A brief history of Greg Durrell.
Once upon a time in a land that stretched from sea to shining sea, a boy dreamed the same dream every night. He dreamed of a world of clean lines, flat surfaces and simple forms. He dreamed of a society whose machines mimicked the efficiency of nature. He dreamed of a land where beauty lay in creativity, and achievement was measured by innovation. He dreamed of a world where everybody had brand new biodegradable socks every morning and V8 juice came out of the taps instead of water. He dreamed of a place where peace was inevitable because love was in every image, every glance and every action. And every morning when he woke up, he set to work making his dream come true.
Work completed at the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Games was under the design direction of Leo Obstbaum and VP of Brand & Creative Services Alison Gardiner. A Special thanks to Cory Ransom for helping photograph the work.

Andrés Medina was born in Madrid in 1978. He works as art director at an advertising agency in Madrid, Spain.
In his work as a photographer only uses analog cameras, mostly medium format. It started with digital photography but when two years ago he discovered the medium format cameras and began to use different films, he realized he loved traditional photography chemicals, the developing and photographic enlargements. From that moment on, he only use analog cameras, has a Yashica Mat 124g, Lubitel 2, two Zenza Bronica (S2 and EC-TL) with a few lens, Canon AE-1 Program, Olympus XA2…
Andrés taught himself to use these cameras and measure the light, asking other photographers and seeing the work of the ‘great photographers’ in books and internet.
He like to capture special moments in his life and his aim is to keep them alive and safe in his photographic memory. He try to convey a sense of emotion within every photograph he make.
In general he seek out places which you wouldn’t usually expect to be photographed.

“I´ve been drawing since I was little. At school I had notebooks filled with drawings instead of notes. I used to tattoo my buddies with a black ink pen. I used to draw on any kind of surface when I was bored… I believe its what I do best. Its also the best way for me to comunicate things I cant find words for… Its a theraphy, its a hobbie, its a job,its what makes me happy.” Eduardo Recife

DEMO is the studio of designer Justin Fines. Founded in Detroit in 1997, DEMO creates work that strives to inspire and inform. Designing across multiple media, we hope to create work that is both playful and direct.
The love of simplicity, thoughful process and discovery through experimentation are at the core of our work.
Create: cre-ate (verb): to give rise to something; to produce inventions or art. These two descriptions are the two-fold structure that Photographer Sean Getti inhibits. Raised in Toronto, Canada, Getti rose to the art scene almost a decade ago. With an innate talent to express his art visually, Getti elevates what others may view as unadorned-and fashions pieces of work that verbalize the focal point of the image.
Not only highly respected for his instinctive eye, Getti establishes communication between the observer and his work. Leaders in industries across the board have sought Getti to capture their look, brand, message and voice. From the corporate world to independent companies to individuals, Getti’s ability to translate their ideas and trademarks maintains a standard that not only impacts their designated demographics, but also an appreciation by all others.
Always proficient and takes pride in his craft- Sean Getti continues to push boundaries and techniques to form original editorials, beauty shots, and portraits. Getti creates landscapes and distinguished images, from the initial shot to the editing stage – a phase in Getti’s inventive process that has gained him high notability. Already setting the standard for many- Getti re-invents ways to depict and embody the heart of the image.
“I’ve always had the drive and desire to share with those around me how I perceive and view things… I continually want to converse with the world the way I see it”. – Sean Getti.
Hello, I’m ZSO. (On paper you may also know me as Sara Blake.) I’m an Interactive Art Director, Designer, and Illustrator living and loving in New York City.
ZSO (pronounced |zō|) is a collection of letters that I find aesthetically and phonetically beautiful. Together they make sound much like “so,” the adverb which means “to such a great extent.” I am a person of extremes, for better or worse (most often the latter), so the ring of it was fitting, and the moniker has since stuck for good.
I graduated from New York University’s Gallatin School of Individualized Study with a concentration in Graphic Art and Postmodern Studies—I’ve been working in design and art direction ever since.
These days you can find me at Euro RSCG where I focus on digital design. But by night I also double as an illustrator for clients such as Yen Magazine, The KDU, Hurley, SGCNY, and Koko & Me. I’ll also be having my very first solo gallery show at Friends of Leon Gallery in Sydney, Australia, September 2010.
Ever since some creative know-it-all came up with this widespread witticism, saying “One Picture is Worth Ten Thousand Words”, the necessity to say anything about Oliver Rath is basically obsolete. Year of birth (78), Place of birth (Heidelberg) – who cares about it anyway? His mover/shaker-mentality, his DJing-past, his talent to translate boredom of one thing into a passion for another one – it is all nice things to say about him, but you actually don’t need to know. His DIY-enthusiasm, that built up the whole technical foundation of his existence as a photographer, his mindscape that no school in this world could have teach him, his creative lunacy that’s hidden beneath this Frankish and easy going surface – they are all pretty ornaments for writings like these, but still: anything you could say about him doesn’t come close to the impression of his pictures.
Those are pictures of a maniac. His imagery is infiltrated by codes of urban hedonism, yet ruptured by sometimes prankish, sometimes caustic humour. It is a hard and rough picture language, a language without diplomatic attachments or compromise, but fuelled with unchecked temper and elegant to subtle sense for semantics. He takes everything in that makes a good picture: geometry, contrast, perspective, arrangement. But more than that, he’s a master of those little things, that push a good picture to become an outstanding one. He is the advocate of maximizing impacts. He’ll find the big talk even in the smallest gestures. He might just slam you in the face with a picture. But he might lick your wounds with the very next one. His sense for the right sentiment is without comparison, be it on national or international scale. Call him man of the moment. What do I say? Call him a depicting chronicler of the Zeitgeist. Well, why do I say so much anyway? Just find one of his pictures and call him your new favourite photographer.

The Visual Work Of Mike Lemanski. My main interests and expertise lie in printed matter, posters, publications, catalogues, paintings, found ephemera, drawings, stationary, packaging, and visual identities.
I wouldn’t say I have a single defined style more of an overall perspective on my work, utilising considered typography, illustration and print. I like to find things that interest me and respond, sometimes this gives them a new perspective. I also tend to sway towards the use of primary colours and try to mix media, generally working with gouache, vectors, pencil and ink. I like to live within the idea that design is art.
My site has just re-launched, so new work is being posted all the time, there’s lots to sort through yet and lots to do! I have a list as long as my arm with new ideas and projects, follow me on my blog or on twitter, you know how it is.
