Brian Dettmer's The Picture Bible

Brian Dettmer's The Evolution of Man

Brian Dettmer's Organic Chemistry

After an evening of particularly disagreeable design, it is sublimely satisfying to find a fresh approach to sclupture. American Brian Dettmer‘s inspired work with altered vintage books reminds me of summers of homemade book safe projects and the set of 1968 Encyclopedia Britannicas that I referred to almost exclusively every day until the advent of the Internet.

Olle Hemmendorff Air Max 90 for Nike

I had a really mature piece ready to post and got distracted by Olle Hemmendorf‘s rendition of the Air Max 90. I’ve never been drawn to Nike’s ethos or aesthetics but I have a lot of respect for them after yet another solid year of inspired advertising.

Last year’s Vintage Running campaign didn’t affect my love of old print ads and catalogues much either. To maintain a lifestyle brand from such dissimilar angles is overwhelming, and a testament to the marketing managers and cool hunters running Nike’s on campus track in Oregon.

David Maisel's American Mine (Nevada 1)

From a first glance, American David Maisel’s photo sets couldn’t show more different subjects in terms of scale and sensibility, but his eye for natural colour gradients captivates me and the thought he puts in to his work is what I only dream most photographers do. The Mining Project shows abandoned copper mines in the southern States, and Library of Dust captures the abandoned remains of cremated psychiatric patients from the former Oregon State Insane Asylum.
