Wilder Mann

They become bears, stags, and devils. They evoke death but bestow fertile life. They live in the modern era, but they summon old traditions – people all over Europe like to dress up. French photographer Charles Fréger has sought out the best of the best and published a book about almost forgotten rituals. Collected over two winters of travel through 19 countries. Take a visual tour of Europe’s wild man traditions.

Love = Love

More than the sum of its parts: Kent Rogowski assembles fantastic puzzles with very surprisingly parts. It was indeed not easy to mix and match all available puzzle pieces to create these wacky variations. »At one point there was around 20,000 puzzle pieces floating around my studio«, Rogowski keeps telling people.

Private Moon

What is fantastic about the moon is that it always gets around a lot. His personal travelling companion Leonid Tishkov is probably the perfect travel mate, as you can see. »Private Moon« is a series of stylized and sentimental photographs of both with a large illuminated crescent moon taken at various locations around the world. Fitting to this setting: J’ai demandé à la lune by Indochine.

A Period of Juvenile Prosperity

At the age of 17, Mike Brodie hopped his first train close to his home in Pensacola thinking he would visit a friend in Mobile, Alabama. Instead the train went in the opposite direction to Jacksonville, Florida. Shortly after, Brodie found a Polaroid camera stuffed behind a carseat. With no training in photography and coke-bottle glasses, the instant camera was an opening for Brodie to document his experiences. When the Polaroid film he used was discontinued, Brodie switched to 35mm film and a sturdy 1980s camera. He spent years crisscrossing the U.S. amassing a collection, now appreciated as an impressive archive of American travel photography. His amazing images of hitchhikers and train hoppers are published in the book A Period of Juvenile Prosperity.
