A few days ago I’ve found Jean-Sébastien Monzani and immediately felt in love by his work! Everything, but specially his short movies. It is the first time (and probably the last) I post a video on this blog, but I couldn’t resist. I’ve selected this one because it is the most beautiful short video I’ve recently seen.

your secret
annie leibovitz
It is so dangerous to get in a book store… you always get out with at least a book. Yesterday I found a wonderful book of Annie Leibovitz called “A Photographer’s Life”. On the Internet it is so hard to find her best works (you can only find his banal works), but when I opened her book it was love at the first sight.
I’ve choose three photos of her to post here. Not they best ones, but the best I’ve found on the Internet. The first because Louise’s expression, the second because the composition and the third because it turned on the most iconic photo from the 80’s - specially because it was taken on the the last hours of life of John Lennon (an artist that I love).

^ Louise Bourgeois, Sculptor (New York)

^ Alice Waters, Restaurateur, chef (New Jersey)

^ John Lennon and Yoko Ono (New York) - 8/12/1980, a few hours before Lennon’s murder
sense

‘Sense’ is another of my favorite photos ever. Tono Stano, from Prague, is another master of photography, mainly known for his black and white photographs of the female body.
henri cartier-bresson
Time for my masters. Henri Cartier-Bresson (1908-2004) was a French photographer, widely known by his works as a photo-journalist. What I really appreciate on his photos are its precise and unique moment joined with his exceptional point of view and composition. I’ve selected my three favorites, each one by its different style. I’m starting a new set called masters.
