HOMES

Where I've been sleeping this summer...
All the videos have been made with the movie director app on iPhone. It's not quality but these are the epic flags of our lunar voyage through the United States.

Home 1 - Echo Park, Los Angeles


Home 2 - Venice Beach, Los Angeles


Home 3 - Joshua Tree, California


Home 4 - Paris, Las Vegas


Home 5 - San Francisco

Homes missing: Palo Alto the Steve Jobs and Zukerberg town, Palm Springs motel, the Golden Nuggets in Las Vegas freak hotel, Grand Canyon, Barstow the ghost town in the middle of nowhere and our amazing flat in the Lower East Side in New-York.

Bruce Davidson


Bruce Davidson is, like Martin Parr > see article <,  another photographer from the famous Magnum agency.
In this interview he looks like one of the old men my brother used to fish with. But he's definitely more than a retired sunday fisherman. He appears like a shaman blessed by photography "I have this vision of highways and trees, of the nature that always find a way to live even under concrete."What a nice metaphor to describe the city of angels...

His cliches of the city are one of the most poetic I've ever seen. Like most people, I guess, I'm tired of urbanscapes in black and white that have invaded every tasteless living rooms and "design" restaurants. Davidson's cliches show a more unexpected face of the city, the reverse side.

This interview has been proposed by my friend Monica, a very passionate and smart girl who has very interesting artistic tastes.


"If I am looking for a story at all, it is in my relationship to the subject - the story that tells me, rather than that I tell" Bruce Davidson

Marina Abramovic: An Artist's Life Manifesto



I found this today and now I want a human cake for my birthday.

This video was made during Abramovic's happening at the MOCA in Los Angeles :

An artist should avoid falling in love with another artist
