Michael Bierut on John Madere’s new blog
John Madere’s July 22 post on his blog is about photographing designer Michael Bierut, who was inside the Pentagram Partners’ New York building while Madere was shooting from a ladder on the other side of Fifth Avenue. Why did the photographer cross the road? Find out. [AK] Jeff Nishinaka’s Paper Sculptures
Like our friends at The Cool Hunter and Paper Crave, we are awed by the paper sculptures created by LA-based Jeff Nishinaka. We like what Jeff says about his chosen medium, “Paper to me is a living, breathing thing that has a life of its own. I just try to redirect that energy into something that feels animated and alive.” Jeff’s eclectic portfolio here. [PW] Photographer John Madere’s new blog is a blast
Yesterday, we previewed John Madere: Portraits of Design. In a sublimely timely move, Madere has launched a blog. One of the first posts is about his shoot with Stefan Sagmeister.
