The Manipulator
Posted by Fabio 12 October 2009
The Manipulator (1984-1994) will see the light of day again in June 2010 when a new and longly awaited issue will be launched from Copenhagen. The 50x70cm grand magazine featured in its heydays handtinted images taken in Japanese brothels in the the late 1800s, sepia-toned shots of Spanish bullfighters and murky photographs from the albums of the Victorian Egyptologists. I can’t wait for June 2010.

MOTION SCULPTURE
Posted by Fabio 10 October 2009
