Apartamento





Apartamento May 2010 is out! Sadly, I can't seem to
find out in Los Angeles. Any thoughts?
Surely, someone in LA sells this other than Skylight books?
Any tips, send them my way..












an everyday
life interiors magazine.

"Apartamento is an international editorial project dedicated to the world of interiors, born to tell the story of personal experiences and lifes through the spaces where we live and work. Everyday stories, seen without the usual masks of look-a-like interiors perfect to the millimeter, because in real life variables are infinite and unpredictable since every environment has got its own dynamics and peculiarities that make it special.

Apartamento aspires to be a source of inspiration, a new stimulating force to show how common people live, decorate their homes and react to the same everyday life events that at some point might happen to all of us."

People didn't really ask the question so much as assume that I'm gay. If a woman paints another woman in the nude, it would be interpreted as a painting having to do with a woman's identity. But when a man paints this painting, it's associated with homoerotic activity.

He is in fact straight and lives in New York City with his wife and two children.

The much-anticipated new series of work by Jeff Bark, Woodpecker, is full of dark romanticism. Under the cover of a manufactured night, his young subjects indulge in skinny-dipping, huffing, smoking pot, and moments of introspection echoing Bark’s own memories of his near adulthood.

"Yuskavage has sunk her erotic smurfs into a lime green never-never land that veers a little too close to the juvenile tastes of Michael Jackson's Ranch Art collection, about to go up for auction. Little people journey into the forest past giant Cabbage Patch dolls with pulsating clits. Some of them have come on their faces , or perhaps it's whipped cream." charlie finch

A Cross Section of Scenes
2006
mirrored stickers on paper
23 x 18 inches

The interplay between private exploration and public exposure articulated throughout the exhibition is akin to Fleming’s process of filtering his analytic inspirations – Fluxus approaches to artmaking, structural film and experimental poetry – through a personal exploration of identity, beauty, sexuality and coded communication.
The Mira lamp was designed by Mario Arnaboldi in 1984 and manufactured by Programmaluce in Milan Italy. The lamp is considered rare as it was only manufactured for one year. Unusual design consisting of a heavily weighted base and three rods, the top two rods can be posed at an angle (as shown), straight up or down.

Ahorn is an online magazine dedicated to contemporary photography, directed and edited by Daniel Augschoell and Anya Jasbar.
The principal aim is to give to our readers a tool to know what's happening in contemporary photography, and to offer emergingphotographers an interesting place to bring their work to a wider audience.
