Mossball by Don Hamerman

This fine Friday we are delighted to bring a special twist to Browsing the Archives. Photographer Don Hamerman cast his savvy eyes on our vault of editions past with motivation from Ms. Bekman's own imaginativeness. In Don's words:

Inspired by Ms. Jen Bekman's ongoing series, Paired,in which she deftly matches the works of artists and poets, I poured through the 20x200 archives looking for pieces which complemented one another through energy, tone, color, rhythm or simply a visual affinity for their companions. Any readers of this blog who already own one of the featured pieces would do well to complete the pair.

Don, we couldn't agree more!

Eivind by Michelle Arcila and Untitled (Santa Barbara) (2009) by Liz Kuball

Liliuokalani Elementary School 2 by Juliane Eirich and Filter Samples by Jessica Eaton

Contact High by Jeff Lewis and Vogue JUL07:pg145 (Ripeness is All) by Lauren DiCioccio

Balloons by Juliane Eirich and Space and Illusion by Carrie Marill

That's all for now, collectors! I'll have more of Don's thoughtful pairings next week. Until then, why not have a peek at our archives. Perhaps you'll find a pair or two yourself!
