Marge Casey + associates. Asger Carlsen.
Asger Carlsen has won a cult following for his offbeat approach to photography. I like the idea of creating a universe of confusion, he explains. But in a real world. Carlsen got his start working as a staff photographer at a small town newspaper in his native Denmark. But for someone drawn to the absurd it seemed inevitable he'd end up in America. The twisted admiration for American culture, as imagined through the bemused gaze of a cool-as-ice foreigner, has become Carlsen's defining stamp. Now based in New York, he says he always tries to incorporate his thing into his advertising and magazine work. Named a finalist in the 2006 Diesel New Art, it's his strange fine-art photographs that are capturing interest worldwide. I have always been fascinated by the abnormal in the normal, Carlsen says. it's like when a person says something inappropriate at a dinner party and you see people's facial expressions afterwards. That can be very inspirational, especially for someone like me who is so well behaved.

After living in New York for twenty years, Greg Miller returned to his hometown of Nashville to reexamine the city where he grew up. With the help of a John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship, in 2008 Miller began a series of photographs using familiar spaces from his childhood as starting points. Attempting to reconstruct memories by photographing in and around areas of Nashville where he grew up, he often photographs complete strangers cast in scenes drawn from the lasting emotional remnants of his past.

DAVID LEVINTHAL: Mentioned and quoted in The New York Times 2/11 "From That Instant Thrill, Enduring Art, Now for Sale"

02.11.2010
"The New York photographer David Levinthal said he found that using a Polaroid llent itself to experimentation in a way that other cameras didn't. Over the years he has used a Polaroid for some of his most popular images. The Sotheby's sale will include selections from his ?Wild West series, a 1987-89 project in which he created his own imaginary universe using toy cowboys and Indians. There will also be photographs from American Beauties (1989-90), in which he shot buxom, bathing-suit-clad dolls from the 1940s and 1950s. All are 20-by-24-inch prints and their estimates range from $500 to $7,000. (click here to read article).
The tactile and tangible quality of Polaroid is unique, Mr. Levinthal said. There's still something magical about seeing that instant image.?
