DRY LIGHT: FROM THE LAND OF LIGHT AND CULTURE
http://stathatos.blogspot.com/2013/06/from-land-of-light-and-culture.html
Notes on photography, landscape and Greece. June 10, 2013. FROM THE LAND OF LIGHT AND CULTURE. Being as a rule resistant to the charms of kitsch, I never really warmed to the photographs of scantily-clad cabaret dancers prancing about the Acropolis which were shot in the late 1920s by Elly Seraidari (a.k.a. Nelly or, more irritatingly, Nelly’s. Distinctly more interesting is this homage, or perhaps more accurately this détournement. Elly Seraidari, Nikolska. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

DRY LIGHT: THE TWENTY-EIGHT
http://stathatos.blogspot.com/2013/04/the-twenty-eight.html
Notes on photography, landscape and Greece. April 26, 2013. Petros Poulidis: Family gathering, Attica. A print by the still grievously under-rated photojournalist Petros Poulidis, in retrospect perhaps the greatest or at least most vital of mid-century Greek photographers. This is a family gathering in the courtyard of a house near Athens, very likely on some festive occasion. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Αυγή ξηρή ψυχή σοφώτατη και αρίστη.
