AN EXPLORATION OF NUDITY

Here is the flyer for an upcoming book/exhibition of photography of Gabriel Tané Colello that I designed earlier this year. Its a fresh concept with a classic execution. Stay tuned for the release dates!

The 'Mountain Man'

Below is an excerpt from Hell's Angels by Hunter S. Thompson. (Also wrote 'Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas'). Hunter spent a year on the road with the Angels in the 1960's, documenting their marauding ways. This paragraph reminds me of a good friend of mine who is known around our parts as the 'Mountain Man'. Below may help to explain a little about his own personal brand of 'justice'

"In the Carolinas they say 'hill people' are different from 'flat-lands people', and as a native Kentuckian with more mountain than flatlands blood, I'm inclined to agree. This was one of the theories i'd been nursing all the way from San Francisco. Unlike Porterville or Hollister, Bass Lake was a mountain community... and if the old Appalachian pattern held, the people would be much slower to anger or panic, but absolutely without reason or mercy once the fat was in the fire. Like the Angels, they would tend to fall back in an emergency on their own native sense of justice – which bears only a primitive resemblance to anything written in law books. I thought the mountain types would be far more tolerant of the Angels' noisy showboating, but – compared to their flatlands cousins–much quicker to retaliate in kind at the first evidence of physical insult or abuse."

Anyway a great read if you get the chance... ;P

GARBAGE

Ah a little bit of nostalgia... I used to get these cards in gum packets when I was a kid. Back when the term 'politically correct' was buried somewhere under a pile of nude photos of Pauline Hanson. I'd forgotten about them until I needed some inspiration the other day & looked them up! There's heaps more on the web so go forth and relish in the disgustingly beautiful "Garbage Pail Kids'
