SPAIN Between Granada and Cádiz it’s funny to look for these walls of urban art, it’s like meeting a dream on the street and suddenly, in any corner, seeing a world bursting with colours.
HONG KONG He did it again! Two years after 24h LOS ANGELES, French photographer Karl Hab presents his new book 24h HONG KONG. Here is a little preview for curious people like you 🙂

CARRARA “Fare una residenza significa tentare di lasciarsi alle spalle tutti gli immaginari precostituiti e mettersi in fase di esplorazione e ascolto.” Seguiamo allora con molta curiosità i curatori di ARTECO e gli artisti di Parasite 2.0 e proviamo a vedere “la città dell’oro bianco” con i loro occhi! 🙂
NEW YORK It took three months of calculations to build this reduced model of the Manhattan district, using old and broken electronic parts. Who made this work? Zayd Menk, apparently a very young artist, a 17-year-old student who lives in Zimbabwe. He made this artwork for his school art project.
TANKWA TOWN In the semidesert Karoo – halfway along the R355, a 250km untarred road between Calvinia and Ceres in the Northern Cape Province of South Africa (that means on the longest stretch in the country without petrol stations, nearby assistance, phone signal) – there is a magic place: a temporary city that every year since 2007 appears and disappears in just one week.

PARIS without its Tour Eiffel. Impossible even to imagine, today. But if some French intellectuals would have won their battle, the Iron Lady (Dame de Fer) might have survived for maybe just twenty years or maybe less. The French originally hated it. If not all, certainly an important group of high-profile artists, thinkers and creatives who signed a petition to protest against the tower during its construction. They expressed all their hate towards this “useless” and “monstrous” monument with a love letter to their City of Lights (Ville Lumière) and finesse, published on Valentine’s Day 1887.
SEETIES & THE UNIVERSE. “On the scale of a galaxy, let alone the universe, we’re smaller than we can readily comprehend, but we do have the capacity to wonder, to question, to explore, to investigate, and to imagine. So the next time you stand gazing up at the night sky, take a moment to think about the enormity of what is beyond your vision, out in the dark spaces between the stars.”
