martin klimas





I promise I will update about Pittsburgh soon (I want to get the pictures off Sean's camera first), but in the meantime, let me gush over Martin Klimas.

The Warhol Museum currently has an exhibit of his photography, which features ceramic figurines smashing open, while remaining intact on top. I cannot express how awesome this show was. I found an interview online with Klimas and was surprised to find out he simply drops the pieces, the crash triggers the lights and in that 5,000th of a second, he snaps. Very powerful work, indeed. You can see more at his website
