And sometimes they leave something behind. Maybe not long. It too will likely die. Hopefully not today.
Last night Howard Stein, investment guru of Dreyfus Corporation fame, passed away after a stroke at his home in Southampton this week, the New York Times reports. What the Times obituary completely leaves out, however, is the generous support Stein gave to the photography world in the last 13 years of his life, via JGS, Inc., the Joy of Giving Something Foundation. The organization, which he was very involved in, supported individual photographers in the collection, as well as the serial New Photography shows at the Museum of Modern Art, a dvd documentary series and many titles published by Nazraeli Press. The foundation’s website hosts the online Forward Thinking Museum and contest, which help drive interest in an obsession of his: the future. He was known to tell young photographers to stop looking back at the past, and only think forward, ahead to the future. — Lisa Kereszi
Extremes
“The short-lived bubble economy at the end of the 1980s was a period of collective hysteria, a crazy time of frothy fortunes, pie-in-the-sky projects, and lavish living that suddenly evaporated. The impact of the crash of the stock market and land prices has had profound consequences, hammering banks, businesses, investors, borrowers, customers, and employees.”
—Jeff Kingston on Japan’s “lost decade.”
“I cut my leg with a circular saw (…) I knew I had cut myself, but I didn’t feel any pain (…) It was some kind of extreme emotional state.”
—Yamatsuka Eye describing Hanatarash’s second live performance in Osaka, 1984.
