der:die:das:

der:die:das: is a brandnew monothematic magazine made in Zurich, which examines items, objects and various „things“ from everyday life. Next to their meaning in everyday life the items will be put in an art- and design-discourse, in order to reveal the bizzare and the established all at once.
der:die:das: assembles the various perceptions of different disciplines in art and design by various artists, designers and authors in one magazine. According to the alphabet the things will be selected, dissected and analysed. The first issue will start with the letter A for apple.
der:die:das: will be sold in selected magazine- book- and design-stores - or just drop a line to hallo@derdiedas-magazin.com.
Thanks to Kathrin

Stefan Heyne

Amazing unreal pictures by Stefan Heyne, who creates photography art using a unique blurring technique.
"The Berlin-based artist Stefan Heyne (born in 1965) works in a constant exploration of the boundaries between painting and photography. His photographs are never descriptive and don't seek to depict visible reality. Instead, his motives attain autonomy by renouncing the notion of reproduction - a quality long considered to be central to the medium.
Heyne's works are characterised by a vigilant manipulation of the obscured detailing of the objects and spaces shown. The allure of his prints lies in the magical spectrum of their colours, their velvety surfaces and their quality as objects." (photography-now.com)
Stefan Heyne's book "THE NOISE" can be ordered at amazon.de or buch.ch.
