So last night at the splendid pub Albion in Barnsbury, my friend Florian told me about an exhibition up in Edinburgh featuring William Eggleston. The exhibition features 24 5×7 format colour photographs and document scenes of day-to-day life in Memphis. All of the images were taken in 1974 but have only recently been printed for the first time.
Great older article from The Observer about Eggleston can be read here
I have to admit it’s rare, after I moved to London, feeling I’m missing out on things. However today I realized that my favorite Danish museum, Louisiana, which is placed north of Copenhagen, are the first in the world to show a big retrospective collection of Richard Avedon’s work after his death in 2004.
Read previous post about Avedon.

Düsseldorf graduate Candida Höfer (born 1944) shows her latest large-format photographs of empty interiors at Ben Brown Fine Arts in London right now.
Of all the Düsseldorf Art Academy students, Candida has to be the driest one to my knowledge?!
I was out discovering one of the forgotten places of Copenhagen with my friend Rasmus. It’s called “Haveforeningen Musikbyen.”
