Wow! A very succinct and articulate video interview/ retrospectve with activist photographer Allan Sekula on art, globalisation, and his thoughts on the strategies of contemporary activist demonstrations. For what it's worth, both Allan Sekula and Fred Lonidier were artists that I followed most closely when I was in school and whom I still refer back to when I'm trying to sort out new projects.



Why did I search out these old favourites? I was reminded of Mr. Sekula when consumptive.org referred me to the site of Paul Shambroom which is split into two series - one of small town meetings, the other of nuclear weapons. Both create that confrontational potential that I'd always found to be so remarkable in the work of the two aforementioned artists.
