Les nuz are back

C’était le buzz d’il y a quelques mois. La chaine Comédie reprenait le concept de NakedNews, des informations présentées par de belles filles et des hommes bien bâtis se déshabillant en les présentant. Et voilà que cette actu revient puisque des gest-stars comme Oksana d’Hacourt et Laurent Weil étaient hier les présentateurs du show. Perso avant les Nuz j’avais jamais regardé les infos avec autant d’attention… lire la suite

“from my cold, dead hands”

Website of Kyle Cassidy’s book ; Armed American : Portraits of Americans and their guns. Largely known for his fashion and portrait photography, Cassidy became interested in photographing gun owners during the 2004 Presidential Election. 

“This isn’t a book about guns. It’s a book about people.”

 

The Brady Campaign (USs leading anti-gun coalition) estimates there are indeed 192,000,000 guns in America, owned by 39% of the population ! Whether the exact number, it’s still an awfull lot of people. “I started wondering just who they were, what they looked like, and how they lived. Such was the genesis of Armed America: Portraits of American Gun Owners in Their Homes. The idea was to photograph a hundred gun owners, in their homes, and do a gallery show. I figured this would take about two years. But very soon after I started, it became evident that my ambitions were too low. My mailbox flooded with letters from people I didn’t know wanting to participate — I realized that I could probably photograph a hundred people in two months, but it wasn’t a number of people that was important, it was their stories — a cowboy in Texas, a survivalist in Montana, a deer hunter in Pennsylvania, a sheriff in Georgia, a soldier in Idaho…. What I really needed, I realized, was to get moving, to drive across the country and find America somewhere between here and there.“  says Kyle Cassidy.
