MOVING
FORWARD
I appreciate the aged. As you know…I have a history with stinky cheese that makes me smile; however, I can appreciate the new and fresh and progrssive in food as well. I wouldn’t be able to turn veggies into spaghetti if it weren’t for the Vegetable Twister, after all. Per usual, typically all that is true in food is often true in art. And this Call from Project Basho is looking celebrate new and contemporary photography.
Check out this Call for Entries for ONWARD an annual juried photography competition exclusively featuring the work of emerging photographers whose work that continues to push and evolve the medium. Enter today!

He has also been awarded two Guggenheim Fellowships in 1976 and 1979.
Fink’s work is the subject of numerous books including Social Graces, Runway, Somewhere There’s Music, Boxing, and Night at the Met. Under the early tutelage of Lisette Model, he developed a unique and offbeat style of empathetic reportage. With his distinct visual and political perspective, he has explored the underbelly of human interaction in all its glory and demise exemplified in his celebrated body of work, “Social Graces”.
