This is crazy and unbelievable.

This is crazy and unbelievable. I just had an email exchange with Stefan Becht, an old friend who is in the promotional business in Germany, and we were brainstorming about some possible projects we could work on together. We have not worked together for maybe four years now. As it turns out, the project that we worked on in 1998 is still live and up and running. It was my very first website. (I used to work in broadcast and print before)... It is a bit spooky. I built this thing in GoLive2, as far as I remember. It was an exhibition for contemporary American Photography in Wiesbaden, Germany. The participating artists were: Erica Baum, Barbara Bosworth, Andrew Bordwin, Catherine Chalmers, Peter Garfield, Lauren Greenfield, Laura Larson and Kunié Sugiura. I think most of the artist did not have access to the site, and I remember that it was never Q/A¹d, so some links are just bad. The Site is also designed like a catalogue in some ways. It takes several clicks to actually get to any real content. And the pictures were all designed for a 28.8 connection, so they are tiny. The site is bilingual however and it is incredibly easy to switch between languages... for all of you who like to do that 10 times during a visit. Well, you can go and visit the site. Please do so at your own risk, it is a quite special experience... just remember, this site is older than artnet.com or eyestorm. Enjoy, the photographs are still very powerful and several of the artist have currently exhibitions (Peter Garfield) or large features in Magazines (Barbara Bosworth in Blind Spot)...:Hot Spots, Contemporary American Photography
