Katherine Wolkoff has a solo show opening this month at Sasha Wolf Gallery!

Katherine Wolkoff's pictures of these birds, inherently formal and archival, reveal the artist's affection for her subject. The photographs seduce the viewer with their anthropomorphized staging; the white background, hint of backlight, and close proximity create an intimate relationship between us and the birds. The choice to photograph the subjects in near silhouette evokes how birdwatchers identify species in the wild. In Wolkoff's photographs, this aspect brings the birds- in whatever moment they were posed, whether at rest, about to take flight, or even socializing- strangely back to life.

Timothy Saccenti created the body of work, Shadow Poppets, for Kid-in.  

A platform for the diverse perspectives of a wide range of international and local designers and photographers, artists and thinkers, focusing on the singular subject of childhood.

We exist as a magnet for unique and creative expression regarding this singular moment in existence, left of field from the typical approach. Concepts of normal and abnormal are unavoidably held to question – but always with unfailing humor and respect.

Parents and artists ourselves, our goal is to return as genuinely as possible to the rarified view of the child, achieved only by setting our minds free.

This magazine is a celebration: of the magical realism inherent in childhood, and of the surreal nature of its imaginative realm.

The Wall Street Journal features Holly Andres' series "The Fall of Spring Hill", currently on exhibition at the Robert Mann Gallery in NYC.

Rebecca Horne interviews Holly about her work.  

RH: How do you go about planning and executing such detailed images? Can you briefly explain your process?

HA: To borrow a distinction coined by Jeff Wall, I’m more of a farmer rather than a hunter. Although I have a really perceptive ‘internal camera,’ I’m not a photographer that shoots daily. I usually embark on a photo project with a prevailing theme in mind for the entire series and then, rather systematically, craft each individual photograph. Typically an idea evolves from a life experience, memory or conversation that elicits a powerful image (or ‘filmstrip’) in my mind. The way that I work requires a lot of pre-production, much like preparing for a film shoot, as well as an extensive post-production phase. Often my work involves the tension between an apparently approachable subject matter and a darker, sometimes disturbing subtext. I’m interested in the cognitive dissonance that can result from employing formal elements such as bright colors, decorative patterns, theatrical lighting and characters that reflect stereotypes of innocence, girlish femininity and motherhood to address unsettling themes.
