NOWHERE GALLERY




Italian photographer Riccardo Boldorini wrote to introduce me to his work. He describes his process in the following way: "The images at issue have been achieved from the sheerly photographic point of view, with the employ of different techniques: tungsten-coated films with daylight and chemical pollution to reach different chromatic choices."

Alex Wilson Photography




Photographer & Art Nudes reader Alex Wilson has recently launched his new website with a really unusual and intriguing interface. It starts off with a tag cloud, but from there it leads you in two different directions and depending of which you chose the results lead to further branches and categories. I've never seen anything quite like it. Alex is looking for feedback on this approach, so I'd like to encourage you to visit the gallery and leave your thoughts on the interface in the comments below.
