The Ruins of Motor City

Detroit might have suffered more from the economical crisis than any other US city. French photographers Yves Marchand and Romain Meffre created a beautiful book “documenting” the visual decay of former glorious industrial landmarks.

Ruins are the visible symbols and landmarks of our societies and their changes, small pieces of history in suspension. The state of ruin is temporary by nature, the volatile result of the end of an era and the fall of empires. This fragility, the time elapsed but even so running fast, lead us to watch them one very last time: being dismayed, or admiring, wondering about the permanence of things. Photography appeared to us as a modest way to keep a little bit of this ephemeral state.

I just got back from a few days in NYC… where visual inspirations hit you from all angles… so I thought what better way to start the 2011 blog action… than with this short movie on the NYC fashion spy… aka the Sartorialist…

Happy New Year everyone!
