Since 1969, Mitchell Funk has been a Minimalist Photographer. His signature style focuses on reducing pictorial elements to their essentials. In this recent image, shot in 2023, he continues the tradition but takes it to a new level. Funk captures a magic moment of a flock of alternating dark and light-colored pigeons in flight. He frames the shot as if it were a painting by Kenneth Noland...

Yoshinori MIZUTANI (*1987, Japan) kawau 004, 2015 Archival pigment print on Hahnemuhle Fine Art Baryta paper 28 x 42 cm (11 x 16 1/2 in.) Edition of 5 plus 2 AP; Ed. no. 1/5 print only Yoshinori Mizutani's (*1987, Japan) works suggest new expressive possibilities that mix the domestic traditions of personal and street photography with those of foreign conceptual photography. Mizutani graduated from the Tokyo College of Photography in 2012. He has won a number of prestigious awards including Japan Photo Award in 2013 as well as Foam Talent Call and Lens Culture Emerging Talents Top 50 in 2014. His series Tokyo Parrots was on view at this years Bienne Festival of Photography in Bienne/Switzerland. His foray into photography is fairly recent, he started 5 years ago. Nonetheless, his photographs do demonstrate an innate understanding of how forms, colours, textures and depth translate to the pictoral plane. He is working with a visual vocabulary that has been well established by the work of many photographers active today. Mizutani’s work serves as a good gauge of the visual tropes and photographic styles that are prevalent among young photographers in Tokyo. „The themes of my work are the everyday and the familiar. What is familiar to me, however, could be new to the viewer. It could also be revelatory or something previously overlooked. It is the viewers’ varied responses to and interpretations of images, which makes photography interesting." – Yoshinori Mizutani 'KAWAU(2015) I have a growing interest in birds inhabiting Tokyo since I completed my previous series ‘Tokyo Parrots’. ‘KAWAU’, which is a Japanese term for cormorant, composes the second part of my trilogy on birds. Similar to the parakeets captured in ‘Tokyo Parrots’, kawau has increased dramatically in number over the past decade and now their over population is causing troubles to the human life as well as local ecosystem in several parts of the country. Despite their reported negative impact and reputation, it is breathtaking to watch a big flock of birds, and through my photography I want to reveal their existence, which makes our everyday urban landscape somehow surreal.' – Photography, Art, Japan, Sky, Abstract, Landscape, Nature, Sky, Birds on the wire...
