“FROM THE FILM SET OF CORIOLANUS” by Kalpesh Lathigra on Photo Booth on the New Yorker

January 23rd, 2012 by dmb media

This week Anthony Lane reviews Ralph Fiennes’s film adaption of Shakespeare’s “Coriolanus.” The photographer Kalpesh Lathigra took the production as an opportunity to shoot two different projects—although, he admitted, he hadn’t read the play. “Julius Caesar was my Shakespeare,” he told me. The first project, was a more conventional series of production stills. The second was a series of large-format photographs, shot with a 5×4 camera, “where the actors are not the prominent players on stage but merely part of the wider tableaux of the set,” Lathigra said. Here’s a selection of those images.

Diver & Aguilar’s Interactive “Respect” Campaign for The Barcelona Foundation.

January 19th, 2012 by dmb media

Respect is an important value, both on and off the pitch. We should accept everybody else, even when they are different from us.

Respect the colours, identities, team mates, opponents, referees and fans. Respect all opinions and points of view. In a wider context, respect for others begins with self-respect.

Diver & Aguilar’s portraits of the Barcelona Players have been used in the online “respect” Campaign digitally broadcast to the 100,00 Capacity of the Camp-Nou. The concept in support of Respect is that anyone can email there picture to The Barcelona Foundation and have their image broadcast on screens live during the game next to the images of  Barcelona Players themselves.

 Supported by: Social Work “la Caixa”

In Collaboration with: UEFA RESPECT, UNESCO CATALUNYA, Lilian Thuram Foundation
