Anna Wolf

Wolf1

Though you might not realize it, you're probably familiar with Anna Wolf's photography. You've probably seen it via the Urban Outfitters catalog or spreads in Domino or Lucky magazine. On her website, she has a stunning portfolio and a section called "Little Books" which I enjoyed featuring her personal handmade-collage-photography books (shown here).

And she also has a new blog, too.

Candida Hofer

I've been spending some time googling Candida Hofer, a German artist, who's been photographing architecture for over 30 years. With spaces devoid of human interaction, there is an eerie, quiet stillness in her photographs that I find arresting.

I've just added these books: Candida Hofer: Architecture of Absence and Candida Hofer: In Portugal to my wish list.
