MARK COHEN

Thursday, November 21, 2013

Looking at Mark Cohen’s photographs does not induce the normal response to street or snapshot photography. There is no life that continues beyond the caught moment of the frame, or flight of imaginative identification with the depicted subject.

NEW YORK TYPOGRAPHY

Wednesday, June 5, 2013

Probably every self-respecting designer started taking pictures of street typography at some point in their careers (or student days, rather), thinking what an amazing archive this was going to be one day, until the interest started waning and… well, that’s what the Internet and sites like NYC Type are here for, to do the collecting [...]
