Some photographers so much have their own world. Jon Laytner definitely is a photographer like that. He @normalandboring on Instagram - do not read it as Norma Landboring like I did first, thinking this must be a Swedish female photographer.

Dutch | 1959 - 2023 | Photography / Film
Created meticulously staged, cinematic photographs exploring beauty, identity, sexuality, and societal norms through elaborately constructed tableaux with dramatic lighting and surrealist undertones.








Via the detour of the Düsseldorf Schule I found Simone Nieweg. Of course I was familiar with Gursky and Struth, but Nieweg was unknown to me. Her work distinguishes a bit from the other Düsseldorfers. Nieweg’s subject matter is rural, nature, trees and plants, and her view is somehow introvert, as opposed to most Dusseldorfers who have this extravert, grand expression in their work. Nieweg makes a picture of a cabbage, a shed and a forest.
