La Montagne Vintage Alpine Magazine

The first thing that caught my eye at the flea market on Saturday was the beautiful cover photograph in black and white sitting in a box on the ground. Looking through the pages were more captivating images, and a beautifully simple graphic design quality. This later the issue, the more graphically overloaded it became, including the simple change to color photographs and typeface on the cover which already detracted from the appeal. So I stuck with the early editions, three ranging from 1959-1967, in which there are some advertising gems, unique typography combinations and great images that you'll see below. 

I love the graphic element of these black and white ski run maps having lived in an age when everything is in color.

The typography! The equipment! The style!

The quirky graphic design!

The hoods! The sunglasses! The powder! The backdrop! The trudging!

The purity of the page layout! That perfect ski run! The rocky mountain peak contrasting that soft powder!

The line weight variations! The blunt endings of these paths that begin and end nowhere!

Le Plateau Art Space Paris

Alejandro Cesarco at Le Plateau Paris. This space inspires me each time because I find new works that make everyday things feel more special through someone else's lense. The world becomes more bearable because within the most banal moment you can learn to find inspiration and beauty.

I love these works that put things like book indexes in a new context for reexamination. I like the scientific quality of the piece on regret that is taken from the four literary genres: Romantic, Comic, Tragic & Ironic, with photographe from Jean luc Godard's film 'Une Femme Mariee' 

Kashmiri Boaters and a beautiful blog

The images from 'Search Kashmir' are so beautiful and rich- so emotional. The post compares the shots of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Brian Brake, a decade apart, and then Brian Braks with Steve McCurry, four decades apart.

I feel like a need to go there and see these bodies in motion.
