    The Road West,1938 by Dorothea Lange [also & more at liquidnight] Lange photographed this stretch of U.S. 54 in southern New Mexico while she was employed by the Farm Security Administration. During the Depression, this highway was the west-bound route taken by many families who hoped to find work in California. Upon discovering conditions no better than those they left behind, they often returned east. In “An American Exodus” (1939), published by Lange and her husband, Paul Taylor, this image is accompanied by an observation made by someone they met in the field: “They keep the road hot a goin’ and a comin’ … They’ve got roamin’ in their head.” In the vernacular terms of the moment or in the timeless terms of the photograph, this picture is clearly an invitation to travel. from RMN caption from metmuseum

    Takahashi Keiko wears Yohji Yamamoto,1994  In project Landscapes of a Corpse, Japanese photographer  Izima Kaoru * invited actresses and models to reveal their fantasies about a perfect death. [In other news, if you wondered what happened with me in last few days - I just got back from the hospital after some minor intervention that prevented some serious damage to my reproductive system, so I feel very grateful that it’s nothing serious because I’ve seen some women my age and even younger dealing with much bigger issues & problems- ever heard of Molar pregnancy?, no- me either until yesterday…so I just wanted to take this opportunity to remind you all ladies to visit your gynecologist on regular basis, no matter how much you hated it. Stay safe and do take care of yourselves… luvz b;]
