i hate jamie campbell's photography.

If you remember my first post, then you also remember that it was published here some four and a half years ago - some eight-hundred and twenty-three posts which were composed before this last one. It feels like it has gotten away from me, beyond its original intent. And in a strange way I don't feel like contributing to this archive anymore. It might be nicer to leave it as it is.

I am going to start over. If you are interested you can find me here: www.jamiecampbellphotography.tumblr.com

this is the absolute worst documentation ever, but alas the lovely painting-virtuoso Bridget Keating (after some begging and trading), made me these amazing paintings of odey and bebe.

(larger text, in case you actually want to read it).

I participated in a project with Locale Shoes. They are displaying large-scale duplications my photographs in their Montreal stores to raise awareness about local art. They also published a magazine, where I had an interview that you can read above. You can pick the magazine up for free in any store in Montreal, Toronto, or Calgary. It also features Chris Buck, Jessica Eaton, Simon Duhamel, and Amalie Atkins.

hwy 401 eastbound, near kingston. some kind of ice, one roll, into one ditch, through one sign. 'welcome to kingston'. timbits everywhere, coffee on roof, everyone calmly intact. no broken bones, or cameras, or glass jugs, or type-setting drawers.

thanks for the call paul.

2010-12-17T14:45:00.001-05:00

hey there

i just came across your website, because my friend xxxxxx in paris
showed it to me, he has great taste

i think you are just the best photographer and i wish you could do my
portfolio because there are so many lame photographers out there, and
their work is not refreshing like yours.

here, this is me: http://www.modelmayhem.com/xxxxxxx

you see, these photos of me are pretty boring compared to what yours
could be. and look at all the stupid photographers on there ! most of
them don't have clever ideas in the way you do, really it's very rare
to see creative and tasteful work like yours, so when i see your
photos i feel inspired to write to you.

too bad you're far away in montreal. ever come to chicago ? or paris ?

best,

xxxxxxx

2010-12-11T22:43:00.000-05:00

don't necessarily trust film that sat in a car in the deep-deep summer south for a month. chances are the colour might give you some guff.

i thought we established this: no ghost work.

i can't show too much of my new work here:
A) because it doesn't necessarily exist yet, and
B) because it is a secret.

this, i hope, should explain my wilful absence.
