Adam Yauch aka MCA Climbing a Cinema Marquee with the Help of the Other Beastie Boys
“I shouldn’t have logged on to the internet today…” that was my initial response when reading the news about Adam Yauch last Friday. The Beastie Boys have been around for as long as I can remember and even though they’ve matured over the years, they always remained young in my eyes. These are the reasons why MCA’s death came as such a shock to me.

Danziger Gallery in Chelsea is exhibiting the work of photographer Evelyn Hofer:

Evelyn Hofer was born in Marburg, Germany in 1922 and died in 2009 in Mexico City. In the years in between, Hofer created a body of work that looked back to the tradition of August Sander and anticipated the color work of William Eggleston, causing her to be called “the most famous unknown photographer in America” by New York Times art critic Hilton Kramer – a devout supporter of her work.
Hofer’s work has influenced such photographers as Thomas Struth, Joel Sternfeld, Adam Bartos, Rineke Dijkstra, Judith Joy Ross, and Alex Soth. And while Hofer’s work has yet to receive a museum show in the United States, in 1994 the Musée de l’Elysée in Lausanne, Switzerland, presented a retrospective of her work, called “The Universal Eye”. In 2005 the German publisher Steidl published an acclaimed monograph, and last year her work was shown in Munich’s Villa Stuck as part of the Goetz Collection in the exhibition “Street Life and Home Stories” alongside the work of the photographers William Eggleston, August Sander, Diane Arbus, Thomas Struth, and Nan Goldin.

Very much looking forward to seeing this show tonight — read more on their website.
