About

.../miscellaneous - is a personal journal self educational in nature, containing notes and images that inspire me, or that I wish to learn more about - as such, it includes works by other people as noted with full acknowledgment and credit to authors and sources.

I also share content of my own making that I think is worth sharing with a larger audience. If there is any work by others who object to having their work posted here, I will remove the content if so requested.

Matt Niebuhr - Works ...examining the threshold at which ordinary visibility ends and perception begins... is a site featuring my work exclusively.

Intersecting Images : a "blog" with musings about art, photography and culture - begun in 2005

Time is short. 


Ars longa,
vita brevis,
occasio praeceps,
experimentum periculosum,
iudicium difficile.

art [technique, craft] is long,
life is short,
opportunity fleeting,
experiment dangerous,
judgment difficult.

GERHARD RICHTER, KÖLN - COURTESY GERHARD- RICHTER-ARCHIV DRESDEN
“There was the painting of a warship that had been hit by a torpedo. It was shown in 1964, in the first gallery show of a painter who was still unknown at the time. It looked serious and dramatic, with the calm water in the distance, the inconspicuous silhouette of the ship and, underneath it all, a gigantic explosion. But then it disappeared.” via
