Jeremy Seitz Joins Advisory Board

Originally published 10.9.2020

We are incredibly happy to welcome Jeremy Seitz—tech leader, developer, hacker, and experienced team lead—to the Space for Arts advisory board.

Hailing from Switzerland where he has lived with his wife and daughter for the last fourteen years, Jeremy was recently named Chief Technology Officer at TX Markets, the biggest classifieds and marketplace platform in Switzerland where he’ll create “next-level” approaches to how marketplaces work. It’s a big job, one that has him excited about bringing various marketplace entities within TX Markets together under one cohesive system.

Jeremy is no stranger to marketplaces. Four years ago, he became the CTO of Ricardo, one of Switzerland’s largest marketplaces, similar to eBay. While there, he oversaw a huge team, updated the company’s outdated tech, and turned them into to a very modern, very streamlined company with 100,000 transactions a week and over a million users. His work at Ricardo led […]

William Claxton

 

“Photography is jazz for the eyes.”

 

— William Claxton

 

Of course we love William Claxton’s record covers, another great example of the cross-pollination between photography and music. Claxton’s books remain in publication, but did you know that he is also credited with creating the ‘first fashion video’ with his 1967 film Basic Black, shot with his wife Peggy Moffit? A must-watch, and a must-revisit source for a wealth of ideas.

Looks Galore: Cass Bird

Cass Bird has a whole career of documenting and portraying femininities, so it makes sense that she shot this amazing group portrait of the leaders of the Women’s March on Washington for Vogue in a Bronx warehouse studio. It’s the intensity of this shot that grabs us, the engagement of each and every subject as they look poised to burst out of the frame like sprinters leaping out of the starting gate. But the shot also telegraphs the electricity of the group, ready to act together for a common purpose– while notably the story behind the photo shoot tells that this was only the second time the contingent had all met each other.  Iconic.

Good News: Ektachrome

By now you’ve heard that Kodak is bringing its legendary film stock Ektachrome back into production. We can’t wait! Why not Kodachrome too? KODAK explains that the skills required to successfully develop Kodachrome have been lost when the film stock was discontinued. Here’s to hoping that Ektachrome sees the same return to usage that vinyl records and analog cassette tapes have enjoyed in recent years.

Phyllis Posnick

“I don’t have a favourite image. What I love is that things change, accidents happen, the creative process keeps evolving. I love to have fun. I like to do photos with a wink at the subject and not be deadly serious. I like fantasy. We need to dream.”

Disco Mars

 

In the Eyes of Laura Mars, Faye Dunaway is a fashion photographer suddenly struck with second sight: the ability to see a serial killer’s spree heinous deeds from a first-person vantage. Terrifying— but thankfully set to a funky disco beat.
