conversations with bricks and concrete
January. 28. 2012
“And if you think of Brick, for instance,
and you say to Brick,
“What do you want Brick?”
And Brick says to you
“I like an Arch.”
And if you say to Brick
“Look, arches are expensive,
and I can use a concrete lentil over you.
What do you think of that?”
“Brick?”
Brick says:
“… I like an Arch””
-Louis Kahn

Fag, as in cigarette, you pervs!
Salute to the smoker- woman to woman.
This probably isn’t a stellar shot, but I enjoy the moment in it- the position she chose to indulge in this particular cigarette. There had to be some affinity there- SXSW weekend in Austin…somewhere around dirty sixth.
uh huh

Photo shoots like this one are the highs of photo-journalism…
the coming together of things:
my love
for people/character/art/ architecture/ photography/ wandering/ doing/ making/ learning/
and sunlight
Meet Frank Welch.
If you haven’t heard of him you should look him up here.
To say he has moulded the shape of regional modernism here in Texas may be an inadequate beginning…the man with the hat has switched them out often.
His collected photography can be found here.
Look for my Profile interview with him in the next issue of COLUMNS!
