Just as Dabin Ahn was wrapping up preparations for his solo exhibition, his father died. This body of work lingers in that loss.

"The Metropolitan Museum of Art Puts 490,000 High-Res Images Online & Makes Them Free to Use"

The number of art pieces alone is staggering to contemplate. Having them freely available to browse is incredible, and to then put a #HiRes #scan for all of them into the #PublicDomain is astonishing.

A lifetime of #museum visits to view remarkable #art without a lifetime of travel. No, you don't get exactly the same experience, but holy brushstrokes, Batman...!!!

Our top story: Photographer Jordan Vonderhaar spent months using a modified digital camera to reveal the militarization of the #Texas border in stark infrared. https://www.texasobserver.org/the-river-and-the-fever-dream-photo-essay/

#photography #art #politics #USpol #immigration #military #news

A trio of men from border patrol stand knee deep in the water, one holding a pole. Behind them is thick foliage and the border fence. The scene is highlighted in stark colors because of an infrared filter, with the water gray, and the plants a bright orange red.

A converted digital camera can use infrared light to reveal Texas border militarization—in the same way the armed forces once scanned for enemies from the sky.
