Ooi thanks to Mr. Tom Bourne for wingin this over, v exciting! : 'The Gallery of Lost Art' TATE

Sneak peek becomes full view in this new site by Tate which offers access, on a very mystical edgy site I might add, to a selection of artworks of the last 100 years that have been lost, destroyed, stolen, rejected, etc. via a variety of reasons such as damage, war, acts of violence, decay, censorship. Fascinating, get nosying at this unique virtual library.

Joan Fontcuberta wins Hasselblad Foundation International Photography Prize 2013

Inspired by the Surrealists, Dada and the power of the documentary to question science, fiction, religion and truth Joan's work is one of the few that feels magical even to the sceptic's sceptic. His 30 year portfolio highlights how ahead of his time he was through its continuous contemporary edge injected with just enough humour to keep your eyes locked. He provides a unique approach to photography and audio-visual documentation, watch this video and see. http://www.hasselbladfoundation.org/hasselbladspristagare-2013/en/

An exhibition of his work at the Hasselblad Center at the Gothenburg Museum of Art Sweden opens on the 25th October, 2013.
