Photographer James Mollison travels to concerts to photograph the fans, not the performer. Listed here, from top to bottom are fans of The Casualties, P.Diddy and 50 cent. Such a simple idea with subtle and poignant notions of individuality, while refusing to take itself too seriously (I know deep right?).
The show entitled The Disciples, is currently hanging at the Hunt Gallery in New York. To see more portraits from others concerts, check out the NY Times post by Scott Hall.

World-renowned fashion photographer Bruce Weber turns his camera towards TheReal in a special photo-editorial on the Big-Easy. The genesis of the project is of course the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina and the flood of incompetence that followed; but the focus of this special project ended of being the amazing vitality and resilience Bruce found in New Orleans.
In the sixty page spread in this current issue of W Magazine, Bruce mixes street photography, profiles of local icons, and complimentary fashion shots that hides a subtle, cryptic narrative. Sample the images on-line but I recommend purchasing this issue for the photography, and then impress your girlfriend with your new-found appreciation for W. If nothing else, get into it for New Orleans.
Additional Notes.
- _Contributing Writer-Tennessee Williams.
- _Initial research finds no relation between Bruce Weber and Chris Webber, but Bruce doesn’t mind being called B.Web.
