“它们把生命留在了自己制造的伤口里。”－维吉尔评蜂
《蜜蜂》为了敲击人们对这一群体的刻板认识，而不是提供插画式的印证：他是一个人，不是一类人；他不能被社会演练出的公式所预期。尘埃落下，有人挥手弹开，认为不值一提；有人将它们全部吸收，布满全身。在不足以面对困境的时候，“蜜蜂们”选择“把生命留在自己制造的伤口里”，以度过生活中的坎坷。－摄影师陈哲
陈哲，成长在北京，毕业于美国帕萨迪纳艺术学院摄影与艺术专业。近日，陈哲首本摄影集《蜜蜂》由假杂志社及陈哲本人正式联合出版发行。点击前往购买页面。
Brought up in Beijing, China, Zhe Chen is a photo-based artist currently living in Los Angeles and southern China. Over the past five years, Zhe Chen has created a series of projects focusing on body modification, human hair, identity confusion, post-traumatic stress disorder, and memory. Her latest project, titled Bees, is a document of self-mortification among a community of disaffected Chinese. The difficult nature of her subject is made more complex by her lyrical approach, identifying the physical self-destruction of her subjects as an act of spiritual cleansing. – 2011 Inge Morath Award Winner Announcement

特拉维夫艺术家Ofra Lapid制作了很多废弃房屋的小模型，这些模型都是以一名业余摄影师在北达科塔州拍摄的废弃房屋为模板。等模型都制作完毕后，他又将这些小房子放置在灰色背景前，拍摄成照片。在复制和再造的过程中，探索真实与虚构的界限。
Ofra Lapid‘s series Broken houses is based on photographs of abandoned structures neglected by man and destroyed by the weather. The photos are found in the web while pursuing an amateur photographer from North Dakota who obsessively documents the decaying process of these houses. His photographs are used to create small scale models. Afterward, in the studio, the models are photographed again, omitted from their background and placed in gray.

艺术家Rachel Bradley出生于宾夕法尼亚州。
“2006年起，专业从事黑白摄影的我放弃了我的主要创作媒介——相机和暗房，而开始了一些别样的艺术探索方式。运用这些偶然拾得的东西，通过手工和组合，完成了Hellboxes系列。这一系列中承载了我的癖好：运用这些曾经定义了我们生活的物件来救助这个被抛弃了的社会，叙述故事，保存记忆和个人史。我夜以继日不知疲倦的收集这些渺小的却闪闪发光的东西，被丢弃的列表、玩具，色彩缤纷的糖纸，枯叶，组合和存放在利用各种尺寸和材质的格子/箱子中。” – Rachel Bradley
Artist Rachel Bradley born in Pennsylvania. ”Departing from a background of traditional b/w photography, I abandoned the camera and darkroom as my primary artistic medium in 2006 in favor of a different approach. Using found objects, assemblage and handcraft, Hellboxes series have emerged. Hellboxes are containers for my obsessions: for salvage in a throw-away society, for telling stories and preserving memory and personal history with the objects that define our lives. On the street, at work, day in and day out, I collect objects: small, shiny things, discarded lists, lost toys, colorful wrappers, dead leaves. Utilizing containers of different sizes and materials.” - Rachel Bradley

德國畫家Christian Schad （1894－1982）作為歐洲新現實主義（Neue Sachlichkeit）的发起人之一，在達達主義中发展出最初的藝术攝影。1918年他以攝影初发明時塔伯特（H. Fox Talbot）所使用的物體「直接印象法」（不使用照相機，而把物體放置在感光材料上，投光後產生影像的方式），利用剪裁過的紙張和平坦的物體，以 Aristotype Paper成像，发展出“夏德圖像”（Schadograph）。
