Michaela Moscouw - Toast

Toast - Limited Edition post-card set, 200?

Growing up in Phoenix, at least once a week someone would see Jesus in their flower tortilla. Occasionally it would be Mary, and now and then it wasn't a tortilla but the Formica cabinets in a kitchen, the peeling paint on a shed and once it was the long floppy branch of an ocotillo cactus.

I can't help but look for some epiphany when I look through Michaela Moscouw's box of 15 post-cards called, simply, Toast. Its as cryptic as any of her works.

15 black and white postcards, I assume documenting an entire loaf, come in a small card-stock box.

I think Fotohof is the only place to get them at the moment, but you won't find them on the homepage, if you want one, best send an email or I can hook you up. 

The box set costs 15 Euro. Edition of 500

Hallelujah! 

Michaela Moscouw - Bilder 1990-1992

Michaela Moscouw

Bilder 1990-1992  - Catalogue, 1993

This is an exhibition catalogue from the Viennese artist Michaela Moscouw from a show she had in Fotohof in 1993. It is a beautifully designed, simple book that has the feel of a school notebook or a ledger you might have found in an accountants office in  the 60's.

Michaela's work is an on-going series of self-portraits exploring sexuality, feminism, and freudian psychology. Part performance art, part monumental photography, her large format black and white images don't hide the scratches and the dust, but instead celebrate the medium and its roughness. 

This isn't a special edition in any way, other than it has a real bibliophile quality to it and it may be rare someday.
