a new favorite artist

26 July 2007, 9:11 am

Art by Chris Jordan (also a short interview). Wow. Just, wow.

I don’t think his work needs any words, but a) words are my stock in trade and b) if you’re like me, you won’t just click some random link without some context. So I proclaim that Chris Jordan is the Fugazi of digital photography, because his work is jaw-dropping on a sheer technical level; visceral; beautiful; and deeply (even intrinsically) political without any aesthetic compromise.

Or, more succinctly:

Wow.
