The self-portraits of Chinese performance artist and photographer Li Wei tend to astound; his relationship with gravity is not exactly predictable. Using mirrors, cables, wires and other tools, the artist produces sublime surprises. As he notes in our chat below, "I don’t consider danger very often when doing art."
The Rennie Ellis Photographic Archive was established in April, 2004, eight months after the sudden death of one of Australian's most prolific and gifted social documenters, Rennie Ellis.
Rennie Ellis, photographer and author, who with his images and words has taunted, titillated and tickled our collective fancies for years, has left behind a treasure trove of over half a million images spanning over three decades.
Ellis's photography has concentrated on documenting both popular culture and the demi-monde and examining Australia as a hedonistic society. In his own intuitive way he was committed to capturing on film those moments in time which offer insights into the human condition.
