I read on Wikipedia that New Jersey is the sister city (state, whatever) to Stockholm. I also read that I love sisters. And I love Sweden. And of course, New Jersey (”Woodbridge Stand Up”). So it goes without blogging that the swedes Mattias Jakobsson & Peter Ström that make up Konst & Teknik who, along with tech wiz Martin Ström, designed the website Is it possible to make a photograph of New Jersey regardless of where you are in the world?, as well as the identity of the exhibition at Pierro Gallery (which runs from April 6th - May 25) really stoked me. I think I see 4 grammatical mistakes in that last sentence. Laurel Ptak is the person in charge of it. She runs the super nice photo blog I Heart Photograph and is kindly offering PDF versions of the exhibition catalogue there (which are free and physical at the gallery, or a crazy cheap $5 directly from her via email iheartphotograph@gmail.com). I think this entry reads as a struggle but basically Laurel made a great show and K&T made it greater. Or as we say in New Jersey, “wicked pissah”.
