Kobi Israel, a photographer based in Israel, specializing in travel and art photography. He has photos and slides from around the world. - Still his main love is artistic photography, experimenting with images, color, composition, texture etc. and combining philosophy, visual poetry and photography.

Black and white photography focused on isolating what is appealing from the chaos that surrounds us. A new series of time exposure night photography that explores this same idea and attempts to look at common objects in the photographically uncommon light of night time.

He began his artistic career doing pen and ink renderings of historical architecture. From 1984 to 1990 he operated a mail order business selling these drawings on calendars, prints, and related items. He began painting in 1980, first in gouache, then in acrylics. Artists whose work he admires and draw inspiration from include Edward Hopper, Charles Sheeler, Richard Estes and Vermeer. He is most interested in depicting what Alan Watts called the mystery of the ordinary; the workaday world we live in without seeing until we are forced to focus upon it, as in a painting. Nearly all his paintings are based on photographs he has taken, primarily of Southern California scenes, over the years. Though it was never his intention to depict nostalgic scenes, many of the images he has painted have disappeared or been radically altered in the ever-changing landscape that is Southern California. Thus nostalgia is thrust upon the works. But the distinctive light remains, which is what he attempts to capture in his painting. That, and the built environment that we humans inhabit, where nature manifests itself only in clipped shrubs, weed-like palms, thirsty lawns and the omnipresent cerulean sky. As a painter, he is self-taught. In his day job, he works as an Art Director and Graphic Designer.

Living in the country gives her a different perspective on the landscape around her. She loves old things, and trys to capture the old with the now. She wants to progress to including people in these scenes, but has finding it hard to find willing models being in the country.

For many years her camera has always been a constant companion. Photography is a unique tool, a great form of artistic expression to seize very individual moments and to give them her own personal view. Fascinated by other countries and nations, she has been travelling to great places all over the world and was gifted with many new impressions. None of her photographies is manipulated or arranged in any way, consciously they naturally reflect what has been offered to her in that very special moment. Often she focus on details and close-ups, like to take them out of their original context, give them a new identity and meaning. Her work is also influenced and inspired by light reflections, colour contrasts and outlines.

Transition. Time is the theme of this photo series. Using flowers and his handmade object d'art as catalyst, time shows it's appearance on the photographic paper. He wants to express time in a photographic way and wants the viewers joining to feel the time. The process of decay witnessed through his lenses is like quietly fading away. Is like brutally crashing down. Sometimes their beauty.

Phil Artez began photography in 1982. Now he features several galleries in black and white where photographs of ballet, statues, mannequins, fine art nudes, Venice carnival, journeys, portraits and experimental work is presented.

Piovan has spent in contact with pictures and colours, he has seen passing through his eyes innumerable memories, thoughts and remembrances that he has considerated in geometries of colours, rhythmical compositions where the stroke of the brush crosses the picture as a musical score. Maurizio Piovan paints to be in contact with hisself and to liberate his own energy, comunicating the force of his soul.

He believe that in each person there is a glimpse of art. All we have to do is discover it. He also believe that some of us have the fortune to be extremly sensitive to the world around us and perceive it in a way others don\'t. What makes his art unique? Vision, and the way he use the light to paint it. When he think of a certain element in life, simple or more complex, he see it in the form of a metaphor, he try to create the perfect image to express what he picture in his mind. He work a lot on his images, he start from an idea and then he think about the proper light and the proper model, also the best setup. He invest not only money in his art, but also a lot of soul. If He\'d have to say what defines his style that would be his soul.

The approach towards photography is highly subjective. With several media he captures the world in which he lives, not focussing on technique but on contents, on the feeling which originates in the situation or place he is in. Recently digitalisation came in and akts as another type of photographic medium which allows an enrichment of pictures.

For her, photography has never been about what it is or where it is. She leaves that to photojournalists. She saw black-and-white photography as having more to do with form, composition, line, light and shadow. That is what distinguishes it from color photography, which can pass on the merits of wonderful, saturated color alone. To that extent, she photographs only in black and white.
