I love this start to the first "currently loving…" of 2008 with Lisa Congdon’s gorgeous collection of mini photos…
WHO…Lisa Congdon, San Francisco-based artist and co-owner/gallery director at Rare Device.
CURRENTLY LOVING…Tiny vintage one inch photos. I collect them at antique malls and flea markets. Someday I am going to do something amazing with all of them when I have over 500! I love how delicate they are, the expressions on the faces of the people in the photographs, the sepia tones of aged film. Mostly, I love the way they look hung together.
what a fabulous idea!
{happy new year!}
wow these are beautiful!
I love the way lisa displays all of her collections, gorgeous!
Lisa is amazing, and her collections fascinate me.
ooh, I love them too!
I offer some of them with my pieces, along with a shortstory written about the person on the photo, that we don’t know…
i love those!
you know.. i just don’t know why i haven’t been to rare device… shameful
Lisa Congdon is the absolute coolest. The company I work at just licensed a bunch of her images for magnets, and she is such a pleasure to work with–so creative and smart.
LOVE.
I love it! Such a great display. And vintage photos are the best, like little stories waiting to be told.
Oh how interesting. So many nice photos. So many stories behind them. Lovely!
I love them! Old photos are the best. It’s almost like things come out more interestingly when you only get one shot. Don’t get me wrong, I love my digital camera but these are great!
beautiful, beautiful
your whole site is so lovely as always
Wow, what a beautiful display!
so many stories and memories hanging on this wall. i love how lisa displayed these.
I have this collection of vintage postcards i love, but never knew what to do about… I’m definitly doing that on my entrance hall. Thanks! Lisa Congdon is an amazing artist 🙂
