A handful of news from the past weeks

In the past couple of weeks we’ve been busy at the school – first of all with teaching and secondly with updating the website with the wonderful CPOY news. Therefore we have a handful of very different news from the past weeks to share with you.

Andreas Beck’s BA project “Drenge” is published in this month’s edition of the magazine Ud og Se. The magazine is also available online as e-paper and Andreas Beck’s story can be seen at page 46. Andreas Beck graduated in the spring 2014.

From the project “About Dying” by Cathrine Ertmann.

Cathrine Ertmann‘s 7th semester project “About Dying” from the spring 2012 is published in American online magazine Feature Shoot. Cathrine Ertmann writes on Facebook: “Hurra! About Dying and an interview with me is published at Feature Shoot. It’s cool because the American media aren’t so keen on publishing pictures like this. A N.Y. Times editor once told me ‘I think it’s excellent. But honestly, I’m not sure if we can run this’.”

Selfportrait by Angelina Nielsen Owino.

Angelina Nielsen Owino is continuing her visual project, which she started at DMJX in the fall 2012. Angelina Nielsen Owino’s visual project focussed on her own body and questioned the female beauty ideal. Now, Angelina Nielsen Owino is searching for other women to photograph in order to broaden the project. You can read an article about the project in Lokalavisen.

The Thin Line book by Ilaria di Biagio.

Ilaria di Biagio‘s book “The Thin Line” has been selected for the French Le Photobook Fest. Ilaria di Biagio made the project and the first edition of her book as her Visual Project at DMJX in the fall 2011.
