Too Hard to Keep





Too Hard to Keep is an archive founded and maintained by photographer Jason Lazarus. He says, "I have started an archive of photographs deemed 'too hard to keep.' Submissions may include photos of friends, family, pets, places, objects too hard to view again. The reason you can't live with the photo or photo album I do not need to know... I am creating a repository for these images so that they may exist without being destroyed."

See more of the archive (including submission guidelines) here and Jason's personal website here

A project in Olivian Cha's series of shows at the Los Angeles Public library, this one is by Daniel Ingroff in which he "presents "mosaicism.org", a work inspired by photographs and paraphernalia taken from the Art department’s “picture files” - a unique collection of newspapers, magazine clippings and ephemera collected by librarians prior to the advent of the Internet." See more here.

archive • belfast exposed








as they describe it, "belfast exposed photography has compiled an archive of half a million images since 1983. the archive is a vernacular document, a record of a turbulent historical period in the city's history, produced from the perspectives of its principal actors, the communities themselves. It is not a representative view of the city as whole but an arbitrary gathering of images and views, of and from specific parts of belfast." these are from the category "demonstrations". more here.
