TIM BRUENING
is back!

Yes, the photographer is back and we’re the first to drop the news. We met him at the opening of his exhibition “Comeback” at Horst Janssen Museum in Oldenburg a few days ago. What?

Those who challenge the standard aesthetics, on the other hand, are definitely not marketable and remain unnoticed, says Liubov Kucheriava. An artist better known as Love Curly. let me see
