German Spotlight on...Alex Prager

I lurv, lurv, lurv these photographs by Alex Prager, and they are from her various collections (Weekend [2010], The Big Valley [2008], Polyester [2007]). "Her photographs have a 1960s cinematic feel, and portray women on the edge of beauty and disaster." They are The Graduate-esque material, and don't EVEN get me started on how much I love that movie. Alex was born in L.A. which she claims as her biggest inspiration. These photos make me wanna throw on some thick eyeliner, a Mrs. Robinson leopard coat, and listen to the Beach Boys and Petula Clark and dance like they do in the Gidget movies.

"Jackie"

"Alexandra"

"Susie and Friends"

"Virginia"

"Jane"

"Wendy"

"Annie"

"Rachel and Friends"

"Desiree"

"Nancy"

"Gloria"

"Ellen"--This one's my favorite; The Big Gulp. No one in France can believe that this size actually exists. I miss it.


"Undo"

"Wrath"

And here is a photo of the 30 year old photographer (she's on the left)
