Still from 1395 Days without Red, a film by Anri Sala in collaboration with Liria Begeja.From a project by Šejla Kamerić & Anri Sala in collaboration with Ari Benjamin Meyers Still from 1395 Days without Red, a film by Šejla Kamerić.From a project by Šejla Kamerić & Anri Sala in collaboration with Ari Benjamin Meyers 1395 Days without Red was conceived, developed and filmed as a collaborative film project by Šejla Kamerić and Anri Sala.

The project has given life to two separate films. Šejla Kamerić's film is 65 minutes long, and Anri Sala's film, made in collaboration with Liria Begeja, is 43 minutes long. An elegant young woman makes her way through an empty city. At every crossing she stops, looks and listens. Should she wait or should she run? The city is Sarajevo, and the route the woman takes became known as Sniper Alley during the siege of the city endured by its citizens for 1395 days between 1992 and 1996. Throughout the siege, the Sarajevo Symphony Orchestra continued to play. ORA* ALPHA. Remake / Photo Project. Adobe recently put forth a challenge to students in the UK with a cash prize of £10,000.

The deadline is soon so if you want in on it you better work quick! Since so many of our readers live outside the UK I thought it might be fun to work with Adobe on our own project. They thought so too, so here it is! The Booooooom + Adobe Remake photo project. The idea of the project is to remake a famous work of art using photography. This photo by Sarah Hermans is a perfect example of what I’m after as it references Michelangelo’s “Creation of Adam” simply, and beautifully. 1. 2. 3. 1. 2. 3. 4. The best submissions will be posted in a gallery on Booooooom and one of you will walk away with the prize! Deadline for submissions is October 21st 2011.

By submitting your work to the Booooooom Facebook group you are giving us permission to post them on our website and pass them along to other blogs and news outlets who want to post about the project! “Composition With Red, Blue and Yellow” by Mondrian.
