Dear photo-and-other-art friend!

Welcome to shoot # 57
The photo above is a digital gift – a moment of joy or reflection – to you from Oberg PhotoGraphics.

A special welcome to many new subscribers and social media and other friends – here is the preceding shoot. 

shoot aims to stimulate art curiosity and share positive stuff. It’s a gateway to the online “flip” GlobalArt Magazine, the blog I write as an art recommender, not an art critic.

shoot wings into your mailbox now and then. Sometimes I also shoot just a single image your way – exclusively for shoot recipients.

I believe in global networking, sharing and in positive energy. Please share with me if you have news and views.

Edvard Munch and Jasper Johns
Want to alert you to the fascinating “Jasper Johns and Edvard Munch: Love, Loss, and the Cycle of Life” exhibition (incl video) to open in a few days at the Virginia Museum of Fine Art (VMFA): 130 works by Munch and Johns and how they connect and how Munch may have inspired Johns. Curated by John B. Ravenal.

There is a new blog post here on the Munch-Johns connection with reference to two works in which I connected them in 2011, one of which is shown on the top.

Little did I know that five years laterthere would be such a fascinating exhibition and a splendid book on exactly what I had been exploring.

Here is the other:

Instagram – let’s follow each other!
On Instagram – @obergphotographics is now a business account. Great diversity and a new photo almost every day, can be spontaneous but always carefully processed. Let’s follow each other! 

Until next: Remember two things
– that if you’d like to explore more, or own one of my works, browse here. Limited, signed editions ranges from just US $ 100 to US $ 600, depending on format, edition and print media. You may soon need a gift?
– that it is the arts more than anything that keep us human and given the state of the world right now, therefore more needed than ever.

My best
