Macau from Gregory Krum's series Hard Times

In addition to making photographs that he describes as being "a little bit romantic, and perhaps embarrassed", Summer '07 Hot Shot Gregory Krum is the retail director for the Shop at the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum. Krum selects unusual and delightful things that reflect his passion for "craftsmanship, quirkiness" and "contextual relevance". His efforts have not gone without notice, and this weekend T Magazine has a profile on the talented Mr. Krum, with a few of his favorite things that he stocks his shop with.

Krum has had two edition prints offered on 20x200, and only one remains. View more of his photographs that explore "territories or concepts of control, organization, and security, states of sensitive, deep affection, inference, isolation, complexity, importance, insecurity, vulnerability" and "bliss" on his website.
