Setup in a nearby town museum. I recommend to view it in original size, at least my German friends may remind some stuff from their childhood :)

“Barber shops are pretty much the same the world over.”
With this statement Geoff Dyer analyses the way photographs of barber shops have recurred throughout the history of photography. Dyer does this for many subjects in his rollicking survey, “The Ongoing Moment” (Vintage Books, 2007). I suppose their attraction to photographers has been the fact they are places of communion, where genuine conversation can be had with plenty of light reading matter at hand. And then of course there is the colour.
Here the colour of this Kodak Ultramax 400 film is restrained.

Barber shops are having a boom time in Launceston, like tattoo parlours. But The Celtic Barber in Invermay reminds us of the important links between Ireland and Tasmania. Not far from here is a park known as the Caledonian Square.
A small, abandoned barbershop with its "OPEN" sign visible in the door sits beside a payphone on a quiet street. The building has a cracked exterior, and the window displays barber poles.

In April we paid another visit to the Barber Institute, located on Birmingham University’s campus. Housed in a Grade I Art Deco style building, it was opened in 1939. It was set up by Martha Constance Hattie Barber in memory of her husband Henry Barber, a wealthy Birmingham property developer, who had died in 1927. The Barber Institute of Fine Arts was founded in 1932 and when she died only months later, she left all her money to it. From the start it was decided that it would purchase only the finest works, and this has held true. This is a marble lion's head, made in Italy in the 13th century, and probably the spout for a water fountain.
