The Makings of a Nymph: The Photographs of Marie Zucker
Don't you hate this girl? Pretty, whimsical, talented, loves pink... I mean, come on! All of these are self potraits, including the first one, which is a multiple exposure. It's a nice blend of fashion/ art/ and nostalgia that makes me feel like I've walked into the Secret Garden of a really hot chick.

Is surrealism back? Luis Dourado
All Photos by Luis Dourado from Dazed and Confused
Luis Dourado's sci-fi inspired collages are easy to look at. They make a cold war apocalypse seem like the 50's on acid, in the best way possible. As the artist says, "I don’t think it’s [the work] a message but rather a common visual "experience." His work uses universally recognized faces, much like Warhol used universally recognized products, and makes them, well- strange. While his work is cool, it is neither particularly novel or evocative. He's got the graphics, now he just needs the concepts to back them up.
