Deepol : pay homage to man's best friend and growth in the picture pool

At the beginning of 2007 the picture agency presented photographer Peter NITSCH from Munich and his project *Moneypenny the dog*. In collision with the recently expired Asian *Year of the Dog* the designer breaks the usual traditions of classic dog photography and presents man's best friend in his photographic concept as an individual, quirky personality. A homage to dogs, photography and life.

January's featured artist was Lars BORGES, one of the new young Deepol photographers. The Berliner of choice pierces his unusual language of pictures, a modern mixture of experimental and documentary photography, with humour, sentimentality and sensitivity.

Susa KLEEBERG and Friedemann RINK are also new additions to Deepol. The communications artists, magicians of light and idea finders from Wiesbaden, are also known as IconArt. They started a concise but classy collection at Deepol in February.

In addition to this there are also over 1000 new pictures by Oliver RÜTHER, Till MELCHIOR, Rui CAMILO and Flo KRESSE in the ever expanding Deepol picture pool.
