🚀 We can now tell all that Ken has touched the stars and literally made it to the moon! With SpaceX Falcon 9’s historic launch and landing Kens photographs along with collaboration for the 20th Century Legends officially flew through the stars and embedded a civilisation’s masterpieces and incredible artworks in an indestructible lunar museum vault and now they are sat on the moon!

Here’s to making history, and to reaching beyond the skies. Now we dream of future generations, no matter their planetary origin, marvelling at Ken’s and these other remarkable artists’ works, reflecting on the history of our world.

A heartfelt and massive thank you to Remo, Kens co-pilot on the project. Together, you’ve ventured beyond what we ever imagined 🌕

We could not be prouder that Ken’s legacy now twinkles amongst the planets. Keep your eyes peeled for more information, to infinity and beyond! 👨‍🚀

📷Remembering Elliott Erwitt📷

Today, we honour the remarkable life and legacy of Elliott Erwitt, a master of capturing the essence of American life, politics, and humour through his lens.

Elliott's career, spanning over 70 years, was a testament to the power of photography. From the poignant image of Jacqueline Kennedy at her husband's funeral to the iconic shots of Marilyn Monroe and the striking Coca-Cola machine amidst missiles in Alabama, his work was diverse and impactful.

Known also for his playful and insightful photographs of dogs, Elliott's books like 'Son of Bitch', 'To the Dogs', and 'Woof' showcased his unique perspective on our furry friends.

Born in Paris in 1928 to Russian émigré parents, Elliott's life was a journey across continents, from France to Italy, and finally the United States. His passion for photography started in his teens and flourished through his life.

As we share Ken's picture of Elliott with doggies in his hand and a camera around his neck, lets remember the man who reminds us that: "The best things happen when you just happen to be somewhere with a camera."

Georgian society was deeply impacted by Soviet rule, which sought to establish a "Soviet people" with a unified Soviet culture. Despite this, Georgia retained a strong national identity and culture. The Georgian language was widely spoken, and cultural traditions were maintained. The 1970s were a period of relative stability, and while there were underlying tensions and instances of resistance, there were no major uprisings or conflicts.⁠

Kens images are a reflection of society, cultural traditions and generations of Georgians.⁠
