Another picture of the Cycle: „The Lost Picture CD of Slim Aarons“. This time Joseph Ayerle returns to the place where Slim Aarons created some of its most iconic pictures: Palm Springs and he focuses on a subject that became symbol for Aarons’ visual language: the swimming pool...

The pictures of the cycle "The Lost Picture CD of Slim Aarons" seem both erotic and earnest, comic and depressed. Ayerle is developing a distinctive Pop Surrealist style, with a sense of the absurd, as well as respect to the oevre of Slim Aarons..."

What is Diasec? Diase is a long time proven face-mounting process. C type prints are mounted to exhibition standards without borders and eliminate the need for a traditional picture frame. Diasec® is the registered trademark for the original method of face-mounting prints, such as photographs on acrylic sheet. The process was invented by Heinz Sovilla-Brulhart in Switzerland in 1969. The process bonds the print without air bubbles, because it uses liquid gel instead of a transparent adhesive film. The image is face mounted and stuck to the acrylic glass with a special s ealant. The Diasec gel is neutral curing and has an inbuilt ultra violet filter. It contains no plasticisers and is resistant to fungicidal, bacterial agents, and airborne pollutants.
