M&C Saatchi recently commissioned Jason “Giblin” Hindley to shoot the new NatWest and RBS ad campaigns. The former, explains Keiko Hindley at Jason’s blog, centers on promotional piggy banks given away by NatWest in the 1980s. “Nostalgic to those who are old enough to remember!” she writes. “Apparently, these have turned into collector’s items over the years. So if you have any lying around in the attic, I suggest you dig them out!”
Here’s a look at the campaign. Check out Keiko’s blog post, “Have you seen the piggies?”, for behind-the-scenes photos.

Doug Menuez is really on a roll with his exhibition “Fearless Genius: The Digital Revolution in Silicon Valley 1995–2000.” The show, which made its debut at the Moscow Photobiennale last month (read about it on here, on Doug’s blog), will be mounted in China on May 23rd as part of the 9th China Photographic Art Festival. The fest is organized by the Chinese Photographers Association and will take place in Wudang Mountain, which happens to be the birthplace of Tai Chi—something the 100-hour-workweek digital pioneers who Doug photographed all those years could have really used…

The above portrait of Bill Maher by Art Streiber appeared in a feature on the HBO TV host published in the April 16 issue. The story was on “how a cynical stoner Johnny Carson disciple with a habit of going too far managed to occupy an important place in the national conversation,” as the editors put it…

When they want to take a break from their fabulous life in Manhattan, author and bon mots master Simon Doonan and his husband, designer Jonathan Adler, get away to their fabulous home in Shelter Island, with dog Liberace and Simon’s Prada swim trunks in tow. I know these and other intimate details because Vanity Fair featured the couple in a recent “Where I Go” story that Melanie Acevedo had the pleasure of photographing. The Q&A with Simon covers everything from where he likes to paint the town red (“I am barely capable of painting the town beige”) to how he keeps his girlish figure. “We have lots of lesbian hikes in the Mashomak nature preserve,” he tells Vanity Fair. “I just wrote a book called Gay Men Don’t Get Fat, so I am obligated to stay in shape. We also love kayaking and paddle-boarding (not to be confused with water-boarding.) I also like to jog. Just call me Sporty Spice.”
Go here to enjoy more of Simon’s wit and to see Melanie’s photos, which capture the couple’s effortless stylishness, not to mention Liberace’s incredible cuteness…

Natasha Koifman, the president of PR firm NKPR, recently penned a column for The Huffington Post on her passion for collecting art, raving about the artists whose work she has acquired—Damien Hirst, for example—and those whose work she is eager to add to her collection. “The next purchase I’m planning to make is by David Drebin,” she declared.
“Toronto-born, New York-based Drebin is now known worldwide for his cinematic, sexy, intrigue-filled images. In interviews, he has said that he looks to capture any two of these three feelings: humour, sexiness and melancholy. This results in a certain tension and mystery in his photographs that gives depth and interest beyond what he captures — and that depth and mystery is what I love about Drebin’s work. I always look at his photographs and wonder what the STORY behind them is. I had the fortunate opportunity to have dinner with David and the man is as intriguing as his images—I get it now!”

“Each speaker will present a 20-minute TED-style talk on a topic relevant to their area of expertise,” according to the conference’s official site. Find out more here.
