| | | | | | | | | | | | | 24 June – 7 September 2022 | | |  | | | | | | | | | | From 24 June, Foam will present the exhibition Surinamese Wedding Portraits, a collection of memorable portraits that together cover almost a century of Surinamese history. The photographs span the period from 1846 to 1954, when Surinam was still a Dutch colony. The family photos and stories show the extent to which Surinamese people, under Dutch administration, migrated to all corners of the world. They often found their partner elsewhere, in places like Aruba, Curaçao or Bonaire, in the former Dutch East Indies, the Netherlands or North America. The strength of this collection of personal photos therefore lies in the multitude of different engagements that stretched across the globe.
A century of marriages in Surinam, in words and images
With over one hundred wedding pictures and stories, this exhibition portrays the wedded lives of Surinamese people between 1846 and 1954. The portraits tell the story of the countless personal bonds that often transcend national boundaries, ethnicity or religion. The many different family histories reveal how this did not always go down smoothly. Yet most lovers followed their hearts, and love generally triumphed over the spirit of the times.
The family stories are often interwoven with important themes in Suriname’s colonial history, such as slavery, contract labour, immigration and emigration, conflict and struggle. But the stories also talk about personal bonds, diversity and unity. For that reason, the photographs are not only of great significance to the people whose family histories were immortalised, but also embody a shared (inter)national history.
The earliest photograph in the collection dates from 1846: just seven years after the introduction of daguerreotype, an e… | | |

- Charles Baudelaire
The human urge to immortalize its likeness is as old as the emergence of civilization: the Ancient Greek immortalized important figures in marble and stone, where Ancient Egyptian portraiture flourished from about 5,000 years ago. Before the invention of photography, painting, sculpting, and drawing were the only ways to record someone’s appearance.
However, portraits have always been more than just a record. Expressing the individual identity of the model, they capture a personality rather than a person. Traditionally, portraits have been used to display the sitter’s wealth, power, importance, virtue, beauty, taste, or learning.
Soon after its invention in 1839, photography triggered a shift in the long-standing tradition of capturing the human image, and grew into the most important medium of traditional portraiture. Starting with pictures taken for pragmatic or sentimental reasons, portrait photography has evolved from a means for self-presentation into a multifaceted genre that shows engagement, empathy and experimentation - a transformation that still continues today.
With The Portrait, The Ravestijn Gallery brings an ode to the portrayal of the human image. From traditional and documentary to more surprising and unconventional ways of representing likeness, and from honest and revealing to more elusive interpretations of the genre. Included are works by Blommers & Schumm (NL), Fake Shamus (US), Inez & Vinoodh (NL/US), Michael Bailey-Gates (US), Robin de Puy (NL), Patrick Waterhouse (UK), Koos Breukel (NL) and Pacifico Silano (US), Asger Carlsen (DK). | | |

Join us Wednesday, May 25th 5-7pm for a reception with the artist at Leica Gallery Boston to view "Master Works", a selection of Salgado's seminal photographs from the 1980's to the present. Additionally, Robert Klein Gallery Newbury Street debuts "Amazônia" a 7 year project documenting the threatened, vast ecosystem that has been described as the "lung of the planet".
Acclaimed Brazilian photographer Sebastião Salgado has created numerous in-depth bodies of work documenting life on Earth, from crushing images of unimaginable hardship facedby gold miners in Brazil and pictures of hell on earth from blazing oil wells in Kuwait toscenes of serene, magnificent wilderness, Salgado has touched the depths of the human condition. Through his expansive, yet finely detailed black-and- white photographs, Salgado reveals both awe-inspiring and horrifying scenes from some of the most far-flung corners of the world, presenting us with his own unique vision of our vast planet.
Sebastião Salgado was born in 1944 in the Brazilian mining state of Minas Gerais and now lives in Paris. Initially an economist with the World Bank, Salgado began his photographic career in Paris in 1973. He worked with the Sygma, Gamma, and Magnum Photos agencies until 1994, when he and his wife Lélia Wanick Salgado founded Amazonas Images, dedicated exclusively to his work. He has traveled to morethan 100 countries for his photographic projects, resulting in many books including Other Americas (1986); Sahel, lʼhomme en détresse (1986); Sahel: the end of the road (1988); An Uncertain Grace (1990); Workers (1993); Terra (1997); Migrations and Portraits (2000); Africa (2007), Genesis (2013) and Amazonia (2021) | | |

Edition of 3 + 1 AP | | | | | | | | 25 June — 20 August 2022 | | | | Opening: Friday, 24 June, 6—8 pm | | | | | | | | | | | | | "Daguerre’s dioramas transported viewers 'elsewhere'. They often reproduced political events or natural disasters. The tarps photographed by Christoph Sillem in 'Daguerre,' by contrast, cloak a present referent with its perfect copy—they serve to ensure the continuity between a decayed before and the refreshed after. In a word, they seek to erase time, manifesting an ahistorical perspective which speaks volumes on the Paris that investors and urban planners dream of today. Sillem here pays homage to Daguerre, while also revealing one significant face of contemporary Paris. With his photographs he re-instills, into an art of illusion that has been reduced to merely serving a function, a multi-valent, magical charm." (Sonia Voss)
Christoph Sillem (b. 1965) is a German photographer who has lived in his adopted home of Paris since 1988. After studying at the Bayerische Staatslehranstalt für Photographie in Munich, he began his professional career in the nineties with campaigns for Kenzo and Guerlain, among others. In addition to editorials for major publications such as The Face, Vogue Japan or iD, he has photographed for brands such as Hermès and Issey Miyake. His photographs have been published internationally, including The Guardian, The Independent, Le Figaro, Vogue Homme International, Le Monde Hermès, Telerama and Süddeutsche Zeitung Magazin.
Christoph Sillem's work was shown at the Triennale Photographie et Architecture Bruxelles in 2015, in the exhibition Paysages français at the Bibliothèque nationale de France Paris and at the Photaumnales Beau… | | |

| | | Photographic Concepts and Treasures | | | | Works from the Collection Part 1 – Portraiture, Landscape, Botany | | | | | | | ... until July 21, 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | In 2022, Die Photographische Sammlung/SK Stiftung Kultur celebrates the 25th year of its exhibition program in Cologne’s Mediapark, launched in 1997 under the forward-looking title "Comparative Concepts." This anniversary offers an occasion to present many works from the collection in two exhibitions, each with its own focus, enabling Die Photographische Sammlung to provide visitors with a broad overview of its holdings. With over 400 exhibits, the current presentation focuses on the central themes of “Portraiture, Landscape, Botany” as illustrated by the work of 25 historical and contemporary artistic photographers. A second exhibition to follow from September 2 will spotlight the related areas of "Urban Life, Architecture, Industry." Viewers will discover a variety of links between the two presentations.
The portrait genre will be examined first, based on the work of August Sander, whose archive has provided vital inspiration for the institution’s collection and program concept. With his iconic series "Citizens of the Twentieth Century," represented in the current show by over 50 original prints, Sander took the photographic portrait in a new and innovative direction as a method of factual documentary. Compiled in the first half of the last century and consisting of hundreds of images, this work still has a singular standing to this day as an enormously multifaceted oeuvre following a predefined concept that was implemented step by step starting in the mid-1920s. The series reflects fundamental new challenges in dealing with the medium, as well as aspects of the individual and group portrait – considerations that are a core component of Die Photographische Sammlung.

Courtesy the artist, Gladstone Gallery, New York and Brussels, and Galerie Jérôme de Noirmont, Paris. | | | | | | | | ... until 31 July 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Shirin Neshat’s first major exhibition in Canada in 20 years sees the convergence of photography and film, bringing together a range of work in one immersive experience. Stemming from her perspective as an Iranian immigrant living and working in the United States, Land of Dreams focuses on global issues of displacement, migration, and geopolitical conflict.
The exhibition brings together four bodies of work: Roja (2016), Land of Dreams (2020), Women of Allah (1993–97), and Rapture (1999). The selection, made in close collaboration with Neshat, is connected by the prominent use of black-and-white in these photographic and video compositions, and the presence of strong female protagonists. Encountered first in the exhibition, the video work Roja sets the scene for the artist’s recent exploration into dreams, and a more surrealist response to societal and political manifestations and relationships. Roja is part of a trilogy of video installations titled Dreamers and is inspired by one of Neshat’s own dreams where scenes respond to the dark undertones of uprootedness and solitary detachment that result from her choice to remain in exile since 1996.
Roja is a precursor to Neshat’s large-scale and most recent body of work, Land of Dreams. For this expansive project, Neshat travelled across the state of New Mexico in 2019, visiting towns and communities to photograph subjects and ask them to each share a recent dream. The result is an installation of 111 portraits, many of which include illustrations and Farsi texts with the sitter’s name, date, and place of birth. The accompanying two-channel video installation, also filmed in New Mex… | | |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | On June 27 and 28, Artcurial will pay tribute to the photographic work of Dora Maar through 750 unpublished and intimate photographs.
Gathered in 356 lots, these photographs illustrate the artist’s years with Pablo Picasso, reflecting her strong taste for surrealism and the avant-garde, but also for portraits and street scenes with a social character.
Through this exceptional photographic treasure from the estate of Dora Maar and exhibited to the public for the very first ffirst time, the artist appears as one of the most original photographers of her time, a true pioneer of the mid-20th century. | | |

e.delecotais@yahoo.fr | +33 (0)6 46 25 73 81 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Christophe Joron-Derem is pleased to announce a sale entitled "Man Ray and his contemporaries" at the Hôtel DROUOT on Tuesday 28 and Wednesday 29 June, 2022.
Approximately 200 original works will be displayed from the collection of Edmonde and Lucien Treillard, Man Ray's primary assistant.
Lucien Treillard, who was a professor of literature, met Man Ray in 1960 on the occasion of the realization of two prints for the editor Georges Visat. The two men developed a real affinity for one another and continued to work together, Man Ray relying entirely on his faithful companion for the promotion of his work, until the end of his life in 1976. Juliet, his last wife, maintained this collaboration until her own death in 1991.
The collection offered for sale today, belonging to Mrs. Edmonde Treillard, Lucien's widow, is the result of forty years of work, research and collecting from friends and contemporaries of Man Ray.
The sale presents a characteristic collection of Man Ray's work: vintage prints and original contact sheets, objects, drawings, glass plates, prints and portfolios, as well as some rare large prints made in 1960 for PHOTOKINA. Three exceptional unpublished versions of Le Violon d'Ingres will also be exhibited.
The collection is completed by rare works of Berenice Abbott and Jacques-André Boiffard - former assistants of Man Ray, Raoul Hausmann, Brassaï and Henri Cartier-Bresson, collected by Lucien very early on. | | |

The largest outdoor photography festival in Europe will take place
from 9 June until 16 October 2022.
festival-lagacilly-baden.photo |  |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | DUE NORTH is an opportunity to highlight the often little-known creative power of artists from Northern Europe who, since the dawn of photography, have maintained an almost carnal connection with the ruggedness of their homeland. For the inhabitants of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden, solitude and wild nature are integral to their relationship with the world. They do not exploit the fruits of nature blindly, but try to understand how everything works and observe it with a caring eye. Their knowledge and constant desire to learn more about flora and fauna lead them to be very committed to respecting nature.
It is no wonder that the countries of the North, with their outrageous economic health, are among the most pleasant nations to live. Regularly crippled by frost and cold and accustomed to the great outdoors, they have developed a centuries-old tradition of political consensus, rejection of conflict and social development based on strict conservation of natural resources. In Copenhagen, 40% of the inhabitants cycle to work, in Stockholm the buses run on bioethanol, and in Reykjavik geothermal energy is now commonplace. Some will see the legacy of Lutheranism, others the more distant traces of the Viking tradition. You can't survive in the far north without a certain willingness to adapt. In countries where warmth and light are vital six months out of twelve, the environment is a crucial challenge. So it is understandable that Swedish teenager Greta Thunberg has become the new face of climate change for the world's youth: she knows that melting glaciers and sea ice are not far from home and that it is not a boreal illusion. If your culture is threatened by the effects of global warming, it is your duty to alert the public.

Courtesy of the artist | | | | | | | 12 Exhibitions on "CURRENCY" | | | | | | | | EXHIBITIONS until SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | With twelve exhibitions starting from May 20, 2022, the 8th Triennial of Photography Hamburg will engage the theme of "Currency" from multiple angles and perspectives. From colonial-era photo albums to visual reveries, social documentary and conceptual approaches to photography, the exhibitions explore the polyphonic ways in which photographs are produced, circulated and interpreted. The exhibition parcours through Hamburg was conceived by artistic director Koyo Kouoh and her international team, alongside the curators of the ten participating museums and exhibition venues in Hamburg. The exhibitions will be accompanied by numerous events and a festival lasting several days in June 2022.
At the Hall for Contemporary Art of the Deichtorhallen Hamburg, Koyo Kouoh, Rasha Salti, Gabriella Beckhurst Feijoo and Oluremi C. Onabanjo examine the "retinal age", in which images fundamentally shape acts of seeing and being seen. The exhibition Currency: Photography Beyond Capture weaves experimental modes of portrayal, documentary and multisensory evocation, as entry points into reimagining how knowledge is sought and constructed through the photographic medium.
Two of the triennial’s exhibitions are devoted to photographer Herbert List » The Magic Eye at the Bucerius Kunst Forum presents the first international survey exhibition of his work in more than two decades. The retrospective spans his career from surrealist works to his visions of life in antiquity and extensive pictorial reports of non-European cultures, all the way to the male nudes with which List avowed his own homosexuality. | | |
