| | | The Longing of the Stranger Whose Path Has Been Broken شوق الغريب للي تقطّع © Rehab Eldalil | | | | | | | | | | | | | 23 February – 22 May 2024 | | | Foam Magazine #65: Talent is now available | | | | shop.foam.org | | |  | | | | | | | | | | Foam is excited to present twenty exceptional artists in the Talent 2024 - 2025 group exhibition. The artists’ works signify a bold, new direction in photographic art. The talents were selected during the biennial Foam Talent Call, for which an astounding 2,500 photographers from over 106 countries submitted their work. The exhibition emphasizes the role of photography as a powerful medium for storytelling, cultural critique, and personal expression. In a time of increasing polarization, this year’s talents challenge the viewer to reflect on the viewpoints of others and invite empathy.
At the heart of the exhibition lies the exploration of urgent societal issues, where artists introspectively examine both themselves and the world. The topics of interest range from migration to the danger of internet algorithms, and from questioning gender roles to a reflection on the impact of colonialism. Looking to broaden the medium of photography, this year’s talents present us with innovative approaches, from embroideries on photos and the use of photogrammetry to the use of Artificial Intelligence. The selection celebrates photographers who dare to push the boundaries of creative expression.
In addition to the physical exhibition, Talent 2024-2025 is accompanied by a digital exhibition on the online platform Foam Explore, as well as Foam Magazine #65 TALENT which will be entirely devoted to this new generation of talents. In 2025, the exhibition will travel internationally. As part of the Talent program, the selected artists are invited to participate in various networking activities, mentoring, with the opportunity to have their work added to the prestigious collection of the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation. | | |

| | | Serie With You (part 3), 2022 © Sanja Marušić | | | Saison 2023 – 2024: FORMENSPRACHE | | | Free access to the outdoor exhibitions, daily, all year | | | | | | | ... until 7 October 2024 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Clervaux - Cité de l'image enters its new season 2023-2024 with 6 new open-air exhibitions.
We dive into a world full of fantastic forms, approaches, themes and techniques. The six photographers invited this year use their own formal language to express emotions, convey stories or present certain concepts. In this open-air exhibition, the focus is on playing with contrasts, experimenting with techniques or on the most diverse stylistic elements.
With depictions of fundamental themes in the life of a young woman, the artist Sanja Marušić attracts full attention with her colourful photographs on the market square. Heading towards the church, we pass the arcades with the photographic works of Christine Erhard, which have been developed out of a sculptural process in her studio. Opposite the church, Thaddäus Biberauer takes us on his journeys through nature. The snapshots, almost painterly in scene, invite us to dream. In Steph Meyer's works, the focus is on the photograph and the viewer. The picture within the picture, in which the viewers in the arcades of the Grand-Rue are included in the snapshot of the documented photo exhibition or even become voyeurs. On the castle plateau, Liz Lambert gives us a deep insight into her very personal story. In a poetic and partly symbolic way, she explores the questions of how relationships come into being and develop. In Tina Lechner's works in the garden of the castle, she focuses on the exploration of identity and the female body. Covered with self-produced props, this becomes a retrofuturistic sculpture.
Through their creative and poetic manner, the photographers a… | | |

© The Estate of Larry Sultan, courtesy Galerie Thomas Zander, Cologne | | | Looking back in Time | | | | Age and Ageing in Photographic Portraits | | | | | | | March 2 - July 7, 2024 | | | | The exhibition is accompanied by an extensive supporting program, mainly in German with guided tours on special topics and various target groups, e.g. for children or for adults in Ukrainian. There is also a theme day, a workshop and a film program. To the online ticket store | | | | | | | | | | | | | The exhibition shows 18 positions and includes photographs from the beginning of the 20th century to the present day. Using the example of the portrait, photographers of different generations and origins approach the many facets of the phenomenon of "age and ageing" in serial projects.
Above all, life means development and thus implies change and ageing. What is perceived as progress or regression depends on individual and social values. The images that find expression in art and photography are correspondingly diverse. Photography is particularly suited to dealing with time-related aspects. It gives age and ageing a face and confronts us with many different questions: How is life experience reflected in the appearance, physiognomy and posture of older people? What personality, what characteristics do the people portrayed radiate? What social roles are conveyed in the image? Do the gestures change against the background of different times and places of origin? What is the attitude towards death?
In impressive portraits taken at the beginning of the 20th century, August Sander depicts elderly people from a rural class, reflecting a sense of status, life experience and the living conditions of a bygone era. Sander himself can be seen in the exhibition in an old-age portrait created in 1960 by the American artist Imogen Cunningham. In more recent exhibits, such as those by Martin Rosswog and Albrecht Fuchs, the moment of life experience in particular comes to the fore. Each of their works is a tribute to the people portrayed and what they have achieved.
A portrait by the artist Cindy Sherman shows how ambivalent our society's relationship to age… | | |

The Pond at Upton Pyne, July 1996
© Jem Southam | | | | | | | March 2 - July 7, 2024 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Jem Southam's series shows the cyclical transformation of a pond and its surroundings in Upton Pyne, Devon, England. The pond is not of natural origin, but dates back to a disused manganese mine from the 18th century, an area that has long been neglected.
For the narrative series, which was created between 1996 and 2002, Southam designed three parts: The first shows the pond at a time when a man was working to transform the small area into a romantic paradise for his family. After the man left the village, the area became overgrown. The second part is dedicated to the work of the next inhabitant, who later took care of the pond. He was guided by a different vision and transformed the site into a place of recreation and leisure, for example by erecting new huts, tables and swings. The short third part of Southam's study deals with the surrounding landscape.
Focusing on a "microcosm", Jem Southam's series of images is both an allegorical story about how our dreams influence our actions and a reflection on aspects of the historical and socio-cultural development of the post-industrial Western world. | | |

Courtesy of the artist | | | | | | | | | | | | | 23 February – 2 June 2024 | | | | | | | | | | | | | This long-standing annual Prize, originally established in 1996 by the Photographers' Gallery in London, identifies and rewards artists for their projects that have made a significant contribution to photography over the previous 12 months.
Over its 27-year history, the Prize has become renowned as one of the most important international awards for photographers, spotlighting outstanding, innovative and thought-provoking work. The 2024 shortlisted projects all critically engage with urgent concerns, from the remnants of war and conflict, experiences of diasporic communities and decolonisation, to contested land, heritage, equality and gender. Together these artists demonstrate photography's unique capacity to reveal what is invisible, forgotten or marginalised and imagine a path to redress.
The annual exhibition of shortlisted projects will be on show at The Photographers' Gallery, London from 23 February to 2 June 2024. It will then be on display from 15 June to 15 September 2024 at the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation in Eschborn/Frankfurt.
The winner of the £30,000 prize will be announced at an award ceremony held at The Photographers' Gallery on 16 May 2024, with the other finalists each receiving £5,000. Full details of the Prize exhibition and award evening will be announced in early 2024. | | |

© Abe Frajndlich | | | | | | | | ... until 1 April 2024 | | | | | | | | | | | | | He has portrayed creatives from music, art, and showbiz, surreally depicted the boundlessness of the big city and brought the greats of photographic history in front of the camera. With "ABE FRAJNDLICH. CHAMELEON", the Kunstfoyer presents the iridescent diversity in themes of the American photographer Abe Frajndlich (*1946, Frankfurt am Main). Facets of his biography, which oscillate between many worlds, are also given space in the exhibition.
On display are about 200 works from the 1970s onwards, including Frajndlich’s earliest vintage prints from Cleveland. The streets, whether in New York, long his home, or wherever his journey led him, provided an ongoing stage. A chance meeting on the streets of London with John Kobal, the collector and publisher of 20th-century Hollywood portraits, led to pursuing ideas about identity, freedom, and photography.
Naturally, a large proportion of this exhibition presents portraits of artists who influenced his life, above all the performer Rosebud Conway, known as »Rosie«, and Minor White, photographer, founder of Aperture magazine, and Frajndlich’s photographic mentor. After his book Lives I’ve Never Lived about Minor White, Abe realized that he wanted to continue to make images of the photographers he felt had impacted the 20th century; eventually becoming his first major series in color, Masters of Light , underwritten by Eastman Kodak for the 150th anniversary of photography. Each of these staged pictures uniquely alludes to aspects of the icons' life or work.
Commissioned throughout the 1980s and 1990s by FAZ magazine, Frajndlich was able to provide his insight into the American art scene. Extensive series of Cindy Sherman, Nancy Spero, and David Ireland are good… | | |

Sheet 50 x 60 cm | | | | | | | Observed, posed and staged portraits of the intimate sphere | | | | | | | | ... until 9 March 2024 | | | | Galerie Miranda is 6! The big birthday exhibition with 4 group shows and 22 artists from 1 February to 29 June 2024 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Private Views is the first in a series of four capsule exhibitions that celebrate Galerie Miranda's 6th birthday. Curated across broad themes by gallery founder Miranda Salt, with both new and inventory works, this anniversary cycle reviews the gallery's choices to date and places historical photographic references in conversation with contemporary signatures.
Private Views presents distinctive works that broach different aspects of intimacy - beauty, bodies, stereotypes, privacy, desire, love and the end of love - with staged, documented and narrated bodies of work produced from the mid 1970s to today. Shown exclusively and for the first time are selected images by Jean Curran whose hand-made dye-transfer prints are produced from the original Cinemascope reels of Le Mépris (Contempt, 1963) by Jean-Luc Godard and starring Brigitte Bardot. | | |

Ici - Belleville, Ménilmontant, Place De La République | | | | ... until 6 April 2024 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since 2010, Thomas Boivin has been pursuing his photographic work in the northeast of Paris, wandering around his home, strolling the streets, always favoring beautiful light. Portraits of passersby or residents he meets in multicultural neighborhoods and with whom he often establishes a dialogue, urban landscapes that bring out neglected corners, and his own black and white prints, with their subtly balanced shades of gray, have become his signature. Embracing the Paris of Brassai, Marcel Bovis or Robert Doisneau, Thomas Boivin doesn’t indulge in nostalgia either but prefers to draw inspiration from the contemporary American scene, where Mark Steinmetz and Judith Joy Ross, portraitists extraordinaire, are notorious among his influences. When he’s not photographing friends and family, or leaving the house, Thomas Boivin explores still lifes, echoing a pictorial tradition that also reflects his pronounced taste for simplicity and beauty.
How did you become a photographer?
Shortly after studying illustration at the Art Décoratifs de Strasbourg, I bought a digital camera – but quickly switched to a Leica - and got into the habit of taking walks with my camera or in the middle of my days, hunched over a drawing table. It wasn’t long before photography took over.
Did you immediately choose to photograph in black and white?
It was initially a rational choice: about a dozen years ago, black and white film was still cheap, and I didn’t have much money. At the time, it was possible to order film directly from the United States by the hundreds, without the trouble of customs fees. In any case, I was attracted to the idea of developing film by myself, and black and white film easily… | | |

Courtesy Les Douches la Galerie, Paris | | | | | | | | ... until 6 April 2024 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Marvin E. Newman, who passed away on September 13, 2023, photographed everything from street photography to advertising and sports commissions, nightlife and fashion. Les Douches la Galerie, which had the pleasure of presenting his first solo show in France, in 2018, wanted to pay tribute to him, a few months after his death, with this exhibition of photographs taken in color, mainly in New York.
This city, where he was born in 1927, was undoubtedly one of his favorite playgrounds, along with Chicago, where he settled to study at the Institute of Design (ID) between 1949 and 1952, alongside Harry Callahan and Aaron Siskind. An inquisitive man, open to the world and never taking himself too seriously, Marvin E. Newman was above all a storyteller. Through his work, the history of American photography from the post-war years to the present day unfolds before our eyes. | | |

Friday/Saturday, 17/18 May 2024
Please note: Due to the renovation of Fotomuseum Winterthur, the exhibition will be shown in the spaces of Fotostiftung Schweiz at Grüzenstrasse 45. | | | | | | | | | | | | | A collection show with a difference: Fotomuseum Winterthur is taking the opportunity presented by the institution's thirtieth anniversary to examine its own collection. Drawing on a selection of works from the collection, the exhibition delves into various themes and issues – from the collection's focal points and the factors that influence its ongoing development to the gaps and absences that are revealed in it.
"A Show of Affection" offers an alternative to the classic collection exhibition. The non-linear way in which the exhibition is presented sheds light on numerous aspects of putting together, developing and maintaining a collection. It is also an expression of the museum's institutional approach, which is eminently (self-)critical – and yet still has a sense of affection for its own collection. The exhibition brings together works by a total of 19 different photographers and artists, combining well-known names, such as Lee Friedlander, Nan Goldin and Shirana Shahbazi, with newly or re-discovered talents like Jacob Holdt, Anika Schwarzlose and Lorna Simpson.
"Collection Constellation 1" marks the beginning of a series of collection presentations that build on one another and are conceived for different international venues. | | |
