The Art Collection Deutsche Börse comprises approximately 1,800 works from over 120 international photographers, including iconic names such as Diane Arbus, Walker Evans, Bernd & Hilla Becher, Rineke Dijkstra, Dana Lixenberg, younger photographers like Tobias Zielony and Mike Brodie, and hidden gems like Gerd Danigel or Gabriele and Helmut Nothhelfer. The exhibition period consists of four back-to-back presentations that record positions on some key themes of the collection, with works from different photographers. This concept celebrates the variety and comprehensive quality of the Art Collection Deutsche Börse. The four successive chapters are: Germany (3 – 19 May), Icons (21 May – 9 June), Traces of Disorder (11 – 23 June), and Youth Culture (25 June – 7 July).
The Deutsche Börse started its renowned Art Collection in 1999. The Collection is dedicated to the central themes of contemporary photography from the mid-20th century onward, with subjects ranging from landscapes and portraits to still lifes, interiors and street photography. Since 2015, the non-profit Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation has been responsible for the development, presentation and preservation of the Art Collection Deutsche Börse. The Foundation’s intended purpose is to develop and show the collection as well as to promote projects and institutions on the subject of… | | |

Ticket reservation: info@galerie-peter-sillem.com | | | | | | | | | | | | | For the first time since her arrival in exile in Germany, Chinese artist Liu Xia, widow of Nobel Peace Prize laureate Liu Xiaobo, is exhibiting her works in a Western country. On view is a selection of black-and-white photographs taken between 1996 and 1999. At that time, Liu Xiaobo spent three years in prison in the Dalian labor camp, and Liu Xia, coming from painting, increasingly turned to photography. She created her very own cosmos, populated by dolls, a series which she called "Ugly Babies", and impressive still lifes that reflect on notions such as isolation and transience.
The photo artist, painter and poet Liu Xia, born in Beijing in 1959, is one of the most remarkable artists of the Chinese present and played a central role in the opening of the art scene in Beijing in the 1980s. In 1996 she married the Chinese intellectual and dissident Liu Xiaobo, who was sentenced to eleven years imprisonment in 2009 for his commitment to the "Charter 2008". After Liu Xiaobo was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2010, Liu Xia was placed under house arrest without ever having been officially accused, charged or convicted of any offence. Liu Xiaobo died in prison in 2017, but Liu Xia's house arrest continued. She was only allowed to leave China in July 2018 and has since been living in exile in Germany. | | |

with Galerist Burkhard Arnold: Sunday, 12 May, 2pm & 4pm | | | | | | | | | | | | | The great French photographer Sabine Weiss is considered the grande dame of humanistic photography and has been compiling a life's work in over seven decades, centering on photographs from Paris. She lives there since 1946. As a trained portraitist, she has not only created timeless character studies of celebrities, but she has also repeatedly photographed people on the street in random situations. She is a brilliant storyteller, her photographs live from a precise observation and multi-layered atmospheric portrayal of everyday life. The fine sensorium of the photographer opens the view of the little things in life. Weiss shows the everyday life, the work, but also the leisure time of the photographed persons.
As early as 1956, Robert d'Hooghe introduced the photographer to the LFI as a "master of the Leica": "And Paris was once again beginning to exert its old fascination for the youth of the world. Among those who met in Paris was a young girl from Switzerland. She was just twenty years old, had a solid apprenticeship in a Swiss photography studio and life ahead of her. Soon one knew 'Sabine' in the circles of the young poets, painters and musicians between Montparnasse, St. Germain-des- Près and Montmartre, who were busy in unending debates to unravel the rotten world and reassemble it. When she became involved in the discussion, she never forgot to emphasize that she was a photographer, not an "artist." But she was not shy at all. She found that her friends developed excellent art theories, but did not understand them. By "seeing" Sabine Weiss understood: to be moved by the visually apprehensible impressions of the environment and by the contexts that are implied in it. The text describes very… | | |

| | | Roselyne Titaud: Am Löwentor – untitled, 2009 © Roselyne Titaud, 2019 | | | | | | | Photographs by Roselyne Titaud » | | | | | | | 3 May – 21 July, 2019 | | | An exhibition taking place as part of "Artist meets Archive" and the Internationale Photoszene Köln
Opening, artist talk and presentation of the book accompanying the show: Sunday, 5 May, 2 pm | | | | | | | | | | | | | The French artist Roselyne Titaud (b.1977) does not present the photographic works she knows best in the exhibition she has curated and titled "The Lobster Quadrille," but instead takes up the challenge of unearthing lesser-known images. She focuses on "hidden treasures," discovering in them a new source of inspiration. Titaud has arranged this diverse set of works into a visual alphabet that offers fresh perspectives and possibilities for interpretation. This explains the title she chose, which refers to a chapter from Lewis Carroll’s novel Alice in Wonderland in which various marine animals strike up a colorful round dance, changing partners to try out ever-new constellations. This open and dynamic system of references serves as a fitting metaphor for the artist’s exhibition concept.
Roselyne Titaud’s images afford us glimpses of the world of things in the form of the decorative or functional objects on display in private households. The color photographs of interiors and domestic still lifes were made for the most part in Berlin and France. Living spaces people create for themselves are thus at the heart of the photographer’s detailed examination. Her motifs tell us something about personal preferences and tastes but also have a temporal component as memories of a particular moment. Many of Titaud’s images take us back to an era when the aesthetics and materials of furnishing fashions and styles were different than they are today. And the arrangements ultimately also reflect lifestyles and family relations, allowing us to infer emotional atmospheres and social structures as well as economic conditions. We discover here porcelain and glass in a variety of shapes and colors, as vases or fruit bowls for exampl… | | |

REFLECTING BAUHAUS: Photographs & Paintings | | | | until 18 May 2019 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Atlas Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of photographs and paintings by Bauhaus artist and photographer Florence Henri (1893-1982). Florence Henri’s work has featured in major institutional exhibitions worldwide, but this is the first time in many years that such a large body of the artist’s work is available for sale.
Despite enjoying considerable popularity in the 1920s and 1930s, Henri’s work was forgotten until it resurfaced through a fortuitous series of discoveries in the mid-1970s that led to a thorough study of her work and the creation of her archive.
Henri trained first as a pianist in Rome and then as a painter under Fernand Léger, from whom she adopted the visual language of Cubism. At the Bauhaus in Weimar in 1924, she was also taught by Paul Klee and Wassily Kandinsky. Henri enrolled at the Bauhaus school of art, design and architecture in Dessau in 1927 at which point she turned solely to photography. With the encouragement of Hungarian constructivist artist László Moholy-Nagy (1895-1946) and his wife, Lucia Moholy (1894-1989), she explored the latest art movements – Constructivism, Surrealism, Dadaism and De Stjil. Henri experimented with ‘New Vision’ photography as practised by Moholy-Nagy, Man Ray and Aleksander Rodchenko. The influence of her association with El Lissitzky and Piet Mondrian was also significant and is reflected her grid-like compositions of this period (1928-29).
Henri quickly became one of the most celebrated photographers associated with the Bauhaus, appearing in seminal exhibitions such as Film und Foto at Stuttgart in 1929. Displayed among other of her remarkable contemporaries including: Moholoy-Nagy, Kurt Schwitters, Hans Richter… | | |

| | | Pink_Para_1stchoice © Petra Cortright | | | | | | | | 1 – 31 May 2019 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Petra Cortright’s core practice is the creation and distribution of digital and physical images using consumer or corporate software. Whether she is manipulating digital files into two-dimensional paintings in Photoshop or uploading videos to online platforms, the Internet is deeply ingrained in Cortright’s work. She became renowned for making self-portrait videos that use her computer’s webcam and default effects tools, which she would upload to YouTube and caption with spam text.
In Pink_Para_1stchoice (2013), Cortright performs a fragmented self-portrait, playing with the relationship between the computer screen and voyeurism, and the Internet’s effect on how we perceive subjectivity. The artist watches herself in the computer screen while singing along to a song we cannot hear. Through the webcam, Cortright presents herself as both subject and object, independent of any male or female gaze. In the context of a public screening, the work becomes a statement about the way women engage with the propagation of images on the Internet, both their own and those intended to represent or appeal to them.
“We are pleased to partner with Times Square Arts to further recontextualize Cortright’s webcam work beyond the YouTube platform as part of the Midnight Moment series.”
—Michael Connor, Artistic Director, Rhizome
Pink_Para_1stchoice is presented in partnership with Rhizome, which celebrates a seminal work by Cortright, VVEBCAM (2007), in Net Art Anthology, Rhizome’s online exhibition charting the history of net art through 100 key artworks. Learn more at anthology.rhizome.org/vvebcam. | | |
