| John Vachon: An Ozark mountain farmer and family, Missouri. May, 1940. | | | REOPENING | | THE BITTER YEARS 1935-1941 | | | | Open days: Thursday 21 July 6-10pm
Friday 22 July and Saturday 23 July 12am - 10pm | | | | | | | | "The Bitter Years" is the last exhibition Edward Steichen organized as director of the photography department at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York. It was created in 1962 and pays tribute to documentary photography, featuring over 200 images from one of the greatest collective projects in the history of pho¬tography: the documentation of rural America during the Great Depression, which was carried out between 1935 and 1943 by the Farm Security Administration (FSA). The project was supervised by Roy Stryker and involved a number of now world-renowned photographers, such as Walker Evans, Dorothea Lange, Russell Lee and Arthur Rothstein. They travelled the length and breadth of their country to create a shattering collection of images depicting America in crisis. The result of this Government commission, which aimed to support F. D. Roosevelt’s New Deal policy, consists of more than 200,000 negatives. | | |

| | | | Charles Gatewood, Annie Sprinkle and Fakir, 1993 (Detail) |
| | | | | | | Fri 12 Aug 19:00 3 Jul – 29 Aug 2016 | | Charles Gatewood, who died this spring, took pictures from the 1960s until the end of his life. His passing on April 28th 2016, leaves a gap in our lives which we are temporarily seeking to fill with an amazing, career-spanning show of his photographs, collages and personal ephemera - You gotta put the book on the table: Art by Charles Gatewood.
Gatewood made his first sale of a photograph in 1966 with his iconic portrait of Bob Dylan. From 1966-1975, Gatewood worked on assignment for Rolling Stone, The New York Times, Harper’s, Time, and other national publications. | |

| HAN Sungpil: Tandem Sequence, Namhansanseong Fortress, Archival pigment print, 2011 © HAN Sungpil | | | | 23 July – 13 August, 2016 | | | | | | | | As a strong supporter of Korean photography's next generation, starting from early 2015 The Museum of Photography, Seoul has openly received and reviewed portfolios by Korea photographers in their 30~40s. Works of talented artists were chosen and presented by group and solo exhibitions annually. This year, following the group of artists who react with a keen sense to urban landscape which surrounds them, the project continues with HAN Sungpil’s solo exhibition: Fantasmagoría. The Image selection for this exhibition was conducted under the theme of this year’s young Korean photographers project: "city". The exhibition mainly talks about urban rupture we’ve repeatedly encountered with in a great or small scale in the contemporary society. A series of representative works that unveil site specificity of Seoul and simultaneously covey the subject of city development from Façade and Memories and Traces were selected. | | |

| | | | | | | Our universe is of perennial interest, appearing in art all around the world as an object of worship and study over the centuries, and spawning countless stories. “The Universe and Art” in just one exhibition, will offer a diverse selection of around 200 items from across the globe and down the centuries, in multiple genres. Comprising four sections the exhibition will offer novel, future-oriented views of the cosmos and mankind. “MAM Screen 004” will be held as a screening program of single-channel video works in conjunction with “The Universe and Art” This exhibition aims to help us get an overview of the modern human society through the universe and reexamine the Earth from more of a “cosmic” viewpoint, which could be the key to understanding the geopolitics, gender issues, as well as the meaning of the word “planet” and “alien.” | | |

| Car Park, St. Louis, USA, 1953 | 46 x 31 cm | Archival Pigment Print | Edition 8 | © Werner Bischof/Magnum Photos | | | | 25 August to 1 October 2016 | | Opening: Wednesday 24 August 2016, 6:30-10pm NEW LOCATION: Stauffacherquai 56, 8004 Zurich | | | | | | | | In 1936, when Werner Bischof was 20, he opened his photographic studio. The notice on the door read "Foto-Grafik". The exhibition takes up this theme. It begins with some little-known early studio work, which reflects the strength of form and the masterly interplay of light and shade which were to become the hallmark of Werner Bischof‘s later photography. The exhibition covers his time as a photojournalist in a few iconic images, and goes on to pay more attention to Bischof‘s later years. His photography develops its full power in Japan and the Americas (the USA), journeys undertaken from 1951 to 1953, shortly before his death. His motive in undertaking them was to break free of the confines of commission photography and invent a new visual language. Despatched to Tokyo by Magnum Photos, Bischof discovered a passion for Japan and extended his stay to nearly a year.. | | |
