© Cortis & Sonderegger, 2019 THE RAVESTIJN GALLERY | | | | | | | | 26 October – 7 December 2019 | | | | Opening: Friday 25 October 2019 5:00 pm | | |  | | | | | | | | | | The Ravestijn Gallery is proud to present the first solo show in the Netherlands of Swiss artist duo Jojakim Cortis and Adrian Sonderegger, known as Cortis & Sonderegger. The exhibition will show photographs from their renowned series Icons, in which the pair trawled countless books filled with the world’s most iconic photographs before recreating many of them through meticulous dioramas.
Robert Capa’s The Falling Soldier and Henri Cartier Bresson’s Derriere la Gare Saint-Lazare are two photographs preserved in the canon of photography. And the attack on Pearl Harbor, John T. Daniels’ image of the Wright Brothers’ first powered flight and news footage from 9/11 are all etched into humankind’s collective memory. Cortis & Sonderegger lean on both the photographic medium and the wider world to reproduce what seems impossible to duplicate. Carefully considering the conditions in which each original image was made, the artists then mimic each photograph in their studio to an inconceivable level of realism, quite literally remaking an icon. It is easy to be in awe at their dedication to imitation, yet for the final photographs of their creations, the camera is always pulled back, framing their image within a new image and revealing their studio, tools, apparatus and debris in a blatant and humorous turn. Truth and illusion, past and present are coalesced; the theatrical creation as the past surrounded by the new frame of the present. | | |

| | | Lia Darjes: Stillleben mit Quitten und Kürbis, Kaliningrad, 2016, 57 x 44 cm, Archival Pigment Print, Ed. of 7 + 2 AP's | | | | | | | | 26 October – 21 December, 2019 | | | | Opening: Friday, 25 October, 7pm | | | | | | | | | | | | | Asked about the most important influence on her work, Lia Darjes answers: "Visits in the Berlin Gemäldegalerie."
This influence is clearly visible in her new book "Tempora Morte". The photographic series was created in 2016 in Kaliningrad, Russia, and documents the modest roadside market stands where old women sell the modest harvest from their garden or the nearby forest to supplement their meagre pensions. "In autumn you may find three apples, some raisins and two bulbs of garlic. At other times of the year maybe two jars of homemade strawberry jam and two cabbages or dried fish."
Theoretically, these images are therefore documentary images, they could also be understood as a reportage on topics such as old-age poverty or micro-economics – but in fact, the subject matter is iconically exaggerated. Through the use of a small flash and the underexposure of the background, Darjes creates still life studies reminiscent of the opulent paintings of old Dutch masters.
"I had long been looking for an opportunity to do a contemporary still life project. But I did not want to stage those still lifes in the studio, but find them in the real world, extracting them from reality. I could do just that for Tempora Morte."
Lia Darjes was born in Berlin in 1984 and grew up in Hamburg. She studied with Prof. Ute Mahler first at HAW in Hamburg and then as a master class student with Prof. Ute Mahler and Ingo Taubhorn at Ostkreuzschule in Berlin. Since 2018 she herself has a teaching position at Ostkreuzschule. Her award-winning work is exhibited internationally.
The book to the series "Tempora Morte" will be published in the fall of 2019 with a … | | |

© Isabelle Armand | | | | | | Levon and Kennedy: Mississippi Innocence Project | | | | 26 October - 30 November 2019 | | | | Opening: Friday, 25 October, 6pm | | | | | | | | | | | | | Gallery Julian Sander is pleased to present photographs by Isabelle Armand: With the “Mississippi Innocence Project”, for which a photo book of the same name has been published, she accompanies two Americans from the Mississippi Delta after their release from decades of imprisonment.
In the early 1990s, Levon Brooks and Kennedy Brewer, living in small communities in rural Mississippi, were sentenced for the murder and rape of two little girls from their communities in separate trials. However, both men were innocent. Levon Brooks was sentenced to life imprisonment even though he had an alibi. A few years later Kennedy Brewer was sentenced to death. He was imprisoned for 15 years. In 2008, the New York Innocence Project, which investigates legal cases, exonerated both men.
After intense re-investigations, it was possible to establish a connection between the two cases, which had taken place exactly according to the same pattern. Subsequent DNA tests revealed the actual perpetrator.
The main evidence that led to the conviction of Levon and Kennedy consisted of bite marks on the victims. A prosecutor testified in court that the traces were consistent with the defendants’ dental impressions. A group of experts commissioned by the Innocence Project later found that the wounds were not biting marks. As a forensic discipline, the principle of using bite marks as a piece of evidence has been criticized heavily in the US recently. Through subsequent investigations, numerous other unjustly imprisoned prisoners could be exonerated.
In 2012, Isabelle Armand came across the cases of Brooks and Brewer and decided to document the reality and circumstances of the lives of the two men and their families. Both individual fates stand… | | |

| | Albarrán Cabrera, The Mouth of Krishna #34177, 2019
Tirage pigmentaire sur papier japonais et feuille d'or, 17 x 25 cm, ed. 20 | | | | | | | | 24 October ‐ 21 December 2019 | | | | Opening: Thursday, 24 October, 6pm | | | | | | | | | | | | | With Someone lived this, their first exhibition in Paris, the Spanish duo Albarrán Cabrera questions the reality of our memory. They invite us to think of works of art as the support of an imaginary journey, towards dreams, which allows the creation of fictional memories.
These photographs are inspired by their travels, their readings, the artworks they love and which move them. In front of the beauty of landscapes, glittering light, subtle colours, the viewer also dreams of escaping time, of reconnecting with nature - so present in their works - as a consolation for the world's current events. The mystery of the shaded figures in the series This is you here reminds us of lost friends or forgotten childhood memories that only photography can trace.
Over the years, with an excellent knowledge of history of photography and ancient techniques, they have developed unique and precious printing processes. They combine traditional silver printing, cyanotype or platinum- palladium printing with the use of pigments, Japanese paper and gold leaf. Their images are thus adorned with a singular intensity and light that seem to make the image shimmer, and enliven it with the emotion that was part of its creation. Far from being a mere image of reality, Albarrán Cabrera's photography becomes a magical object, a window opening onto other worlds. | | |

| | | Sissi Farassat: Tanja III, 2018, 40 x 50 cm, C-Print embroidered with thread, Unique piece | | | | | | | | 24 October – 24 November 2019 | | | Opening: Wednesday, 23 October, 6-9pm
The artist is present. | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Bildhalle has represented Sissi Farassat since 2018 and is now pleased to present the first solo exhibition in the gallery, for which the artist has almost exclusively created new works.
"The pictures that Sissi Farassat chooses for her works are mostly autobiographical, such as self-portraits and photographs of female family members, sometimes also found snapshots. The photographs - potentially innumerable prints are possible in photography - are transformed into individual pieces through elaborate work with pearls, crystals, sequins and threads. These not only reflect the artist's personal history, but also take up the heritage of Persian carpet knotting and embroidery as well as the tradition of Viennese craftsmanship and design. Sissi Farassat thus achieves a fusion on its own: She combines appropriation art and photography with craftsmanship, reflects with a feminist approach the gaze through the camera lens on women as well as on the art of embroidery, weaving and sewing associated with femininity.
In the fast-moving present, this time-consuming manual work possesses something anachronistic, even subversive. Sissi Farassat connects embroidery with the oriental culture she comes from. With a meditative-concentrated activity carried out in peace, which reveals perseverance and the desire to put on a second layer or level. A layer that either hides, emphasizes, or exaggerates what lies beneath it - the overview that photography supposedly provides - or at least provides it with an unimagined brilliance. The artist's self-portrait and the image of the women in her family are covered or isolated and emphasized by ornamentation - thus linking her intimacy with our voyeurism.

TAXED TO THE MAX asks: how does the increasingly perfected entanglement of corporatism, finance capital and modern government affect the lives of regular people?
With the 34 participants, the festival presents a refreshing mix of photo series, mixed media, video and sound installations, performances, and spatial work on this theme.

The exhibition will be opened on 13 September, while simultaneously the annual moon festival called "Tsukimi" takes place in Japan. This ancient Japanese tradition, which translates into "moon viewing", goes back to the 8th century.
Planned on the same date, the "Moon Show" will bring two unique photographic positions together. United by a common subject, but with a very different concept of visual imagery, the authors play with our "perception of images" in an age of fake news and alternative facts.
The spatial installation and presentation of the photographs create a state of suspense between fact and fiction, forming a field of magical tension. Fascinating photographic interpretations of William Turner and Caspar David Friedrich paintings meet mysterious black and white photographs of unknown moons, whose origins and provenance can’t be traced back without in-depth research: "Alternative Moons".
A selection of the two series mentioned above will be featured at Galerie Clairefontaine, Espace 1. | | |

Film still. | | | | | | | May You Live in Interesting Times | | | | | | | | ...until 24 Nov 2019 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 58th International Art Exhibition, titled May You Live In Interesting Times, will take place from 11 May to 24 November 2019 (Pre-opening on 8, 9, 10 May). The title is a phrase of English invention that has long been mistakenly cited as an ancient Chinese curse that invokes periods of uncertainty, crisis and turmoil; "interesting times", exactly as the ones we live in today. The 58th Exhibition is curated by Ralph Rugoff, currently the director of the Hayward Gallery in London. Between 1985 and 2002 he wrote art and cultural criticism for numerous periodicals, publishing widely in art magazines as well as newspapers, and published a collection of essays, Circus Americanus (1995). During the same period he began working as an independent curator. The Exhibition will also include 90 National Participations in the historic Pavilions at the Giardini, at the Arsenale and in the historic city centre of Venice. Four countries will be participating for the first time at the Biennale Arte: Ghana, Madagascar, Malaysia and Pakistan. The Dominican Republic exhibits for the first time at the Biennale Arte with its own national pavilion. | | |
