| | | Untitled, 1954 © Seydou Keïta / SKPEAC / courtesy CAAC – The Pigozzi Collection, Geneva | | | | | | | | 6 April – 20 June 2018 | | | | Opening reception: Thursday 5 April 17:30 | | |  | | | | | | | | | | In the 1950s and 60s, a colourful collection of inhabitants of Bamako, capital of Mali, posed for Seydou Keïta (1921-2001, Mali).
People visited Keïta’s studio to have their picture taken at their best: wearing extravagant dresses made from wonderful textiles with splendidly formed headdresses, or posing in a modern Western suit with a bow tie, leaning against a motorcycle, or with a radio tucked under their arm. His oeuvre reflects a portrait of an era that captures Bamako’s transition from a cosmopolitan city in a French colony to the proud capital of independent Mali.
Keïta’s remarkable archive of over 10.000 negatives came to light in 1992 after a discovery by André Magnin, the then-curator of Jean Pigozzi's contemporary African art collection. Modern prints were printed from the negatives with Keïta’s collaboration, allowing his work to be introduced to the art world. International fame quickly followed. The exhibition in Foam consists of signed modern prints, and a large selection of unique vintage prints. | | |

| | | The Unseen 2015 © Tereza Zelenkova | | | | | | | | A Snake That Disappeared Through A Hole In The Wall | | | | 6 April – 10 June 2018 | | | | Opening reception: Thursday 5 April 17:30 | | | | | | | | | | | | | According to an old Slavic legend, a snake inhabits people’s homes and brings happiness and prosperity to the household. This ‘snake housekeeper’ was traditionally welcomed with a bowl of milk on the threshold. The story is one of the many folk tales from the Czech Republic which Tereza Zelenkova (1985, Ostrava) seeks to revive. Over the course of two years, the artist accumulated numerous stories that formed the starting point for extensive journeys through the landscape of her childhood.
Zelenkova unearthed tales that hover somewhere between history and myth. She photographed a hole in the bedroom wall of the ruthless sixteenth-century countess Elizabeth Bathory, who was said to bathe in the blood of virgins to preserve her youth. A door in the Gothic Houska Castle allegedly leads to the entrance gate to hell. And the centuries-old Byci Skala Cave – a rich archaeological site that is also considered a sacred space – turned out to be a mass grave for ritually sacrificed women. | | |

| | | Detail © Maia Flore, courtesy Galerie Esther Woerdehoff | | | | | | | | until 5 May 2018 | | | | | | | | | | | | | To open our new season of exhibitions, we are happy to present Maia Flore’s latest works, where collage and drawing come and meet her photography.
After winning the HSBC prize in 2015, she has been showing through numerous exhibitions a body of work defined by a search for bridges between reality and imaginary.In her art, she distorts, modifies or enhance the world, as to assert that she will notsubmit herself to its laws.
Since the fall of 2017, Maia Flore has been pursuing her research at the Fresnoy-Studio School of Contemporary Arts. This exceptional place of education leads her tothink about the way the body, actually her first tool, reacts with the environment in which it is placed. Starting from the reality and its limitations, she anchors her body inthe landscape she photographs, and with a thoughtful choreography, she balances thespace around her.
As part of the Circulation(s) Festival, Maia Flore presents in this exhibition situationsthat relate her beautiful and endless pursuit of the absolute moment; the one momentwhen everything is balanced and you feel a thrill that lasts a few seconds to then quicklydisappear. Now, we must start again. The photographs are quests, artistic processes fed by the artist’s wandering. She manages to get the photograph out of its frame byintervening after the shooting with collage and a mix of materials.
With this recent research, Maia Flore explores even further the relationship between body and space, and conveys with her images the sensations she herself felt: the fallingof her body, the blowing of the wind, the coldness of a block of ice, and finally, the alleviation of having escaped for a few moments from the rules of space and time. | | |

| | Robert McCabe: Mykonos, conversation 1955
Analog Gelatin Silver print
100 x 100 cm (39’ 3/8 x 39’ 3/8 inches)
© Robert McCABE courtesy galerie SIT DOWN | | | The Photography Show 2018 presented by AIPAD | | | | Robert McCabe » Greece, Images of an Enchanted Land, 1955-1965 | | | Presentation : April 5 - April 8 | Booth 705
Vernissage Wednesday April 4 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sit Down gallery for its first participation in The Photography Show will present the work of an American photographer, Robert A McCabe, who began taking photographs in Greece in the 1950s, before mass tourism, and when the islands and villages each still maintained their unique traditional culture.
In his pictures, McCabe has captured authentic scenes of Aegean life that can never be duplicated. He also photographed many archaeological sites and has a unique record of their condition after the War.
The gallery will present analog silver gelatin prints ranging from 50 x 50 cm to 100 x 100 cm as well as vintage prints by the photographer which will be exhibited for the very first time. There will also be on display prints made by Modernage Labs for an exhibition in 1967 at the Onassis Olympic Gallery in New York.
"Through his artistic vision, the art of Robert McCabe brings us back to an older Greece, when the light was stronger, clearer, and the monuments appeared to be revealed for the first time." Dr Vasileios Petrakos (General Secretary of the Archeological Society of Athens and General Secretary of the Academy of Athens) Excerpt from text for the exhibition of Mr McCabe’s photos on the occasion of the 180th anniversary of the Society.
"All of us have different criteria for judging photographs. For me, the subject must be compelling and the composition artful. And the image must reward me each time I see it. It must add something to my understanding of the world and the human condition – some universality. And unless it is a photograph of devastation or human suffering, it must be an image I would want to see often – one I could live with on my walls. So how is it that Robert McCabe, in h… | | |

| | | © Vinit Gupta, Untitled, 2013-2017 | | | | | | | INDIA - Contemporary Photography and New Media Art | | | | | | | until 22 April 2018 | | | | | | | | | | | | | The FotoFest 2018 Biennial, March 10 – April 22, 2018, is dedicated to INDIA: Contemporary Photographic and New Media Art. FotoFest 2018 speaks to a number of contemporary issues in India including gender and sexuality, land rights conflict, the environment, human settlement and migration, and caste and class divisions. The participating artists are from India and the global Indian diaspora.
Organized by Lead Curator Sunil Gupta and FotoFest Executive Director Steven Evans, FotoFest 2018 will be one of the largest exhibitions of contemporary photography by artists of Indian origin to be presented in the United States. The artists were handpicked by Mr. Gupta and Mr. Evans while journeying through multiple cities in India and across the world.
“The artists, all of Indian origin, are imagining and responding to what India means today in its myriad complexities, given its ancient culture and more recent emancipation from British colonialism,” says Biennial Lead Curator Sunil Gupta. “They were selected by a process of portfolio reviews and face-to-face meetings with nearly three times as many artists than are in the show. The final short list was arrived at by assessing the engagement of their works with both the issues and the technology that define photography in the world today.”
“It is very exciting for FotoFest to be working with this remarkable range of artists,” says Steven Evans, FotoFest Executive Director and Biennial Co-Curator. “Some are well known to those familiar with the international world of contemporary art, while others will be new discoveries, as they are exhibiting internationally for the first time. We are looking forward to bringing this work together under the rubric of the … | | |
