AntwerpPhoto is now in its third edition, and once again in the emblematic Loodswezen (the Pilotage) on the banks of the Scheldt. Perhaps for the last time in the eclectic neo-renaissance building from 1895, as the monument is being renovated and will become the epicentre of Antwerp fashion - but in any case, lets have a look at this edition. AntwerpPhoto does not select photographers according to a theme, but…
When the parental home of Karin Borghouts (1959) burned down, she photographed the images of what was left of it. She also found a reproduction of a painting by van Gogh on the scene; it made her realise how much the artist had marked her. It became the beginning of a quest in the footsteps of Vincent, from his birthplace Zundert in 1853 to his death in Auvers-sur-Oise in 1890.…

It is, to us, a priceless view of who we are and wouldn’t exist without his gifted shutter, lens and…
To be at the heart of the action to testify. To put in the center of the image the news of the world and the men and women who live there. For more than a year, this is the mission that Belarusian photojournalists have been pursuing to show the trials and movements of a people rising up in the face of increasingly authoritarian power. In Belarus, in Europe, thousands of…
David Schonauer of Pro Photo Daily relayed an article in The Guardian in which legendary photographer David Bailey, 83, has revealed he has vascular dementia, the second most common form of dementia after Alzheimer’s, notes The Guardian. When the news are devastating, Bailey sense of humor and life philosophy still prevails: “It’s a fucking bore but it’s just one of those things. In some ways it’s good: I can see…
Hors Cadres - text by Éric Bouvet The watchmaker measures the course of time, the photographer stops it. It is as much his freedom as his constraint. Free to pause the world with one frame. Constrained by a technical framework from which he must break free in order to gaze at the expanse of the earth. Because, to exercise the most beautiful profession offered to men, there is a price…

Of great interest is the reportage "The Colors Empire" by Indian photographer Avinash Mishra (b. 1999) taken during the famous "colour ceremony" in Mathura. With a language strongly oriented towards the rendering of moving masses, the artist, through the choice of black and white photography, transforms the substance of chromatic contrasts into a vivid representation of humanity and a religious sense of life. MUSEC, Lugano www.musec.ch 29 ARTS IN…
With the project "When I was a Child", Li Zhang (b. 1991) conducts an introspective investigation into his childhood by reworking old pictures taken by his grandfather using a scanner and camera.
