The Eye Photography: World Photography Art History, Latest News and Photography Events

Archives - July 13, 2023 The Cantor Arts Center presents Reality Makes Them Dream: American Photography, 1929–1941, an exhibition featuring over 100 photographs, periodicals, and photobooks. This material collectively pushes against the typical history of 1930s photography that views the work of this period as primarily documentary, and instead illustrates that artists of this era frequently used photography to ignite the imagination. The exhibition and the expansive art historical narratives…

Archives - July 13, 2013 Zaolane works with “6 hands.” Well aware that we're shaking up the codes a little, we're proud to introduce Zaolane. Behind Zaolane are three strong personalities with complementary professional skills: a photographer, a 3D graphic designer, and a digital retoucher. It's the story of three young women who graduated in 2008 in the Photography and Post-Production specialties at Gobelins, l'école de l'image. After developing our…

Cape Verde in black and white In the depths of winter, my longing for sunshine led me Between the equator and the tropics, to a country I’d never even dreamt of Between lush vegetation and desert, a land of contrasts, with mountains rising from the sea. A country bathed in a constant stream of music that oscillates between Africa and Europe Where people wear perpetual smiles And a gentle warmth…

Asylum My series Asylum allowed me to seek refuge in these current challenging times of Covid 19. Each image involved careful planning, attention to detail and many days - even weeks to produce. Historically, the main bodies of my work are documentary where ethically little post processing is permitted. Asylum however, allowed me to venture to the other end of the photographic spectrum where I could go crazy with compositing,…

Équilibre This series of fifteen photographs is based on captured moments, where lines and shapes align of their own accord. I do not look for these compositions: I see them, I feel them, and I take the photo. Whether in the density of cities or the simplicity of a landscape, I photograph these balances as they appear to me, at the very moment they manifest. https://www.instagram.com/francoissauvephotos/ https://www.pictorem.com/fr/gallery/Francois.Sauve.Fine.Art.Photography

The Frontiers Legends are foundational narratives that pass on beliefs, seek to explain the intangible, and form the bedrock of communities confronted by natural phenomena that shape their very existence. Often, they populate the mountains with magical beings of uncertain intent: sometimes malevolent, mischievous, elusive, they appear as and when they please, and one never knows whether this is a good omen. Through this series, I set out in search…

Regina: College Life and Dreams In the spartan room of her halls of residence in Bari, Puglia — a bed, a desk, just a few square metres — Regina tries to forge her own identity, caught between uncertainty and a longing for freedom. Having left Rome years ago to follow a lover, she now dreams of dropping out of university to turn modelling into her career. An ordinary afternoon, in…

Chez Soi: De la vie à l'œuvre Charles-Henry Bédué brings together what constitutes the essence of his work: contemplation, creation, transmission, in order to explore the experience of encounter. "One evening, during the Unseen photography festival in Amsterdam, an unknown photographer invited me into her home. After a day spent looking at images from all over the world, often suspended in impersonal spaces, I was struck by the force of…

The place of the dog in urban tumult and street photography In the urban tumult, at the heart of hurried flows, honking horns, and anonymous crowds, the dog occupies a unique place. Both an intimate companion and a public figure, it moves through the city like a link between private space and the collective scene. Its presence, both discreet and expressive, makes it a privileged subject of street photography, where…

Published by Thames & Hudson, Spirits and Spaces is first monograph to present Roger Ballen's work in colour: a visual revelation that remains grounded in the chaotic, absurd psychological space of the Ballenesque. Having previously expressed no interest in colour photography, Roger Ballen was inspired to engage with the medium after receiving a Leica SL camera as a gift in 2016. Opening up to the potential of colour in his…

Incorpore is the visual account of an immersion. That of Australian photographer of Slovak origin Adrian Meško among the members of the Ballet National de Marseille, under the guidance of the collective (La)Horde. Over three months, shortly before the definitive lifting of pandemic-era travel restrictions, Adrian Meško spontaneously documented the daily life of a ballet company deprived of physical interaction with its audience and confined within Roland Simounet’s fortress-like architecture.…

Thierry Maindrault's Monthly Cogitations All the major international and national photography festivals have set up shop for the summer. All photographers across the globe—those truly deserving of the title and worthy of bearing with proud—have resumed their grumbling. This follows a pattern that has been firmly established for the past twenty years or so; for nothing is going right in the world of photographic creation—this is nothing new and, unfortunately,…
