Laughter. It is the first thing that strikes us when we visit Sophie Calle’s exhibition at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark. Visitors, whether alone or in groups, often find their jaw muscles tensing or let out a faint snort through their nose when their gaze falls upon one of the French artist’s projects. In a country where the locals are known for being rather reserved, this can…
Jackson Fine Art presents Vee Speers' newest release The King's Court, a series influenced from the extravagant courts of Versailles. Known for drawing historical and cultural references throughout her career, this collection explores contemporary themes of identity, performance, and illusion that nods to the classical portraiture of the period. Like the courtiers who lived under the watchful eye of the King, her subjects are caught between self-expression and societal expectation. Spoiled by adoration, Louis…
DashBook publishes Épreuves bleues by Julie Michelet. Épreuves bleues is an artist’s book built around the cyanotype, an early photographic process whose deep blue becomes here the territory of an intimate exploration of identity. Through portraits, self-portraits and staged scenes, Julie Michelet interrogates what constitutes an individual: what is visible, what is lived, what is inherited and what is transformed. The images answer one another, overlap and metamorphose across the…

For more than forty years, François Halard has explored through his images the sensitive traces left by time, architecture and landscape not as backdrops, but as spaces inhabited by an invisible presence.

A choice that seems entirely natural given how fully the photographer’s world enters into dialogue with that of…

Galerie PARALLAX presents the exhibition Hors Cadre, with works by Alessandra Calo, Kati Dovellos, Arina Essipowitsch, Denis Felix, JBN and le Renard Pâle. The frame delimits the image.

It is the law of the image — and what we do not see becomes all…

It is time I would even say I have well exceeded any reasonable deadline to bring this anthology of the finest posteriors illustrated by the greatest nude photographers of the 20th century and beyond to a close. I may be forgiven if I confess that throughout this period I have been occupied with verifying and refining the inventory of my collection, which now stands at 1,112 books and magazines, the…
