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

Archives - July 14, 2022 Monroe Gallery of Photography presents an exhibition celebrating the Gallery’s 20th anniversary in Santa Fe. “Imagine a World Without Photojournalism” is a multi-photojournalist presentation of news events of the 20th and 21st Centuries. Across America and throughout the world, photojournalists working to bring the world vital news have come under attack, often from authorities, governments, and groups using violence and repression as a form of…

Archives - July 14, 2023 Wilde Gallery in Zurich presents Nan Goldin (b. 1953 D.C., USA). The exhibition highlights artworks from various series created by the artist throughout previous collaborations with the gallery over the span of two decades. Goldin has emerged as one of the most influential photographers of the late 20th century, renowned for her deeply personal and unreserved portraiture. Through her intimate images, she creates a visual…

Summer is here for The Eye of Photography. Send us your photos! Starting later this this week and until the end of August, you will find every morning a mix of world photographic news with your photos of the summer. Joseph Caprio sent us the first image of the season. Anyone can send their summer image, but don’t forget that The Eye of Photography owes its survival essentially to its subscribers.…

Laurence Guenoun : The quiet truth of images Photography, for Laurence Guenoun, is never about appropriating reality, but rather about a form of openness to the world. Her gaze stands in direct opposition to contemporary visual predation: it moves slowly, almost cautiously, as though each image must first obtain the silent consent of the person it reveals. In an era saturated with loud and authoritarian images, her work reintroduces the…

The Musée Granet in Aix-en-Provence presents, through January 3, 2027, a new exhibition devoted to the photographs of Paul McCartney (Liverpool, 1942). “Paul McCartney Photographer 1963-64 Eyes of the Storm” with more than 250 photographs taken by the musician between ’63 and ’64 offers a spontaneous look at a pivotal period, when Beatlemania spread beyond Liverpool and the United Kingdom to conquer the entire world, changing their lives forever. Rediscovered…

Centro Italiano per la Fotografia opens its summer programme with two exhibitions that mark the beginning of François Hébel’s artistic direction: Retrospective is the first major exhibition in Italy dedicated to Harry Gruyaert, one of the leading figures of contemporary photography. Born in Belgium in 1941 and a member of Magnum Photos, Gruyaert was among the first European photographers, in the 1970s and 1980s, to move beyond a descriptive use of colour…

Camille-Renée Devid Born 1974 in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Lives and works in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Camille-Renée Devid is a visual artist working with photography, collage, and hand-painted interventions. Her work explores identity, memory, and belonging. Through an intuitive, research-based process, her images move between intimacy and abstraction, allowing ambiguity to remain part of the meaning. She published My Other Side with Schilt Publishing in 2014 and has exhibited internationally, including Voies Off…

Anne-Lise Broyer Born 1975, Lons-le-Saunier, France. Lives and works in Paris, France. In 2023, Anne-Lise Broyer was awarded the inaugural residency at the Musée de l’Armée – Hôtel national des Invalides, followed by the Niépce Gens d’images Prize in 2024. For more than twenty-five years, she has developed a photographic practice that can be described as an experience of literature through the gaze, closely linking reading and the emergence of…

The photographs of Bertien van Manen (1935–2024) are neither a private diary nor a family picture book. While some of the visual codes here might evoke aspects of either genre, the photographs meet none of the prerequisites. They are not about her, or about rituals, or about events, or about staged scenes. One might characterize her work as an intimate, subjective chronicle of the lives of ordinary people who, tossed…

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…
