Deauville is a generous land for photography. The idyll of the fascinations of Robert Doisneau, Robert Capa or Gisèle Freund and the town can today boast of hosting on its shores and within its walls, one of the most exciting festivals, Planches Contact. Since 2021, Deauville has had a multi-purpose cultural facility, in place of a nineteenth-century convent of the Franciscan sisters, which has been remodelled and upgraded by the…
The Fahey/Klein Gallery presents a selection of photographs from the queen of female sensuality, photographer Ellen von Unwerth. In her exhibition, “Bombshell”, the works on display revel in von Unwerth’s experimentation with archetypes and stereotypes that result in images that are spontaneous, playful, and alive. Ellen von Unwerth’s thirty-year storied career defined the aesthetic of the 90’s and 2000’s and has made her a staple of fashion photography. Crafting cinematic…
For his first book, Etienne Renzo offers us the outcome of several decades of his photographic approach. Since his beginnings as a professional, a long time ago, the photographer pivoted around Woman's body. And then randomly during a shooting session, he met the Brazilian dancer (a bit contortionist!): Maïra de Oliveira Aggio. The two accomplices, each master of their discipline of expression, find themselves around their common love of nature.…
transit - in-between spaces, searching, pausing: Upheavals are the recurring theme of the thirty black-and- white works exhibited by Berlin photographer Tanja Nedwig at Galerie erstererster. Whether it is a place like Berlin's Tacheles, long since disappeared from the cityscape, or currently the Jahnsportpark at Mauerpark before its redevelopment. A Sunday afternoon tea, the movements of a young boxer or the gaze of a woman at the end of her…
At the age of three, Salih Basheer lost his mother and his father in the space of twenty-two days. He left Khartoum to live with his grandmother in the small town of Al-Faw in eastern Sudan. Years later, when he returned to his hometown for the first time, the project of this first book was born, a sort of initiatory quest in search of the memories of his childhood and…
‘You cannot change your skin’ was borne out of documentary work British photographer Jonathan Moore undertook in Ukraine. He travelled to Ukraine independently in January 2022 with the idea of photographing what life was like for people living under the weight of an impending war. He spent the weeks before the invasion in Mariupol. After fleeing to Lviv, he volunteered as a photographer for the Ukrainian Red Cross where he…
Rachel Wolfe’s exhibition of her recent landscape photography serves as a perfect antidote to the turbulence and hardship experienced in many parts of the world. Human dignity does not have to be savoured in small doses escaping the violence of war, social unrest or just surviving the cost of living crisis. A sense of spiritual calmness permeates the photos of the Nordic/American photographer. The vast expanse and drama of the…

This exhibition is featured during Women’s History Month, and we are excited to showcase the diversity and breadth of the female gaze…
This project is about an invisible light, from which I was often able to conjure up a series of images - let's call them worlds - where you could hear a multitude of voices. Voices too loud to hold in the mind and too volatile to grasp. Voices that could not simply be silenced. Like demons, they belonged nowhere and spoke of the unknown. Imagine that you have never known…
The shots for these two series were taken in the Plan de Campagne shopping center in 2022 from 7 p.m. to 1 a.m. for 5 nights. This site is one of the largest shopping centers in France located between Aix-en-Provence and Marseille. Although noticeably different in their forms, the two series question the strange beauty of buildings, objects, spaces illuminated by night lighting. The erasure of the writings on the…
