From 1984 to 1991, “God” lived in Naples, Italy. Outside the San Paolo stadium, every other Sunday, he could be found walking through the city’s streets, in a shoe store or in a restaurant by the sea. Diego Armando Maradona’s presence in Naples was much more than a football phenomenon for the Neapolitans: it was above all a religious experience. The presence of Dios in their city was a mystical…

This is one of the touching emails we received this week. It comes from photographer AnnMarie Tornabene. During the holidays, my husband and I had COVID and then I developed what was called Long COVID which meant that I was no longer contagious but had lingering symptoms which included serious fatigue where I was not able to do anything at all except eat and sleep. I also had body aches…
For his second exhibition at the in camera gallery, the Catalan photographer Txema Salvans guides us, as usual, through a candid journey far from any artifice. Industrial areas, cargo ports, power stations and evanescent seaside resorts, the series “My Kingdom” documents with humor and light tenderness the gloomy summer adventures of the Spaniards. “I photograph my own culture, people and landscapes. I have to feel a physical connection with the…
Willy Maywald (1907-1985) was one of the most important photographers in Paris from the 1930s to the 1960s. His training at the Werkkunstschulen in Krefeld, Cologne and Berlin shaped his avant-garde formal language. In 1932 he moved on the Seine, where he made friends with many protagonists of artistic modernism. His range of subjects, which includes both commissioned and free works, extends from a spectacular collection of portrait photographs and…

Since 2006, Dany Leriche and Jean Michel Fickinger have been making numerous trips to Mali to meet the leaders of the various brotherhoods of hunters-donso. Guardians of a way of thinking and rites called "animist", a representation of the original world that the wear and tear of time has spared, these "hunters of the invisible" controlling the magic, perpetuate the past and knowledge. They are both healers and soothsayers. Long…
An opportunity, two in fact, to deepen our knowledge of the work by this author, who shed new light on the landscape, the people who inhabit it and the space of the world. The occasion, then, is two exhibitions dedicated to him (as well as two books), which are being held almost simultaneously in Parma and Milan and which, in these years, when the dematerialisation of the image seems to…

I met Julian Sander through the DGPh, the German Association for Photography, back during the times of Corona. We talked about his gallery program, the legacy of his great-grandfather, August Sander, and the focus of his gallery. I am, therefore, all the more pleased to do this proper recap with Julian, shortly after his brilliant presentation of August Sander's body of work "People of the 20th Century," which he exhibited during…
Miami Beach Convention Center, Wednesday, Dec 4th, 2024 The quiet calm from Untitled spilled into the Convention Hall on Miami Beach. Arriving a bit earlier, I wandered upstairs, grabbed a spinach empanada, and settled into a chair on the roof deck. Here, Miami revealed its magic: crisp breezes swayed palm trees, their shimmering leaves catching the light and inviting a moment of stillness. Right at 11am, I joined the line…
I am stupid. I gave as the author of an astonishing photo shown at Paris Photo 2024 the name of a Belgian painter who died in 1949: James Ensor. This astonishing photograph entitled The Seventh Seal is actually by Bart Ramakers. To make up for it, here is a portfolio of his work. As well as a text describing his photographic approach. Jean-Jacques Naudet Bart Ramakers and his artistic team…
Charly Broyez & Laurent Kronental present their series La Cité Oasis (2019 – 2023) with this text: There are places that we think we know without ever having seen them. Whether it seems familiar or foreign to us, La Grande Motte concentrates a singular evocative power in its name alone. As in fairy tales, it appears as soon as it is called, a fantastic land emerging from the marshes of…
La chambre claire Galerie in Douarnenez presents an exhibition by Fanny Penin entitled Les Assises until January 4, 2025. It is accompanied by this text by Éric Premel. Sometimes it only takes a chance encounter, one day, tattooed in the memory, for years later to see arise emergencies that we did not suspect and have a long and patient journey to explore this past encounter. A trivial incident that will…
