Elisa Benedetti b. 1970, Caracas, Venezuela ; resides in Miami. I was born in Caracas, Venezuela, and moved to Miami in 2018. It was then that I decided to pursue photography seriously as a profession. Initially, I focused on capturing landscapes, particularly the beautiful sunrises and sunsets around Florida. In 2019, I attended a documentary photography workshop, and since then, documentary photography has become my passion. I embarked on a…
Sofia Valiente b. 1990, Portland, Oregon. Lives in Miami, FL. My practice stems from the documentary tradition— I employ an anthropological approach to fieldwork and produce photographic and lens based media projects while embedded within communities. Relationships and involvement with communities beyond photographs is central to my practice. The dissemination of my work has always been integral to my practice. I produce photobooks and work with archival materials, textual assemblage,…
RemiJin Camping Née à Valenzuela, Philippines. She lives in Pembroke Pines, FL. Farmlands have always had a special place for me. I come from farmers on both sides of my family, rice farmers on my mother's side, and dairy farmers on my father's side. I wasn’t raised on a farm myself, but while growing up in the Philippines I lived surrounded by rice, sugarcane, mangoes, coffee, and pineapple farms. I…

Miyako Yoshinaga Gallery, New York, will present works by Melissa Shook (b. 1939 - d. 2020) who began a personal documentary upon her daughter’s birth in 1965. The “Krissy” series continued for 18 years until her daughter's high school graduation. While other photographers/artists at that time used a camera to question their own identities, Shook committed to her first “Daily Self-Portraits” for one year from 1972 to 1973 and repeated…
If one lingers a beat longer than usual while looking at Michael Dressel's photographs of people in Los Angeles, California, something beneath the surface, easy to miss at first glance, will be revealed. It may be a gesture or glance, a detail of content within the frame lingering to the side of or behind the first visual plane. Los Angeles as a place is like this, too, with struggle and…
An icon of gay art and one of the most famous names in physique photography, Bruce Bellas is remembered today as a pioneer of beefcake.

Emilie Erbin : From Architecture to Beauty Photographer whose artistic journey embodies a fascinating transformation, Émilie Erbin has evolved from capturing interior design and architecture to a universe more focused on beauty and cosmetics. Initially captivated by structures, shapes, and spaces, she skillfully transferred this passion to faces and bodies, using light as a tool to sculpt both matter and emotion. While her work is rooted in architecture, it has…

The Bronx Documentary Center’s exhibition, El Salvador: Legacy of Violence, pairs two important and historic photographic projects done three decades apart–one by American photographer Robert Nickelsberg, the other by Salvadoran photographer Fred Ramos–bodies of work that mirror, inform and resonate, each with the other. The two projects define El Salvador's troubled Cold War history, document today's political evolution and focus on US complicity and negligence in the small Central American…

The auction house states : The Anonymous, ninth plate daguerreotype, ca 1850-1855 depicting a white woman and African American or mixed-race man in an amorous pose, his arm draped around her shoulder, pulling her close while they hold hands.

The 17th edition of the NICEPHORE+ International Photography Festival opens its doors to the public until October 26 in Clermont-Ferrand. Another look at fashion photography is presented as follows by Patrick Ehme, artistic director of the festival: For many “purists”, fashion photography is, at most, only “illustration”. This on the pretext that it responds to an order with a utilitarian, mercantile and consumerist purpose... And yet! It turns out, and…
The Moments / The Street Scenes For me, photographing the streets is a process of actively observing without being noticed, it is almost like being a silent shadow; in a way, you put your identity in your pocket and become a channeler of emotions of strangers. Thanks to this voyeuristic approach I have been privileged to catch tiny little moments: a gesture or glimpse that exposes loneliness, hope, affection, joy…
A Life Long Pursuit The U.S./Mexican Border From the age of three years old, growing up in Calexico, California in a house just literally across the street from the U.S./Mexican border, I have always had a cameraaround my neck. My passion for photography began early, capturing family moments and documenting the border – a subject that has remained a lifelong focus. Whether in Calexico, Texas, Arizona or San Ysidro, the…
I am the Sea The project relates the author’s special connections to the sea and swimming. Since childhood, the sea has been a symbolic environment for the author, from which she draws psychological certainty and support. Swimming, physically overcoming the expanse of the sea, becomes a metaphor for the path to oneself, an accessible way of reassembling one’s personality, a simple way to look into one’s own depth. Endowed with…
Łódź, the “Unloved”. Łódź, a former manufacturing empire, where urbex and architectural splendor mix unabashedly, where past glory and present ugliness vie for the photographer's favor. A city in search of itself, disconcerting but fascinating. Two days to discover this city, unloved by the Poles themselves, difficult to get to grips with but moving when you take the trouble to study its history, whose photogenic charm is hidden in the…
Kaleidoscarbres Long fascinated by bare trees that desperately stretch their bends towards the sky in an attempt to catch a few rays of sunshine to warm up in winter, I photographed them aimlessly. Until, through a play of symmetries, a lacemaker turns it into a collection of astonishing arabesques as in a kaleidoscope. https://photalmo.fr
Objectification As an artist I like to explore different mediums. Photography has allowed to make pictures using a wide range of materials. The pictures appear to be portraits with out directly photographing the person. I play with this concept finding that I could create a different sort of portrait then just photographing the person alone. www.dareuc.net
Roman holiday August. With the temperature and humidity rising at unsustainable levels, the only chance of survival for people living in Rome, far from exotic destinations, is to grab a few square meters either on the rare beaches accessible without paying on the nearby coast or the brand-new city beach carved out of the Tiber's mud. From Ostia to Anzio, the ritual repeats: umbrellas, deckchairs, towels everywhere; people drying themselves…
Release by Setanta Books of the book by Frederik Axling. He presents it like this: For more than 10 years I devoted all my spare time to making electronic music but about three years ago something happened. I got tired. I stayed home from work and sold my whole studio. To get back on track I bought a camera and started walking around the city taking pictures. And since then…
