This is the funniest email of the week and we love the pictures! I have been working on this project for a long time, at a slow pace because it takes me a lot of time, energy, and it is for various reasons complex to organize. I have for the moment 9 images, which seems to me the minimum number to start calling it a series; and I said to…
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.

I have to feel a physical connection with the…

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…

After demonstrating the Tenderness of Le Corbusier’s Concrete French ambassador to Delhi and passionate photographer Emmanuel Lenain is presenting another of his camera investigation in India’s urbanization, as in “when man turns his back, nature strikes back”. Using deliberately the reference to one episode of Star Wars “The Empire Strikes Back” he wanted to emphasize the forceful revenge of nature to man’s urbanization. This is a series of forty-one black…
Thierry Maindrault's Monthly Chronicle Respect is the word we hear on every street corner only to be told, in all areas, that it no longer represents anything. Respect is extinguished with the disappearance of values and their scale. More landmarks, more positioning, more respect, even minima. This observation, whose impact we are beginning to see in societal behavior, produces the same effects in creation and in technologies. Our Photography is…

A style-defining subculture emerged: affordable rents…

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 it illuminates result from Dr.…

After Rome, the exhibition of the French writer is being held this summer in Berlin. Images that explore the iperceivable of things and the photographer's quest for self discovered late in life. What would Hervé Guibert think seeing his photographs hanging on the walls of the KW, here in Berlin, more than thirty years after his death, he who had always considered himself an amateur photographer?

“It’s important that there’s a meaning to my photographs, a passion that sustains me, and a clear reason for being there. In 1979/1980 the subway contained all those things for me,” said Bruce Davidson. “I wanted to transform the subway from its dark, degrading and impersonal reality into images that open up our experience again to the color, sensuality and vitality of the individual souls that ride it each day.”…
“For East 100th Street, the idea was to get these pictures in front of the mayor and city officials to improve the conditions of that community. I felt that by documenting them, it was giving the community a human face and voice. I thought I could impart some positive knowledge, through my work, to make a change.” Bruce Davidson Bruce Davidson : The Way Back June 22 through September…
