Fragility Road Steps of Melancholy I travelled between space and time, between touch and smell, between sight and hearing. Everything was open, closed in my house. The rust-coloured air smells of antiquity. Of an antique that, you feel, belongs to you. Of an antique that speaks to you. That colour speaks to you. Roots present in things appear to you in the flow of views and perspectives. Visions of feeling…

Being: I am in, I found you I became who I was afraid of becoming. A being with a social form as its only identity. And the worst thing for the one I was is that he did rather well. 40 years ago I was doing photography then for more than 20 years I stopped. I traveled and led a professional career as a sociologist, leaving the photography boxes in…

“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…

“Riding on the bus with the Freedom Riders, I became sensitized, and the exposure developed my perception,” said Bruce Davidson. “At that point, I decided to continue to follow the path toward freedom and justice known as the Civil Rights Movement.” Bruce Davidson : The Way Back June 22 through September 16, 2023 Howard Greenberg Gallery 41 East 57th Street New York, NY 10022 www.howardgreenberg.com
“There was nothing overtly dangerous in those Brooklyn Gang photographs,” said Bruce Davidson. “They didn’t have weapons like gangs have today. I really focused on the way they felt. They were depressed. They were poor. I didn’t know quite how poor they were, but they were very poor and dysfunctional. The neighborhood didn’t support them in any way. So, that’s what it’s about. I think that’s what makes it universal.…
A great success this festival or rather these festivals which have just ended. Arles central power is over and has given way to multiple places of creative and inventive power very concerned to stand out from the current direction! Luma, one day we will have to thank loud and clear Maja Hoffmann without whom this revolution could never have existed, the Musée Réattu. Actes Sud, agnès b., Chateau Lacoste ...............!…
I was like them. With these four words, Tom Wood tells us a lot about what binds him to those he has photographed in the streets of Liverpool since the 1970s, for more than thirty years. Trained in painting, he first used photography to reproduce his paintings, then very quickly for livelihood in the service of a wedding photographer. Of the click that made him put away the brushes and…
There is no single female gaze. When women look at women, the gazes are as varied as the personalities of the photographers and their models - anyone visiting Johanna Breede's gallery this summer can see this for themselves. We encounter tender glances and encouraging ones, those that look cautiously behind façades and those that are thrown at a person as if casually catching a glimpse. On the gallery walls in…
The Pavillon Populaire presents the first major exhibition in France of the work of Catalan photographer Antoni Campañà i Bandranas (Arbúcies, 1906 - Sant Cugat del Vallès, 1989) devoted to the Spanish Civil War. Hidden and unpublished for 80 years (until the discovery, four years ago, of his famous "red box", containing 5,000 photographs he took during the three years of the Spanish Civil War), his work shows the complexity…
“I will love you down the streets of the world,” as Marco Pesaresi wrote in his diary. Having lived and explored at length, then he returned so he could make us live on the streets of his place in the world, the one that was more intimate and personal, more exuberant and tender, the one of his native land. Thanks to the donation of the archive by his family to…
