There are various ways of organising photography archives: alphabetically, thematically, or date of capture. Not so at the Archive of Modern Conflict in Holland Park in London. The 8 million plus images (and there could be many more) are filed according to the date of acquisition, with the archive function- ing almost as a diary, a library of the imagination in the Borgesian sense, or Situationist drifts. Of all the…

Thierry Maindrault's Monthly Chronicle The doors of Paris Photo, vintage 2022, have just closed. With my accreditation: “press” in hand, I was able to access the so-called VIP day on Wednesday. Incidentally, it should be noted that the “Very Very VIPs” had already been invited the day before by a very great American international bank, which was - this year - the leader of the sponsors for this shining event.…
On the occasion of the Rencontres d'Arles, the Fisheye gallery presents Delphine Diallo's new series, Golden Age, produced in collaboration with WhiteWall. Mixing photographs and collages, the exhibition is an invitation into the universe of this protean artist. The Golden Age series originated with a proposal: the wish of a great lover of African art to create a work from his own collection. Among the 3,000 artifacts that make up…

H/AND is a story of hands, a story of encounters. The outstretched hand, touching and touched, at the center of all communications. It is arguably one of the oldest symbols used by mankind. H/AND is a gallery of portraits made to the rhythm of exceptional encounters. Intimate portraits, images, imprints where everyone stages their own hands under the lights, often for the first time, and thus take the time and…
The chalet, a luxurious and romantic remote mountain hut that exists in “splendid isolation” in a sunny winter landscape — this is one of the most popular cliché images of Switzerland. However, the actual meaning of the term “chalet”, derived from the Latin word cala: “protected place”, is simply that of an Alpine dairy hut or shelter. On his many trips through his adopted home, Patrick Lambertz has run into…
Renée Jacobs : A free woman A former American lawyer specializing in civil rights and constitutional litigation, Renée Jacobs is now well known for her nude photographs of women - her favorite subject - and is thus fulfilling a childhood dream. Atypical in her approach, her reconversion quickly earned her the International Photography Award (IPA) in 2008. While working as a photojournalist for The New York Times and the Philadelphia…

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, one…
This is the eigthteenth dialogue in the Ettore Molinario Collection. A dialogue from which my passion for photography derives and so my constant reliance on images with the purpose to continue a long and profound investigation of myself. Analyst’s couch and a wounded face, as if to say here’s the body of pain and the method to understand it. And the cure, as the magnificent authors Sarah Jones and Sanne Sannes…
For The Eye of Photography, photographic books are as important as an exhibition or a portfolio. They make the history and the actuality of the medium. Our correspondent Zoé Isle de Beauchaine has a tirelessly curious and informed look at the latest releases. With Our Daily Bread, September Books and Lalie Thébault Maviel publish a singular encyclopedia devoted to the history of bread, its presence in our lives and its…

Into a transfiguration Photography is pure falsehood. The rectangle dissects reality, captures a part of it, and this part is the false, part of the total true. In these images I have chosen parts of reality. No computer tricks. Only what at certain moments the world can offer to the ruthless gaze of the artist. Davide Gualtieri was born in Rome in 1973 where he lives and works. He started…
It feels like I’ve known the work of Andreas H. Bitesnich all my life. At least during the time, I have dealt with photography ever since I began building up my photographic horizon in the late 1990s. Every magazine that featured “hot & sexy” photography sooner or later published Bitesnich's sensual, sculptural, flawless bodyscapes. For me he was the German version of Herb Ritts, and through his (and others’) works,…
The Musée des Beaux-Arts de Libourne presents an exhibition dedicated to the man who is considered the father of modern photography: Eugène Atget (1857-1927). His work is now kept in prestigious institutions in Paris and New York, but we know too little that this character is from Libourne, where his birthplace is still visible. This will therefore be an opportunity to return to the career of this atypical photographer whose…

Joan Archibald left her Long Island home and family in 1966, and ran away to the West Coast to reinvent herself as Kali and take up photography at the College of the Desert in Palm Springs. After…
The Spanish photographer Carlos Pérez Siquier (1930-2021) is one of the leading figures of photographic modernism.

In cooperation with the Fundacíon MAPFRE, Fotografie Forum Frankfurt (FFF) presents a retrospective of his most important series from 1957 to 2018. The now legendary series La Chanca, begun in 1956, already conveys…
