Photo Elysée recently paid tribute to Deborah Turbeville, an American photographer recognised in the 1970s for her fashion photographs. But Turbeville is much more than that; it is a work on photography and its materiality. In collaboration with the MUUS collection, Photo Elysée allows us to discover a true female artist. It's challenging to classify Deborah Turbeville's (1932-2013) work because her oeuvre is rich in research and diverse use of…

The Nazis killed so…

The Parisian gallery Eric Dupont presents Le Point Aveugle, Jacqueline Salmon's latest exhibition. Attached to the figure of Christ, the perizonium is a veil of modesty elevated to the rank of a relic. Its imagery has been codified by theology, influenced by civil fashion or invented from scratch by artists, who have delivered endless variations on the way of draping it. It is therefore a formidable marker of the evolution…

The editors of this new book about street photography characterize the practitioners of their subject matter in hipster idioms – ‘the slicers and dicers of the flow of reality, recidivist shoot-and-scram merchants’ – picturing them as foot-loose voyeurs who get their kicks from capturing the uncanny, the incongruous, the sorrowful and the surreal. Defining the territory in such catchy and catholic terms gives them carte blanche for their selection of…
