| | "Painting Course for Wealthy Pensioners", Arizona 1962
© Max Scheler | | | | | | | | | | | | | 21 June – 16 September 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | The year is in full swing, people are drawn to the meadows and beaches, the leaves dress the trees in rich green. And even if we can't see them in black-and-white photographs, the bright colors of summer can still be glimpsed. In any case, Johanna Breede, with her skilful sense of image selection and composition, once again knows how to make colors shine that are not there at first glance.
In the monochrome photographs of Jens Knigge or Marek Pozniak, for example, we intuitively believe we recognize a luminous garden green. Even the exuberant beach days in glistening bright light, as captured by Robert Lebeck or Hannes Kilian in "Sweet Sixties," carry the bright colors of summer beneath the grayscale of the prints. In any case, it is the beaches of this world in particular that we immediately associate with the hottest of all seasons. At the beginning of the 1990s, Swiss photographer Beat Presser captured the joy of life of a girl on the coast of Madagascar in a square. Just a few years earlier, in 1988, U.S. photographer Sheila Rock portrayed a young man in a hat, jacket and charismatic, shy expression in front of the vast ocean panorama of Malibu Beach for Tempo magazine. And then there is Stefan Moses with his black-and-white photograph "Lady with Borzoi," taken in 1976 on the island of Elba. In its humanization, the back view of woman and dog is reminiscent of the humorous photographs of an Elliott Erwitt.
In any case, humor is a not insignificant component of the summer exhibition. We encounter it in the picture "Painting Course for Wealthy Retired Women," and the title could not be more tellin… | | |

Collection of the Kunstbibliothek | | | | | | | | ... until 28 August 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Candida Höfer explores built spaces in her photography. Her world-famous interiors focus on libraries, museums, restaurants, theaters, and other public spaces, allowing us to experience architecture in a new way. In comparison with photographic interiors from the Kunstbibliothek's Photography Collection, which is over 150 years old, a dialogue develops between applied photography and artistic work.
With approximately 90 works, the exhibition at Berlin's Museum für Fotografie opens up a broad cross-section of Candida Höfer's photographs from 1980 to the immediate present. The long tradition of her architectural photographs, however, also extends deep into the classical canon of this field of work. In dialogue with pendants and counter-images from the Kunstbibliothek's Photography Collection, Höfer's particular approach to her pictorial motifs is revealed in a particularly impressive way.
Spaces with communicative functions are paradoxically shown without the people frequenting them: Candida Höfer demonstrates the qualities or deficiencies of the spaces that enable human exchange in terms of the architecture itself, in terms of the atmosphere she specifically captures in each case, in terms of the perspective and the framing she chooses. She does not focus on the thematic groups serially; the respective locations determine the image format as well as the size of the prints. Yet the compilation of the groups offers a variety of possibilities for comparison that impressively confirm the photographer's longstanding and sustained interest in the specific locations.
Some thematic groups exemplify the visually stimulating dialogue of the images: Facades, windows and doors open and close the … | | |

Man (which is his nickname), 2019
from the series South County, AL (a Hale County), 2012-present
© RaMell Ross | | | | | | | 8th Triennal of Photography Hamburg 2022 | | | | | | | | ... until 14 August 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | The exhibition CURRENCY: PHOTOGRAPHY BEYOND CAPTURE at Deichtorhallen Hamburg explores conceptual engagements with photography in the "retinal age". In our accelerated era of circulation and instrumentation, images not only act as records of events and imprints of experience but also fundamentally shape acts of seeing and being seen. Approaching photographs as contextual frames for narrative invention, the exhibition critically considers how knowledge has been sought through the photographic apparatus over the course of its history and reimagined by artists and photographers through conceptual and poetic approaches to the medium. CURRENCY looks at how these practitioners have challenged the meaning and value of photographic images and investigated the extended lives, temporalities, and materialities of image cultures beyond the moment of capture.
The exhibition weaves experimental modes of appearance, multisensory evocation, and archival and documentary practice as novel possibilities and vocabularies for seeing and interpreting. In staging works by twenty-nine artists and photographers, the exhibition draws connections across geographies and eras, tracing intergenerational and transnational affinities through several motifs: the deconstruction and transformation of photographic canons; countermapping in the Anthropocene across landscapes of extractive capitalism, military occupation, and appropriation; tenderness as a relational framework for photography; and material explorations into the medium’s alchemical processes. These motifs structure CURRENCY and offer through lines across a range of perspectives. | | |

| | Kourtney Roy
Lady Deauville
© Kourtney Roy | | | | | | | | ... until 15 September 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Who is Kourtney Roy? By turns rebel woman, fatal beauty or overworked housewife, the photographer plays with stereotypes and enjoys taking on different roles to blur the lines in her colourful self-portraits.
Born in Ontario, Canada, her father was a cowboy... it is not surprising that she conceives the world as a vast movie set ready to welcome her fantasy. Urban landscapes or desert expanses become a set waiting for the artist’s entrance.
Quite an artist... Able to take on all the jobs : from the storyboard she imagines to the styling, including framing, lighting, make-up, directing actors... Kourtney Roy is definitely a jack-of-all-trades.
If the idea of posing in front of the camera while transforming herself is not new - some compare her to Cindy Sherman - few photographers manage to achieve such a degree of perfection in the staging. Without forgetting what makes her work so special, the humour that is always present in her creations.
The exhibition Queen of Nowhere presented at the Galerie Esther Woerdehoff cleverly reminds us of this by mixing several series made over a decade. Enter as fiction, my favourite, which I chose to exhibit at the Festival du Regard in Cergy-Pontoise as part of the "Intime and Autofiction" theme, but also Sorry, No Vacancy and the one that was the subject of her latest book The Tourist, undoubtedly the most mature...
Did her transition to the fortyish got the better of the enfant terrible? On the contrary, here she is, more glamorous than ever, accompanied by handsome men with bulging muscles; Sue Ellen, not yet decadent but already a great lover of cocktails, abandoning the atmosphere of film noir for technicolor blockbusters. As you can… | | |

Tickets: here | | | | | | | | | | | | | From its inaugural edition in 2015, photo basel has cemented its profile as the most prominent photography fair in the German-speaking region. Bringing together galleries from around the world, the fair fosters a dialogue between members of the photographic and broader art world communities, attracting collectors, visual art experts and international media at a key moment in the annual art world calendar (Art Basel week).
photo basel welcomes around 40 international exhibitors - coming from 18 countries. Over 550 photographic positions by 130 artists will be exhibited.
As for the 7th edition, photo basel welcomes Sonia Voss as Artistic Director. Sonia is an author and curator. Her exhibitions include Isabelle Le Minh: Cristal réel. After Alfred Ehrhardt (Goethe Institut Paris & Alfred Ehrhardt Foundation Berlin, 2019-20); Restless Bodies: East-German Photography 1980-89 (Rencontres d’Arles, 2019), Louis Roederer Discovery Award 2021 (Rencontres d’Arles, 2021) and two exhibitions at the Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature in Paris: Sophie Calle, Serena Carone: Beau doublé, Monsieur le marquis! (2017–18) and George Shiras: In the Heart of the Dark Night (2016–17). In addition, Sonia is the editor of publications at Éditions Xavier Barral, Koenig Books, Filigranes, and Kehrer. | | | Homage Anita Neugebauer Anita Neugebauer (1916 – 2012) founded her gallery photo art basel in 1976 – and was one of the first if not the first art gallery with the sole focus on fine art photography. | | | African Photography As in previous years, photo basel will again focus on photography based art from the African continent and its diaspora. Melanie Issaka, born in Ghana in 1994 and a graduate of the Royal College of Art in London, is showing her first solo show at a fair. Her Blueprints: performative self-portraits in the form of cyanotypes that explore the position of the black woman's body in the history of photography and its techniques (Galerie Peter Sillem, Frankfurt, Germany). The Burkinabe Saïdou Dicko returns with a selection of his works from the series The Shadowed People. The motif of the shadow, the artist's main source of inspiration, is both a metaphorical and a political symbol. (Artco Gallery, Aachen, Berlin and Cape Town). | | | Concrete Photography Concrete photography refers to an aesthetic movement and an approach that focuses on the photographic process and all of its components - the light, the camera, the paper or surface and the phenomena that creates the image. | | |

Kenneth Noland und Stephanie Gordon, New York 1966
22,3 x 20 cm
Startpreis: 9.000 € / Schätzpreis: 16.000–18.000 € | | | Ostlicht Photo Auction | | | Wednesday, 15 June 2022, 6pm
Nobuyoshi Araki » Diane Arbus » Anton Giuglio Bragaglia » René Burri » Edward S. Curtis » František Drtikol » Ernst Haas » Thomas Hoepker » David LaChapelle » Arnulf Rainer » August Sander » Rudolf Schwarzkogler » Anton Josef Trčka » ... | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The program of the upcoming OstLicht Photo Auction already caused a stir in advance. "I am delighted that my team and I have succeeded in putting together a particularly exciting mix of exclusive classics and numerous photographic surprises," says gallery owner Peter Coeln. "I'm sure we can expect particularly lively bidding wars with this offering."
Among the undoubtedly most coveted lots in what is already the 25th photo auction led by Peter Coeln is an image that is inscribed into humanity's collective memory like few others. For many, it is René Burri's best picture – even though the 1963 portrait of the self-confident, cigar-smoking Cuban revolutionary leader Che Guevara initially appeared only small and heavily cropped in the original Look magazine reportage. It would probably have gathered dust in the Magnum archives if the proponents of the 1968 movement had not rediscovered it and stylized it as the “Che icon”. As a result, the image was reproduced millions of times. When Burri returned to Cuba in 1968, he found his masterpiece printed everywhere on T-shirts – some of which he eventually bought for his children. Today, prints signed and dated by the photographer himself are extremely rare. This perfectly preserved gelatin silver print of "Che Guevara y su tabaco" from the 1990s is offered with a starting price of 6,000 euros (estimate: €10,000 - 12,000).
An equally famous icon was created by Thomas Hoepker in 1966 for a reportage in German magazine Stern about the most legendary boxer of all time. "Muhammad Ali's Punch" was taken during a visit by the first German Magnum photographer to Ali's training camp in Chicago. When the champion spotted him, he climbed out of the ring and, unexpectedly, fired a quick right-left-right combination right in front of Hoepker's lens. Hoepker managed to get a single sharp and properly exposed shot – one that many still consider the best picture of Muhammad Ali ever taken. The vintage print, printed and signed by the photographer himself, is the only one from his private collection. On the back he noted, "Muhammad Ali demonstrating his punch, which had the same power as a 3 ton blow." This exceptional collector's item is auctioned with a starting price of 8,000 euros (estimate: €16,000 - 18,000).
In addition to these two classics, a contemporary work by the exceptional Austrian artist Arnulf Rainer is expected to be met with lively interest. Rainer with his overpaintings created a congenial combination of photography and gestural painting from the 1950s onwards. Today, his works, which were often controversial in the beginning, are enjoying increasing popularity on the international art market and have repeatedly generated top results at auctions.The offered photograph of the "Totenmaske der Schriftstellerin Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach" from 1978 has been reworked by Rainer several times, who photographically documented each phase of this creative process. The picture was conspicuously signed by the artist (estimate: € 14,000 - 16,000). | | |

| | | 1st A Singular Gaze Ferran Artigas Collection | 2nd Josep Salvany, Photographs 1911-1926 | 3rd Works and art documents |
| | | Art & Photographs | | | | | | | Auction: Tuesday, 21 June, 2022, 7pm | | | | Viewing: Monday 20 & Tuesday 21 June 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Juan Naranjo Galería de Arte & Documentos will be holding an auction on 21 June at 7pm, divided into three sessions, featuring works and documents produced between the 19th century and the present day. A good number of the lots that constitutes the auction belong to two important figures linked to the artistic avant-garde in Spain: Joaquim Gomis and Eduardo Westerdahl and a good part of the photographs belong to Ferran Artigas, a collector of photography who started in the 1980s, a period in which photography was beginning to be institutionalised.
1st Session: A Singular Gaze Ferran Artigas Collection A Singular Gaze is made up of 49 lots by different photographers such as Tomás Monserrat | Ernest James Bellocq | Raoul Hausmann | Agustí Centelles | David Seymour | Nicolás Muller | Josep Sala | Mariano Zuzunaga | Antonio Tabernero | Francesc Català-Roca | Leopoldo Pomés | Bernard Plossu | Keiichi Tahara | Kineo Kuwabara | Isabel Muñoz | Max Pam | Ferdinando Scianna | Philippe Koudjina | Malick Sidibé | Tidiani Shitou | Youssouf Sogodogo | Alioune Bâ | Pablo Ortiz Monasterio | Cristóbal Hara | Ramón Masats | Fernando Herráez | Koldo Chamorro | Gabriel Cualladó | Elliott Erwitt | Jean Loup-Sief | Daido Moriyama | Joaquim Puigvert ...
The collector Ferran Artigas, over more than four decades, has made an interesting photographic production as an "amateur" and this fact has been very present in his way of collecting, in which he has developed a personal and singular line. He began his collection at a seminal moment in photographic collecting. His case is a good example of how collecting can become something creative.
2nd Session: Josep Salvany, Photographs 1911-1926 Josep Salvany developed an interesting and extensive photographic production. Part of his archive is kept at the Biblioteca de Catalunya, an institution that began the process of recovering his production and his figure, dedicating to him, in 1992, an exhibition and a catalogue entitled Josep Salvany i Blanch, fotografies, 1910-1926.
The archive on offer comprises more than 1900 photographs on glass plates, taken between 1911-1926 by Josep Salvany, including an important set of autochrome plates.
3rd Session: Works and art documents This is a sale of works and documents produced between the 19th century and the present day. A good number of lots belonged to Joaquim Gomis and Eduardo Westerdahl. The auction is composed by national and international artists, including: William Kilburn | Gaspar Sensi | Andreas Groll | José María Sert | Isidre Nonell | Joaquim Sunyer | Joan Miró | Kurt Hielscher | Sham Shere | Enrique Aznar | Martín Chambi | Manuel Álvarez Bravo | Óscar Domínguez | Valentine Hugo | Ramón Batlles | Antonio Gálvez | Constantino Arias | Francesc Català-Roca | Eudald Serra | Andreas Feinninger | Claudio Pérez | Álvaro Hoppe | Humberto Rivas | Jaume Plensa | Chema Madoz | Eugènia Balcells | Julia Spínola | Evru | Carmen Calvo | Kasper Kovitz | Hannah Collins,... | | |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | On June 27 and 28, Artcurial will pay tribute to the photographic work of Dora Maar through 750 unpublished and intimate photographs.
Gathered in 356 lots, these photographs illustrate the artist’s years with Pablo Picasso, reflecting her strong taste for surrealism and the avant-garde, but also for portraits and street scenes with a social character.
Through this exceptional photographic treasure from the estate of Dora Maar and exhibited to the public for the very first ffirst time, the artist appears as one of the most original photographers of her time, a true pioneer of the mid-20th century. | | |

e.delecotais@yahoo.fr | +33 (0)6 46 25 73 81 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Christophe Joron-Derem is pleased to announce a sale entitled "Man Ray and his contemporaries" at the Hôtel DROUOT on Tuesday 28 and Wednesday 29 June, 2022.
Approximately 200 original works will be displayed from the collection of Edmonde and Lucien Treillard, Man Ray's primary assistant.
Lucien Treillard, who was a professor of literature, met Man Ray in 1960 on the occasion of the realization of two prints for the editor Georges Visat. The two men developed a real affinity for one another and continued to work together, Man Ray relying entirely on his faithful companion for the promotion of his work, until the end of his life in 1976. Juliet, his last wife, maintained this collaboration until her own death in 1991.
The collection offered for sale today, belonging to Mrs. Edmonde Treillard, Lucien's widow, is the result of forty years of work, research and collecting from friends and contemporaries of Man Ray.
The sale presents a characteristic collection of Man Ray's work: vintage prints and original contact sheets, objects, drawings, glass plates, prints and portfolios, as well as some rare large prints made in 1960 for PHOTOKINA. Three exceptional unpublished versions of Le Violon d'Ingres will also be exhibited.
The collection is completed by rare works of Berenice Abbott and Jacques-André Boiffard - former assistants of Man Ray, Raoul Hausmann, Brassaï and Henri Cartier-Bresson, collected by Lucien very early on. | | |

The largest outdoor photography festival in Europe will take place
from 9 June until 16 October 2022.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | DUE NORTH is an opportunity to highlight the often little-known creative power of artists from Northern Europe who, since the dawn of photography, have maintained an almost carnal connection with the ruggedness of their homeland. For the inhabitants of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden, solitude and wild nature are integral to their relationship with the world. They do not exploit the fruits of nature blindly, but try to understand how everything works and observe it with a caring eye. Their knowledge and constant desire to learn more about flora and fauna lead them to be very committed to respecting nature.
It is no wonder that the countries of the North, with their outrageous economic health, are among the most pleasant nations to live. Regularly crippled by frost and cold and accustomed to the great outdoors, they have developed a centuries-old tradition of political consensus, rejection of conflict and social development based on strict conservation of natural resources. In Copenhagen, 40% of the inhabitants cycle to work, in Stockholm the buses run on bioethanol, and in Reykjavik geothermal energy is now commonplace. Some will see the legacy of Lutheranism, others the more distant traces of the Viking tradition. You can't survive in the far north without a certain willingness to adapt. In countries where warmth and light are vital six months out of twelve, the environment is a crucial challenge. So it is understandable that Swedish teenager Greta Thunberg has become the new face of climate change for the world's youth: she knows that melting glaciers and sea ice are not far from home and that it is not a boreal illusion. If your culture is threatened by the effects of global warming, it is your duty to alert the public.

Featuring over 50 exhibitions and a wide range of accompanying events, the participating Düsseldorf art institutions, galleries and fringe venues collectively offer an insight into the issues and debates current within the world of photography and time-based media.
The keynote exhibition, Think We Must, curated by Pola Sieverding and Asya Yaghmurian opens on 12 May at the Akademie Galerie on Burgplatz and plays a pivotal role thematically within the Biennale. Featuring works by Frida Orupabo, Walid Raad, Hito Steyerl, David Wojnarowicz and others, the exhibition examines how reality, history and a dispositional analysis of society can be constituted and altered when thought is based around photographic images.
The Biennale will be accompanied throughout its run by a comprehensive programme of panel discussions, talks and workshops, including a roundtable debate, with discussants Vivien Trommer, Akinbode Akinbiyi, Aino Laberenz and Max Jorge Hinderer Cruz, on 14 May at K21 at the Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen on curating and art education as a means of interrogating power.
The Julia Stoschek Collection places a spotlight on the work of the Turner Prize-winner, Laure Prouvost, with screenings interrogating the intimate relationship between language, image and perception. At Düsseldorf University, Professor Mareike Foecking’s students investigate how artistic production can make a contribution to societal knowledge and the nature of the framework of rules within … | | |

Courtesy of the artist | | | | | | | 12 Exhibitions on "CURRENCY" | | | | | | | | EXHIBITIONS until SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | With twelve exhibitions starting from May 20, 2022, the 8th Triennial of Photography Hamburg will engage the theme of "Currency" from multiple angles and perspectives. From colonial-era photo albums to visual reveries, social documentary and conceptual approaches to photography, the exhibitions explore the polyphonic ways in which photographs are produced, circulated and interpreted. The exhibition parcours through Hamburg was conceived by artistic director Koyo Kouoh and her international team, alongside the curators of the ten participating museums and exhibition venues in Hamburg. The exhibitions will be accompanied by numerous events and a festival lasting several days in June 2022.
At the Hall for Contemporary Art of the Deichtorhallen Hamburg, Koyo Kouoh, Rasha Salti, Gabriella Beckhurst Feijoo and Oluremi C. Onabanjo examine the "retinal age", in which images fundamentally shape acts of seeing and being seen. The exhibition Currency: Photography Beyond Capture weaves experimental modes of portrayal, documentary and multisensory evocation, as entry points into reimagining how knowledge is sought and constructed through the photographic medium.
Two of the triennial’s exhibitions are devoted to photographer Herbert List » The Magic Eye at the Bucerius Kunst Forum presents the first international survey exhibition of his work in more than two decades. The retrospective spans his career from surrealist works to his visions of life in antiquity and extensive pictorial reports of non-European cultures, all the way to the male nudes with which List avowed his own homosexuality. | | |
