Over 50 years since its release, and in spite of the unforeseeable extent of technological advancement, the questions Kubrick’s masterpiece first kicked up remain pertinent. The aesthetic world he constructed, meanwhile, is reflected back in today’s data centres, international space programmes and self-driving cars. To what extent, then, might the foresight and futuristic visual languages of imaginative artists have shaped subsequent innovations in design and technology? | | |

He has long been one of Sweden’s leading photographers, and was among the first to work with conceptual photography. He made his debut in 1973, but his real breakthrough came a decade later with the exhibition Rost (Rust) at Fotografiska Museet (now part of the Moderna Museet in Stockholm). | | |

| | CIG HARVEY
The Compost Heap (2020)
Archival Pigment Print 30” x 40” in.
Limited Edition of 7
© Cig Harvey, Courtesy Robert Klein Gallery | | | | | | | | ... until 17 December 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Robert Klein Gallery is pleased to present EAT FLOWERS, a solo exhibition by renowned New England-based photographer Cig Harvey, showcasing a selection of her latest photographs from her recent monograph Blue Violet. This will be Cig Harvey’s fifth solo exhibition at Robert Klein Gallery.
Cig Harvey’s photographs in Blue Violet are a celebration of the natural world and the senses. With her magical use of color and wonder found in everyday life Harvey says, “I want my photographs to be sensory, like edible flowers, a visual taste. Color and flowers act as symbol and metaphor to access our senses.” One of the most extraordinary color photographers working today, Cig Harvey’s Blue Violet is a meditation on the procession of the seasons and sensory abundance. Plants, flowers, and our experience of the natural world are the threads that tie this unique body of work together. Exploring the five senses, Blue Violet takes the reader on a personal journey through nature and the range of human emotions.
Throughout her twenty-five-year career, Harvey’s work “has always incited a jolt, eliciting a reflexive gasp of awe, triggered by memory and emotion,” writes Jacoba Urist in the book’s afterword. “In this regard, Blue Violet is no exception,” she continues, “and readers may be forgiven for assuming this, her fourth monograph, is about botanicals.” Yet further viewing of the works reveals that Harvey’s photographs “despite being of flora, are about something else: something deeper and less tangible, more saddening and celebratory, something all-encompassing and inescapable, like color. | | |

Co-produced by the Centre national de l'audiovisuel (CNA), this new edition focuses on the diversity of photographic creation in Luxembourg. | | | Marie Capesius » Heliopolis (2017-2019)

Jeanine Unsen » I love you baby. Portraits de femmes résilientes (2016-2018) | | | | ... until 9 October 2023 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Various photographic installations throughout the city of Clervaux transform it into an open-air gallery. Discover the work of national and international contemporary photographers in an extraordinary setting: on the walls of houses, in flowering gardens and along the narrow streets.
Six different visions invite us on a journey, each uniquely opening up a world that unfolds in photography and lingers in our imagination. A play of momentary dialogues strikes up between the images, their open air exhibition setting – as it changes with the seasons - and the viewer that contemplates them. The photographers transform the image of the city and the gaze we bring to bear upon it by way of reflections from elsewhere.
The 2022-2023 photographic season celebrates the diversity of Luxembourg creation through the work of six contemporary photographers. On the market square, we set out with Bruno Oliveira to Cap Vert, via a documentary collection shot through with personal sensations, while along the rise to the church, Véronique Kolber presents a series of American street scenes, captured through her lens, that resonate in our cinematographic memory. Behind the church, Marie Capesius, by way of calm and sensual images, explores the question of paradise and the contrasts between the two worlds that co-exist on the Ile du Levant. Inspired by the methods of archaeology, Boris Loder collects objects, examines them, and thus condenses the identities of the City of Luxembourg’s various neighbourhoods and their stereotypes into sculptural photographs that can be seen in the arcades of Grand- Rue.
On the Castle concourse, we are greeted by Marc Schroeder’s black and white minimalist photographs capturing urban landscapes which seem to follow a strict graphic logic. While in the Castle gardens, the women portrayed by Jeannine Unsen share with us a moment that is both intimate and intense. Thus, by way of these encounters, different paths, readings and connections interweave to keep us questioning. | | |

The project is being premiered at a special one-off outdoor projection screening event in Meeting House Square. An exhibition featuring selected photographs from the project is on show in Photo Museum Ireland’s Artists’ Project Space from 3rd–30th November 2022.

| | Melanie Issaka
Contact 7 and Contact 5, from "Locating the Personal"
Color photogram, 2022; ca. 180 x 120 cm; unique piece | | | | | | | | 5 November — 17 December 2022 | | | Opening reception: Friday, 4 November, 6—8 pm
Melanie Issaka will be present. | | | | | | | | | | | | | For the first time we present in a solo exhibition the two series Locating the Personal and Blueprint: Black Skin White Mask by the Ghanaian-British artist Melanie Issaka.
Melanie Issaka likes to work with cameraless photography. Using life-size color photograms, she imprints her own body into the photographic material. By exploring the spaces she simultaneously creates and occupies, and engaging with the materiality of her hair and body, Melanie Issaka produces images that blur the boundaries between the self and the other.
Working with cyanotypes in her Blueprint series, she presents her body as a white void shape, thus examining issues of simultaneous presence and absence, hyper-visibility and invisibility, and the representation of the Black female body in the history of art and photography.
"For too long the camera has aimed to 'capture' Blackness, to jar it shut, and trap it within chemicals and paper, to be used however the white eye deems fit. The perceived Black body rarely gets to rest, lie down, and simply exist. Issaka rejects this “violent” photography, replacing it with her own Black psychogeography. In her images, Blackness does whatever Blackness wants." Isaac Huxtable in his catalogue essay
Melanie Issaka (b. 1994, Ghana) is a visual artist and freelance photographer living and working in London, UK. She graduated from The Royal College of Art with a Photography MA, having previously studied Graphic Design BA at The University of Brighton.
Melanie aims to develop a social practice concerned with documentation, representation and archiving with reference to the intersectionality of Race and Gender, as well as exploring the materiality of print and lens-based media… | | |

| | Catherine Henriette
Les baigneurs 1, 2014
From the series "Conte d'été"
66 x 99 cm
Edition of 5 | | | | | | | | ... until 12 November 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Catherine Henriette’s works are autonomous universes in which the theatre of humans is played out in miniature.
With distance, the artist depicts a disproportionate world in which our reference points are lost, the sky and the earth, the infinitely large and small merge. This setting is inhabited by characters prey to the sublime of their present.
In her work, composed as a tale, the artist questions our relationship to space and to our collective individuality.
Fascinatingly precise, the artist’s photographs are invitations to contemplation and introspection. Newly represented by the gallery, Catherine Henriette’s work has been awarded the Prix of the Académie des Beaux-arts. | | |

| | | DOKU – Binary conflicts invert illusions, 2022. Production image. Cover design for King Kong magazine, issue 13 SS22. Courtesy the artist. | | | | | | | | ... until 12 February 2023 | | | | | | | | | | | | | This year's annual commission is a major new solo exhibition by the highly acclaimed Chinese multi-media artist LuYang . The exhibition will feature the world premiere of a new Zabludowicz Collection commission, alongside multiple immersive moving image installations, an interactive arcade gaming space, and a screening room presenting the ‘greatest hits’ of the artist’s videos from across the last decade. Visitors will be invited to step into the worlds LuYang creates.
LuYang’s work destabilises the divisions between past and future, human and machine, and life and death, reflected in the title of the exhibition, which incorporates the Sanskrit expression ‘Neti Neti’, meaning “not this, not that”, or “neither this, nor that”. Immersed in the cultures of anime, video games and sci-fi, the artist’s wildly engaging and darkly humorous projects are all-consuming in their visual and sonic intensity. They combine aspects of traditional spiritual belief with motifs from science and medicine to investigate the mysteries and mechanics of the human body and mind.
The exhibition will centre on DOKU, LuYang’s own digital avatar. Using advanced motion capture and CGI animation technology, DOKU combines ancient ideas of reincarnation with a contemporary exploration of the multiplicity of the self. LuYang has created six versions of the DOKU avatar to date, corresponding to the six paths of reincarnation as described in Buddhism. The movements assigned to these characters … | | |

| | | Self-portrait from the Shelton Hotel Looking East, 2005 © Arno Rafael Minkkinen | | | | | | | | ... until 27 November 2022 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Finnish born Arno Rafael Minkkinen became a writer and photographer in America before becoming a teacher in Fin- land. Like a triplestranded coil of climbing rope, Minkkinen has interweaved his three pursuits continuously into his life as a Finnish American artist, essayist/curator, and educator for more than five decades now. After obtaining a Bachelor of Arts degree in English from Wagner College, Minkkinen launched into a career as a Madison Avenue copywriter. A headline he wrote for Minolta cameras (What happens inside your mind can happen inside a camera) persuaded him to take up photography at Rhode Island School of Design where he earned a Master of Fine Arts degree studying there from 1972 to 1974 with Harry Callahan and Aaron Siskind. With double two-year stints (the mid-1970s and mid- 1980s) teaching at Helsinki’s University of Industrial Arts (Aalto University today) and four years as assistant professor at MIT, Minkkinen served 28-years as a tenured Professor of Art at the University of Massachusetts in Lowell where he holds a Nancy Donahue Emeritus Professorship today. Along with a ten-year parttime teaching stint at Vevey’s École d’Arts Appliqués in Switzerland, Minkkinen also serves as a docent at Aalto University in Helsinki.
Major monographs include Frostbite (Morgan & Morgan, 1978); Waterline (Marval, Aperture, and Otava, 1995 (Grand Prix du Livre, 25th Rencontres d’Arles); Body Land (Motta, Nathan, and Smithsonian Institution Press, 1997); SAGA: The Journey of Arno Rafael Minkkinen: Thirty-Five Years of Photographs (Chronicle Books, 2005); Homework: The Finnish Photographs, 1973 to 2008; Balanced Equation (Lodima Press, 2010); and Minkkinen (Kehrer Verlag, winner of th… | | |

| | | © Artist Giulia Grillo aka Petite Doll – The Untitled Space | | | | | | | | 4 – 19 November 2022 | | | | Opening: Friday 4 November 6:00 pm | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Untitled Space is pleased to present the debut U.S. solo exhibition of Italian photographic artist Giulia Grillo aka Petite Doll, opening on November 4th and on view through November 19th, 2022. Curated by Indira Cesarine, the self-titled exhibition showcases a range of artworks that highlight the artist’s surreal performance-based photography. A number of works from Grillo’s ongoing series The Crab Girl will premiere in the exhibition, as well as a selection from her latest mixed-media project, In the Name of Perpetual Connection.
The unconventional intricacies that characterize a Petite Doll image, whether still photograph or video, reflect a contemplation of the familiar, which Grillo warps and expands into fully-realized characters that forgo traditional beauty standards in favor of the bizarre. Petite Doll seeks to take photography out of its conventional, comfortable, and objective role, manifesting and distorting intricate concepts in her work, from the unsettling to the cute, holding a mirror to contemporary society and its underlying fears and desires. Using a wide array of symbolic objects, from elaborate sculptures to everyday objects, she transforms herself into distinct characters. Her sculptural molds made of polymer clay, SFX prosthetics, resin, and plaster, along with her distinctive makeup, costumes, and sets that she creates herself, build a bridge between the physical and digital worlds. Each carefully crafted scene she presents puts her preference for practical effects over digital manipulation on full display, often including intricate prosthetics to manifest darkly fantastical worlds that are nothing short of cinematic in their scale. Featuring photographs, videos, and behind-the-scenes archives spanning her arti… | | |

| | | Alec Soth, Untitled 26 from Dog-Days, Bogotá © Alec Soth, Magnum Photos | | | L'APPARTEMENT SESSION 4 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | EXHIBITIONS until 13 November 2022 | | | | For its fourth exhibition session, L’Appartement – Espace Images Vevey presents four artists whose reflections echo domestic space, living together and intimacy. | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Dutch photographer Bertien van Manen created her Give Me Your Image series while travelling across Europe between 2002 and 2005. At each stage of her journey, while staying with friends or strangers she photographed their souvenir snapshots displayed amid everyday objects. These small pictures, as commonplace as they are moving, plunged the artist into the heart and soul of each home. With Give Me Your Image, van Manen creates a clever mise en abyme that evokes the time when L’Appartement – Espace Images Vevey was a family home.
In 2013, Gillian Wearing, a major figure in British contemporary art, started creating an open submissions participative project by inviting people around the world to film a short clip of the view from a window in their homes. From the United States to Saudi Arabia, Greece and India, Your Views shows a succession of curtains and blinds opening onto commonplace yet varied scenes. Both unique and universal, these views reveal a part of the participants’ private lives. Screened in Le Cinéma of L’Appartement – Espace Images Vevey, Your Views opens a multitude of windows onto the world, in keeping with the theme of a window that is at the very heart of the visual identity of this new venue, which once served as railway workers’ housing at Vevey station.
Dog Days, Bogotá is a project Alec Soth holds very dear to his heart. In 2003, while in the final stages of the official process to adopt his daughter, this well-known photographer spent two months in Colombia. With time on his hands, he explored her hometown and its inhabitants. Dog Days, Bogotá is presented in Le Couloir, the corridor of L’Appartement – Espace Images Vevey, specifically designed for children. This project tells the story of parents’ long wait as they prepare to adopt their daughter and start a new life.
Laureate of the Images Vevey Book Award 2021/2022, Carmen Winant presents her innovative Arrangements project, an assembly of pages torn out of various publications she gathered over the years. This American artist rearranged these images in pairs, in their original format, to compose new narratives. Her publication, displayed in the form of an exhibit, presents a journey into the heart of multiple archives examining, in a novel way, the recycling and reappropriation of printed objects for new editorial purposes. | | |
