| Luca Santese Detroit - Mary, a single mother, with her son, 2009 30 × 40 cm (11,8 × 15,7 in) | | Luca Santese » Mütter | | 9 June – 2 July, 2023 | | Opening: Friday, 9 June, 6pm | |  | | | |  | | "Mütter", Luca Santese's first solo show in Germany is hosted and curated by JERGON, an art hub located in Berlin's cultural heart of Kreuzberg. The space is dedicated to the promotion of experimental photography and a center for independent research.
The exhibition itinerary unfolds in three spaces, each representing the constituent stages of Santese 's artist practice, which has been questioning the mimesis of the photographic image for 15 years by means of an ongoing comparison and association with archetypes and themes belonging to the history of classic and contemporary art. The artwork on display is drawn from the following series: Found Photos in Detroit, Sado, Festa and Errors, leading up to a metamorphic dialogue between abstraction and figuration, the historical and the archetypical, the realist and the visionary. The exhibition is curated by Nicola Patruno.
Luca Santese (*1985) pursued his studies at Monza's Art institute and at the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera in Milan. While attending the Academy he worked as an assistant in Alex Majoli's studio and together they founded the collective Cesura in 2008. Cesura is an independent group of photographers aimed to impulse and support photojournalism, documentary and projects within art research.
In 2010 he was selected by the World Press Photo prize with the project Detroit 2009-2010 and in the same year he exhibited for the first time Found Photos in Detroit at Le Bal Space in Paris, to which followed exhibitions at Kulturhuset in Stockholm, OGR in Turin and the MoCP in Chicago as well as numerous further international exhibitions. | |

| | Malte Sänger » of a Traveling Bird Collector | | ... until 10 Jul 2023 | |  | | | |  | | Malte Sänger's photographic narrative of a Traveling Bird Collector follows the traces of the "Harzer Roller", a canary that was one of the best-known and most popular German export goods in the 19th century, especially in the USA.
Bred in the villages of the Harz Mountains, the bird was not only popular for its melodius song, it was also used by miners around the world to save them from dying in the mines. If one of the canaries in the dark shafts stopped singing and fell unconscious from the perch, this signal protected the workers from inhaling excessive gas concentrations and enabled them to get to safety in time.
With the help of a large format camera he built especially for this series, Malte Sänger follows the winding paths of the Harz Roller and explores life deep in the layers of geology and in the cracks in our history. He is interested in the blind spots of this story and in the economic and ideological interests behind them.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a publication with photographs by Malte Sänger and an essay by Sophie Haslinger (German/English). We’ll be happy to reserve a signed copy for you. Malte Sänger (b. 1987) studied photography, philosophy and aesthetics at the Hochschule für Gestaltung in Offenbach (diploma) before completing his studies with a Master of Fine Arts at the California Institute of the Arts in Los Angeles.
In 2018/19 he was a prize winner at "Gute Aussichten - Junge deutsche Fotografie" and received their GRANT III scholarship in 2019/20. In 2015 he was awarded the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation and HfG Award, and for his books Shifting Baselines (2018) as well as Hinterland (2020), daemon and Ein Euro… | |

| Peter Keetman Fotografische Studie für die Boehringer-Berichte, ca. 1958 Vintage ferrotyped gelatin silver print on Leonar paper 17.7 x 23.5 cm © Peter Keetman Archiv/Stiftung F.C. Gundlach, 2023 | | Peter Keetman » Vintage Photographs from the Gerd Sander Collection | | ... until 30 June, 2023 | |  | | | |  | | With the exhibition "Peter Keetman. Vintage Photographs from the Gerd Sander Collection" Galerie Julian Sander is presenting one of the central figures of post-war German photography. In 1949, Keetman was one of the founders of the fotoform group, whose experimental, graphically incisive works echoed the photographic avant-garde of the 1920s. Keetman knew how to combine the influence that the "New Photographers" of the Weimar period had on him with his own individual perception of the reality that surrounded him and to translate it into a new, contemporary aesthetic. During his photographic activity, which spanned several decades, he focused his gaze on recurring subjects. He was interested in visually appealing phenomena that nature and the world of things have to offer: the transparency of a drop of water, the diffuse smoke of a cigarette, condensation in which the light refracts, crystalline ice formations, reflections, steam and fog. Through the lens of his camera, he isolated these optical phenomena and translated them into images of austere, graphic beauty.
"We are surrounded - whether we take note of it or not - by a world full of lawful wonders" Peter Keetman recorded in later years. To make these wonders visible was what he saw as his task as a photographer.
The nearly fifty photographs, all of which are vintage prints produced close to the time the negative was taken, come from the estate of Gerd Sander, who died two years ago, and have recently been rediscovered. Sander, who was just establishing himself as a photo gallerist in New York at the time, had acquired most of them from the photographer himself around 1980. Among them are some of Keetman's most famous, widely published photographs, but also wor… | |

| Ursula Schulz-Dornburg 'Memoryscapes, St Petersburg, Russia', 2000 Photograph; Diasecâ 148 x 208 cm © Ursula Schulz-Dornburg | | Ursula Schulz-Dornburg » Memoryscapes | | ... until 1 July 2023 | |  | | | |  | | Memoryscapes is a solo exhibition by the German artist Ursula Schulz-Dornburg, realised in collaboration with Lucy Rogers.
In 2012, Ursula Schulz-Dornburg travelled to north-eastern Kazakhstan to photograph the remains of the Soviet Union's largest nuclear weapons programme. Located in a vast area south-west of the city of Kurchatov, Opytnoe Pole was once a top-secret open-air laboratory, used to measure and record the devastating effects of nuclear weapons. Taken almost twenty years after the closure of the facility, Schulz-Dornburg's photographs portray a desolate landscape, devoid of life and still suffering the effects of radiation. The area was looted after its closure in 1991 – an act which inadvertently dispersed radioactive material across the continent – and later subject to an intensive clean-up operation by the Kazakh, Russian and US authorities. It is a landscape still laden with the artefacts of an architecture built to be destroyed.
Born in Berlin in 1938, Schulz-Dornburg grew up in the aftermath of the Second World War – in a divided Germany and an era defined by new borders in Europe and elsewhere. Since the 1970s, she has sought out places of transit and borderlands, locations geographically and politically caught up in a state of in-between, where multiple layers of history intersect, coexist and collide. Reflecting the lands in which she has travelled, her archive reveals a constellation which extends beyond the scope of individual images – an entanglement of narratives which overlap in time and space. Exhibitions and publications become a method for thinking through the archive, bringing together new and familiar works into new combinations and sequences. | |

| LAURA STEVENS Yellow leaves, waxing moon (2023) Archival pigment print 100x70cm | LAURA STEVENS Hymn (2023) Archival pigment print 50x65 cm |
| | Laura Stevens » Tu oublieras aussi | | ... until 30 June 2023 | |  | | | |  | | Galerie Miranda is delighted to present the second solo exhibition by artist Laura Stevens, entitled Tu oublieras aussi (You will also forget).
One of France’s most solicited portrait photographers, in her personal projects Stevens explores a resolutely feminine and contemporary point of view of the private sphere, questioning notions of desire, the passing of time, solitude and loss, the connection between the artist and her subject. For her first exhibition at Galerie Miranda, Corps d'hommes (2020), Stevens presented her perspective on the male nude, photographed in the private space of her Paris apartment bedroom. For this second exhibition, she pursues her questioning of the intimate sphere but this time considers two bodies, lovers, and what binds them, asking herself the question of the memory of desire and how to represent it.
Until now, the history of erotic photography has largely been written by and for men (Araki, Newton, Molinier, Mapplethorpe…), for the most part with explicit and performative images within a dominant-dominated framework. Several women photographers have made a mark in this territory but in general with a transgressive or militant posture (Krull, Natalia L, Ionesco, Cahun) that doesn’t fundamentally offer an alternative to the status quo. Fortunately, the list is longer of landmark women artists in other fields of photography - documentary, conceptual and experimental.
Confronted by the weight of these historical signatures, Laura Stevens quietly follows her own path, one that is feminine, free and egalitarian. In the tradition of Anglo-Saxon women photographers of the private sphere, such as Jo Ann Callis, Nan Goldin, Lise Sarfati and Mona Kuhn, Laura Stevens proposes a… | |

It is a composite field with connections to all subjects, including language and literature, mathematics, science, and social studies. In each of these disciplines, researchers are exploring the “unknowns” of the world, delving into history, and making new discoveries and inventions from the past to the future in order to enrich our perception of the world. The stance adopted by contemporary artists that seeks to go beyond our preconceptions in a creative way is also connected to this exploration of these unknowns. In this sense, the contemporary art museum is something akin to a “classroom of the world” where we can encounter and learn about these unknown worlds.
WORLD CLASSROOM: Contemporary Art through School Subjects, commemorating the 20th anniversary of the Mori Art Museum, is an attempt for us to encounter a world we have never seen or known from a wide variety of perspectives, using the subjects we learn at school as a gateway to contemporary art. Even though this exhibition is divided into such sections as “Language and Literature,” “Social Studies,” “Philosophy,” “Mathematics,” “Science,” “Music,” “Phys. Ed.,” and “Transdisciplinary,” each work, in fact, crosses over multiple subjects and domains. While over half the exhibited works will be drawn from the Mori Art Museum Collection for the first time ever, there will also be newly-commissioned artworks for this exhibition - altogether creating a “classroom of the world,” place o… | |

| |  | | | |  | | REBELLIOUS AND DEEPLY ROOTED IMAGES OF HOPE FROM THE ORIENT! A PHOTOGRAPHIC JOURNEY BETWEEN LIGHT AND SHADOW.
ORIENT! focuses on photographers from Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Three countries that all belong to the Persian cultural area. Three predominantly Muslim countries with Indo-European populations that remain subject to the laws of religion and obscurantism. Three countries that we know little about, although they have captured the hearts of all travellers like Marco Polo. Three countries whose photographers are the defenders of positive thinking and ambassadors of environmental awareness. Three countries that are home to a millennia-old civilisation, a unique artistic creativity and courageous authors who have chosen photography to define their place in society. Photographers from these countries have always chosen to break conventions in order to develop an innovative style and look at people and gods with a humanistic eye. Honour to whom honour is due: Abbas, Gohar Dashti and Hamed Noori, Ebrahim Noroozi, Maryam Firuzi, Hashem Shakeri, Paul Almasy, Véronique de Viguerie, Fatimah Hossaini, Shah Marai and Wakil Kohsar, Sarah Caron.
Since its inception, the festival has never wavered from its mission to show the beauty of nature as well as to address the need to protect it. Through the prism of photography, we aim to highlight the challenges of a sustainable world without naivety. At the same time, the sometimes dramatic reality is never disregarded. All photographs are signs of our unshakeable belief in the future. The photographers at our festival are determined to be witnesses and part of the effort to preserve our most beautiful common asset - planet Earth: Mélanie Wenger, Bernard Descamps, Gabriele Cecconi, Stephan Gladieu, Money Sharma, Reporters Without Borders, Brigitte Kössner-Skoff and Gerhard Skoff, Antonin Borgeaud, Jérôme Blin, Alisa Martynova, Maxime Taillez, Chloé Azzopardi.
This year, the bilateral photo project of the Morbihan schools in Brittany and Lower Austria is dedicated to the theme of openings. Whether in the literal or figurative sense, the concept of opening also encompasses communication and journeys to new places or people. Ultimately, it raises the question of the construction of our individual and collective identity and our relationship with others.
Photography undoubtedly remains the most incisive tool for changing public opinion and for preserving glimmers of humanity. The Austrian photographers Rudolf Koppitz and Horst Stasny also stand in this tradition. From Gregor Schörg, the festival will show the second part of his work on the wilderness area Dürrenstein-Lassingtal. The exhibition of Lower Austrian professional photographers and the exhibition of the winning photos of the world's largest photo competition, CEWE's "Our World is Beautiful", with almost 700,000 pictures from 170 countries, will round up the festival, as will the retrospective of 2021 in the pictures of the artist in residence Pascal Maitre. In addition, the Austrian photographer Cathrine Stukhard was commissioned to portray the World Heritage Site of Vichy and place it in the context of UNESCO's eleven "Great Spa Towns of Europe", which also include Baden near Vienna.
Under the guiding principle of Culture of Solidarity, the cooperation with the festival partners Garden Tulln, Celje in Slovenia and Month of Photography Bratislava will continue in 2023. | |

Bienal’23 co-artistic directors Jayne Dyer and Virgílio Ferreira invited 70 artists and 14 guest curators in 14 locations in Porto, transforming them into dynamic creative spaces where visitors are invited to participate in artistic ‘Acts of Empathy’.
Bienal’23 explores our ability to feel, collaborate and drive change through artistic acts of connectivity, reparation, and healing via CONECTAR, EXPANDIR, SUSTENTAR, VIVIFICAR (Connect, Expand, Sustain, Vivify), four sections that intersect local and global perspectives.
While SUSTENTAR features creative laboratories in Portuguese urban centers that look into urban and regional sustainability issues, VIVIFICAR, through artistic residencies with communities, addresses one of the most pressing issues in low-density territories: the settlement of populations. Because these two sections demand concrete solutions and actions, EXPANDIR brings an experimental dimension by presenting academic and professional socio-ecological initiatives for emerging artists. CONECTAR fosters diverse cultural and artistic ecosystems through the interchange of exhibition projects, ideas, and transdisciplinary practices on a national and worldwide scale.
Bienal'23 features projects that are supported by deliberate artist engagement in community and environmental activities in order to foster reparative acts and empathy for the future. | |
