This exhibition is a fundraiser at its core. The proceeds from sold photographs, drinks and snacks will be directed in full to the Berlin-based Be an Angel Organization , which has been supporting refugees since 2015. In the Name of Freedom responds to the war and puts forward select works from the organization’s ongoing NFT project. These women photographers have been selling NFT’s to raise funds in aid of victims of the war. Their earnings have been directed towards orphanages, animal shelters, as well as their own photographer’s journeys towards a safe place. "In the Name of Freedom", brings together photographs showcasing diverse faces of a country caught between tradition and modernity. Young girls of bygone times, glorified grandmothers, yellow-blue dachas, Soviet buildings, Molotov cocktails and iPhones to taste: A kaleidoscope of images emerges. In all their subjectivity, these Ukrainian artists give us an intimate, documentary, tragic and surreal vision of a country in flux and now at war. Exhibiting Artists: Viktorya Agureeva | Tetyana Afanasyeva | Anna Biletska | Marina Brodovska | Inna Bondarenko | Yana Franz | Yana Hryhorenko | Elena Lemberska | Toma Magdyk | Olena Morozova | Kristina Mos | Yuliana Paranko | Evgenia Pervak | Maria Petrenko | Xenia Petrovska | Polina Polikarpova | Olia Koval | Maryna Kurnysh | Olesia Saienko | Olena Shved | Lada Solovyova | Synchrodogs | Olena Subach | Lesya Teslya | Irina Vlasyuk | Kris Voitkiv | Anastasia Zhuk About the Ukrainian Women Photographers Organization: The Ukrainian Women Photographers Organization has around 100 women photographers as its members. Artist and curator Hanna Melenykova founded the organization in 2020 with the intent to unite women photographers within Ukraine during the first COVID lockdown. What once started as a corona project now empowers women through their creative practices as their country is at war. The association also aims to help give Ukrainian Photography international visibility. | |

In “Looking Forward”, we are bringing together 12 contemporary photographers who are pushing the boundaries of photography. From artists experimenting with abstraction to those iterating on centuries-long traditions, these artists are contributing to the future of the medium. For German photographer Jessica Backhaus, “colors are emotions.” In her “Cut Outs” series, Backhaus lets vibrantly-colored geometric cutouts of transparent paper react to the heat of intense sunlight over a period of time. She then photographs the results, documenting the ways in which the paper reacts and shadows appear and morph, relinquishing control of the final outcome. Julie Blackmon and Paulette Tavormina are both looking backward to reimagine art historical tropes as photographs. Tavormina composes lush, vibrant still lifes reminiscent of the Dutch masters of the 17th and 18th centuries. Filled with supple fruit, buzzing insects, and subtle reminders of death and mortality, she plays on the photorealistic nature of Dutch still lifes by literally capturing the familiar images in photo. | |

| Eddy Novarro: Hannah Höch + Joseph Beuys | | Eddy Novarro » Artist Portraits | | 6 April – 6 May 2022 | | | | | | | | Eddy Novarro (born Vasile Novaru) was probably born in Bucharest in 1925. He began his photographic career in the 1950s as a press photographer. His first subjects were actors, heads of state and, above all, artists. Novarro's photographs were first exhibited in Madrid in 1960. Under the title "Kaleidoscope of Modernity - Chagall, Miró, Picasso and the Avant-garde", the portraits were juxtaposed with works of art that had been given and dedicated to Novarro by the respective artist in gratitude for the portrait. The dates of origin of the portraits have only survived in a few cases. The exhibition presents around 40 portraits of famous artists by photographer Eddy Novarro. Portraits of Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró, Man Ray, Alexander Calder, Hannah Höch, Joseph Beuys and many other well-known people from the art world will be shown. | |

| Willy Maywald Jaques Fath, 50ties Vintage, 24 x 18 cm Courtesy in focus Galerie / © Willy Maywald Estate | | Willy Maywald » Paris – Haute Couture of the 50ties | | 2 April – 27 May, 2022 | | Opening: Saturday, 2 April, 7pm – 9:30pm | | | | | | | | Willy Maywald (1907-1985) was one of the most important photographers in Paris from the 1930s to the 1960s. His training at the Werkkunstschulen in Krefeld, Cologne and Berlin shaped his avant-garde formal language. In 1932 he moved to the Seine, where he made friends with many protagonists of artistic modernism. His range of subjects, which includes both commissioned and free works, extends from a spectacular collection of portrait photographs and fashion photos for all the major Parisian couture houses to dance and architectural photography as well as travel and city reports. The in focus gallery, Cologne focuses on Maywald's fashion photographs, some of which have never been shown before. Willy Maywald photographed the first post-war collection of Christian Dior in Paris. His photographs went around the world and made the New Look famous. Commissions from Jacques Fath and other haute couture houses followed. The exhibition of in focus Galerie presents his fashion photographs in all their facets with old vintage prints. Willy Maywald's distinctive staging of haute couture fashion can be found in all major treatises on the history of photography, but only "specialists" know of its creator. A retrospective was organized by the Kleve Museum, and solo exhibitions were held at the Cagnes Castle Museum and the Palazzo Ducale in Genoa. Maywald photographs were also represented in the show "Paris, Paris" at the Centre Pompidou. Across the pond, the Fashion Institute of Technology arranged the largest Maywald exhibition in 1982, with 150 photographs. His photos could be seen everywhere from Sao Paulo to Tokyo. After Maywald's death, interest waned again - to this day, Maywald's photographic treasure is waiti… | |

| Herbert W. Franke Phantastische Welten_Türme, 2001-2004 © Herbert W. Franke | | Herbert W. Franke » Visionary | | 30 March – 12 June 2022 | | | | | | | | On the occasion of the 95th birthday of the media art pioneer Herbert W. Franke, the Upper Austrian Landes-Kultur GmbH is honouring his life and extraordinary work with an exhibition. Herbert W. Franke is a pioneer in many worlds, a border crosser between art and science who made very early and decisive achievements in numerous disciplines. As a computer artist of the first hour, he first experimented with generative photography in 1952, but as early as 1954 he first used an analogue computer and then, from the 1960s onwards, the first mainframe computers for his abstract "algorithmic" art based on mathematical principles. In 1979 he was a co-founder of Ars Electronica and in the 2000s a mastermind of the metaverse, with his 3D world "Z-Galaxy", built and operated with Susanne Päch, an area of changing exhibitions on the internet platform Active Worlds. Franke's writing career as well as his visual art work began at the end of the 1940s deep underground, in the caves of Europe. He explored numerous large caves in the Dachstein massif for the first time and remained internationally active into old age. As a theoretical physicist, he was not only concerned with the formation of dripstone caves, but also with questions of cybernetics and with processes of perception, which led to his rational theory of art. In addition to numerous technical and non-fiction books, he also wrote award-winning science fiction stories and novels. His life and extensive oeuvre are based equally on the rationality of the researcher and the creativity of the artist. The exhibition Herbert W. Franke - Visionary is dedicated to this extraordinary bridge between art and science and the enormous power of imagination - from art to science fiction literature, from the beauty of mat… | |

| | René Groebli Nude # 853, 2001 Tirage argentique 18 x 25 cm, édition de 7 |
| | René Groebli » Perspectives | | ... until 23 April 2022 | | Vernissage: Wednesday, 30 March, in presence of the artist | | | | | | | | René Groebli, born in 1927 in Zurich, belongs to a generation of Swiss photographers who, after the Second World War, left their mark on the history of 20th century photography. As a student of Hans Finsler in the famous photography class at the Zurich School of Art, which was also attended by Robert Franck, Werner Bischof and René Burri, he freed himself from the research of the new objectivity of the 1920s. The young photographer made his mark by creating images rather than taking them, and by placing as much emphasis on emotion as on information. A photographer who dissociated himself from professional classifications, René Groebli left photojournalism at the age of 26 and distinguished himself by a personal style of writing in perpetual movement. The photographer made his mark in 1949 with the series "La Magie du Rail", a black and white railway adventure. Placed in the locomotive, he records with masterly poetry the mechanical odyssey of the steam engine; what he creates at the age of 24 is a cinematographic narrative that imposes the rhythm of another era, the movement takes time, the landscape scrolls to the rhythm of the sleepers and the stone tunnels that mark out the course of the train. In these images, the whistling and the noise, we feel the steam, the smoke, the heat, the whole soul of train travel. This accurate and poetic view was exalted by René Groebli in 1953 in "L'Œil de l'Amour". In his photographs he conveys the sensual and amorous feelings of the honeymoon in Paris with his wife Rita. It is probably one of the most beautiful declarations of love in the history of photography, created almost twenty years before Nobuyoshi Araki's "Sentimental Jour… | |
