| | | From far away, I hear the Cossacks’ reply, 2023 © Emeric Lhuisset | | | The Camera as a Weapon | | | | | | | pop-up exhibition: 5 – 14 Februar 2024 | | | Regarding the pain of others | | | | Foam Dialogue: Photography & Conflict | | | | | | | Symposium: Saturday 10 February 2024 | | | day programme: 13.00 - 17.00 hrs
evening programme: 17.00 - 21:00 hrs | | | | | | | | | | | | | What is the role of photography in times of conflict? In response to current events, this pop-up exhibition aims to raise question and stimulate discussion by showcasing works from 6 artists and serves as a reflection on the different roles that imagery plays during conflict.
The works from six artists in The Camera as a Weapon differ widely from the perspectives they take to the conflicts they discuss, but every one of them illustrates the impactful role of the camera in times of conflict. The exhibition examines examples such as the first time that videos shot by civilians shaped the world's view of a conflict, to reconstructing timelines of important events throughout conflicts.
The works illustrate how the lens has made it possible to shed light on conflicts from different viewpoints, allowing the everyday citizen to speak up. On the other hand, in a time where technological developments are making it increasingly difficult to distinguish between what is real and what is not, it is important to ask the questions about the value we attach to - and the purpose of all the imagery - that circulate on our social networks. | | |

Edition of 7 | | | | | | | | | | | | | 9 February – 6 April 2024 | | | | Opening: Friday 9 February 17:00 | | | | | | | | | | | | | 'Feed me not‘ is an exhibition, that brings together a diverse group of artists and designers questioning the relationship to materials, information and emotions that we are confronted with beyond our personal choice. By processing these both subjectively and critically, they offer us alternative ways of approaching our lives and experiences. In order to do so, the selected artists conscientiously transform various discarded materials, such as e-waste, bulky waste or collected flip-flops into sublime works of art. Through their narratives, they reflect on how the decisions of today’s society reflect on our futures. Wether in performance, photography or abstract tapestries, the show serves as a visual reflection on the overproduction of plastic, global supply chains and planetary responsibility.
At the same time the exhibition also holds space for the documentary of a communitarian projects that fashion designer Heinemann has recently set up in Ghana with Kwabena Obiri Yeboah and Martin Wöllenstein: The Nnoboa Space is an innovative program for young art and design professionals from the Sekondi–Takoradi Area and offers comprehensive training led by local and international fashion design and film/photography experts. | | |

| | | | | | | Photographic Treasures of the 20th Century | | | | | | | | 15 February – 20 May 2024 | | | | Opening: Wednesday 14 February 18:00 | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Helmut Newton Foundation and Pinault Collection proudly present CHRONORAMA. Photographic Treasures of the 20th Century. Following its highly successful premiere at Palazzo Grassi in Venice, the collaborative project will be shown at the Helmut Newton Foundation in Berlin starting 15 February 2024. "CHRONORAMA" marks the latest partnership between the Helmut Newton Foundation in Berlin and leading international collections. In 2018, it hosted "Between Art & Fashion", with 223 works by 85 photographers from the collection of Carla Sozzani, former editor-in-chief of the Italian Elle and Vogue.
Now, the foundation unveils François Pinault’s recently acquired collection of exceptional photographs, including portraits, fashion, still lifes, architecture, photojournalism, as well as early illustrations from the legendary Condé Nast Archive. Showcasing nearly 250 works created between 1910 and the late-1970s for Condé Nast’s style-defining magazines, this chronological presentation traces the evolution of the fashion industry against the backdrop of radical changes in western culture, spanning subjects from the sophisticated to the sublime. Naturally, Helmut Newton’s works are also part of this remarkable collection, as he contributed extensively to Condé Nast magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair from the 1950s onward. Most of Newton’s fashion photographs featured in this show have not been previously exhibited in Berlin.
Furthermore, the exhibition brings together an impressive array of Helmut Newton’s contemporaries and predecessors, including trailblazing photographers like Diane … | | |

Floresta amazônica, Pará - da série Sonhos Yanomami
[Amazon Forest, Pará from Yanomami Dreams series], 2002
Copyright: © Claudia Andujar. Courtesy Galeria Vermelho, São Paulo | | | | | | | | 9 February – 11 August 2024 | | | | Opening: Thursday, 8 February, 7 pm | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Swiss-born Brazilian photographer and activist Claudia Andujar (*1931) serves as a role model for many politically motivated artists today. She is not only an outstanding photographer but also an activist who uses her artistic voice to draw attention to social injustices and defend the rights of indigenous communities. Her political commitment is reflected in her photography, which is not only artistically documentary but also carries a clear political message.
After fleeing the Nazis, she decided to pursue a career as a photojournalist and became involved in the fight against dictatorship and violence in her new home of Brazil. From the early 1970s, she documented not only the daily life of the Yanomami indigenous community in the Amazon in northern Brazil, but also the conflicts they faced due to mining, land disputes, and diseases. Andujar henceforth dedicated her life and work to the struggle for the rights of the Yanomami, a community she joined.
As part of her five decades of dedication to the protection of the Yanomami, Andujar has taken over 60,000 photographs. She has advocated for the Yanomami through her art and has also become a vehement supporter of their rights. Her efforts helped to draw international attention to the threats they face. Many indigenous activists today refer to Andujar’s impactful work over the past decades.
Today, Claudia Andujar is considered one of the most important figures in photography in South America. Her works have been exhibited in renowned museums and galleries around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York. She has received numerous awards and recognitions for her artistic and social work. | | |

A carte blanche given to Virginie Otth | | | | | | | ... until 25 February 2024 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Richard Mosse (Ireland, 1980) gained recognition for his socially committed documentaires often presented via immersive and monumental installations. He is known for his landscapes in shades of red and pink from the series Infra (2010) depicting the civil war in the Democratic Republic of Congo. More recently, he has focused on migratory flows, which he captures with military thermal imaging cameras (The Castle, 2017, Incoming, 2018).
The work of Deborah Turbeville (1932-2013) defies classification. The American photographer belonged to no school or movement. Her unique visual signature has been recognisable since she emerged as a major talent in the 1970s; a certain timelessness melancholy and a patina emanate from her haunting photographs taken over four decades. This retrospective will present Turbeville's photographic explorations, from fashion photos to her very personal work.
A key figure in contemporary photography in Lausanne, Virginie Otth (Switzerland, 1971) presents four previously unseen works, as well as her first film. This monographic exhibition brings together works that combine the various interests and reflections that have animated the artist for many years, and which question the relationship to the fragmentary, lacunar and ever-renewed world offered by photography, but also by our gaze and our perception.
In this photographic exploration, Mathieu Bernard-Reymond (France, 1976) has chosen to combine extracts from the writings of C. F. Ramuz with image-generating artificial intelligence tools. In D’après Ramuz, a project initiated by La Muette – literary spaces, he gives form to the mental images that are shaped when reading a text, gradually transforming them into a visual reality.
In tandem with her exhibition A Lake in the Eye, Virginie Otth (Switzerland, 1971) has invited ten artists with whom she has crossed paths at the Vevey School of Photography (CEPV) over the past two decades.

| | | Francesco Neri: San Pietro in Vincoli 9.11.22, 2022 | | | | | | | | ... until 16 March 2024 | | | | | | | | | | | | | This exhibition marks Italian photographer Francesco Neri’s London debut and the first presentation of a body of work made over the last two years in the tiny hamlet of Boncellino near to his home town of Faenza in the northern region of Emilia-Romagna. Faenza is surrounded by an abundant, cultivated landscape, farmed since Roman times with fruits and vegetables, vines and cereals. Increasingly, though, its rural villages are experiencing the deadening effects of depopulation and ecological degradation.
Boncellino is the latest iteration of what has become a prolonged study of the agrarian communities of Neri’s native region. The study was catalysed in 2009 by an encounter with a local farmer Livio Papi. With their meeting, Neri found the key to unlock his own deep sense of connection to place. Through the portraiture of the region’s people, and more specifically, his photographic interaction with them, he saw the route "to understand where I am from". Like many photographers who focus on what is closest to them, the project is in one sense also an evolving self-portrait. Neri returns to photograph people - and the buildings they have made - again and again, "to retrace my steps and see how things and people have changed. I too have changed in turn." As the work grows, the photographer and his subjects age together, and the photographic project itself becomes a record of the passage of time.
Excerpt from the introduction written by Kate Bush.
Part of the exhibition is a new portfolio, Wooden Tool Shed, comprising 8 gelatin silver contact prints and an accompanying book with further illustrations, alongside a new text by David Campany, produced by Imagebeeld Edition, Brussels. | | |

| | Jefferson HAYMAN
The American Spring
Ed 4 of 12
25,5cm | | | | | | | | 9 February – 6 April 2024 | | | | Opening: Thursday, 8 February, 6 pm | | | | | | | | | | | | | David Guiraud Gallery first showcased Jefferson Hayman in France in 2016 and has since organized three solo shows in the Marais district, while regularly featuring his work at the Art Elysées fair in Paris. The connection between the gallery and the contemporary artist is longstanding and reflects a commitment for the long term.
Jefferson Hayman stands out as an original artist in the landscape of contemporary photography. His work is characterized by simple and delicate images of characters, objects, or landscapes, printed using a variety of both modern and ancient techniques (silver gelatin, platinum, cyanotype, pigment), revealing his admiration and knowledge of the Pictorialist movement of the early 20th century.
Hayman pays homage to the entire early 20th-century American photography movement, drawing inspiration from it in the treatment of light and the composition of his images. His views of New York are captivating, transporting us to 1920 in Alfred Stieglitz and Edward Steichen's Gallery 291, surrounded by masterpieces of modern photography. Jefferson Hayman's gaze upon the clouds is another connection to A. Stieglitz and his series "Equivalents."
Despite this, Jefferson Hayman is indeed a contemporary artist, born in 1969 in the United States. While his contemporaneity may not be evident in the approach to his shooting or darkroom printing, it resides in the subjects and themes he addresses. Presenting the mask of Darth Vador or a skateboard in a classic treatment creates a sense of anachronism. This likely contributes to the notion of nostalgia and a chosen suspended time in Hayman's work. The sensitivity of an era, his era, is composed within the prints of this artist.
Yet, Hayman's artistic proposition goes beyond. Thank… | | |

Bruno Spoerri, the Swiss pioneer of electronic music in conversation with techno artist Arnold Meyer | | | | | | | | | | | | | For the very first time, Switzerland’s techno culture is finding its way into the museum. To celebrate this multifaceted youth culture, Photobastei is proud to present two major exhibitions.
"TECHNO WORLDS" is supported by the Goethe-Institut. It engages with local and global techno perspectives through the works of visual artists and wages an experiment by showcasing some significant developments of techno and club culture.
"THE PULSE OF TECHNO" is produced by Photobastei, with a focus on Zurich’s techno scene, which took off in the 90s. The city became a European hotspot for electronic music, so much so that the Federal Office of Culture put Zurich's techno scene on the UNESCO Cultural Heritage list of living traditions in 2017.
The two exhibitions include an extensive supporting programme with parties by international and Swiss stars, concerts, workshops, an oral history series on club history: Zurich Calling, panels by the Zurich Bar and Club Commission and conversations with influential figures of the early days. | | |

| | | | | | | | Prize for Portrait Photography | | | Artists up to and including the age of 40
Submissions are open until 9 February 2024
All details: here | | | The August Sander Award for portrait photography, donated by Ulla Bartenbach and Prof. Dr. Kurt Bartenbach, will be awarded for the fourth time in 2024 in cooperation with Die Photographische Sammlung/SK Stiftung Kultur, Cologne.
The idea behind the award is to promote young contemporary artistic approaches in the sense of objective and conceptual photography.

Eligible are national and international artists up to and including the age of 40 with a focus on photography. The prize is endowed with 5,000 €. In addition, the Photographische Sammlung/SK Stiftung Kultur will organize an exhibition of the award winner's work, if possible and by individual agreement.
For the submission is suitable already largely developed series, from which a maximum of 20 photographic prints should be sent. Only works that follow a thematically bound image group or sequence will be evaluated; individual images will not be considered. The works submitted should not have won a prize in other competitions.
The jury is composed of five members: Bernhard Fuchs, artist, Düsseldorf, Prof. Dr. Martin Hochleitner, Salzburg Museum, Salzburg, Kirsten Degel, Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Humlebæk, Dr. Anja Bartenbach, sponsor family; Gabriele Conrath-Scholl, director, Die Photographische Sammlung/SK Stiftung Kultur, Cologne.

| | | | INTERNATIONAL DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHY PROGRAM | | | | 12 month program in Berlin starts 16/17 March 2024 | | | | Applications now open! | | | | | | | | | | | | | HWF is offering two 12 month programs; one in Berlin.
The Scottish filmmaker, John Grierson coined the term documentary in the 1920’s and defined it as "the creative treatment of actuality." HWF offers an educational program based on Grierson’s deceptively simple definition, designed with the purpose for students to engage with documentary photography, with reference to the complex and discursive history of this particular and rapidly evolving genre.
From the onset students will be set small yet stimulating assignments to begin the process of questioning the very essence of the photograph and the practical issues of effectively engaging with the subject. Conceptual, experimental and straight approaches are all encompassed. Passion is the fuel and an essential motivation for any photographer to actively and intellectually engage in the real world. Key issues are researching, shooting, editing and sequencing projects during the process of making the work. It is only in the doing of the work that the meaning of the work begins to make sense. A great emphasis is placed on finding a natural visual voice, via technique and the appropriate visual attitude to the subject.
The program is designed for 12 students. | | | | |
