| Jacquie Maria Wessels: Garage Stills #10/2014 | Martijn Doolaard: Wilde boerndochter, 2019 |
| | Galerie Baudelaire on Tour | | during Unseen Amsterdam (Westergasfabriek) | | Martijn Doolaard » Jacquie Maria Wessels » | | 19 - 22 September, 2019 | | Opening: Thursday, 19 September, 18-21h Galerie Baudelaire [Antwerp, BE] presents a duo exhibition during Unseen Amsterdam at the Westergasfabriekterrein with photography by Jacquie Maria Wessels and by Martijn Doolaard from their latest series, respectively "Garage Stills" and "Fiction Romance". | | | | | | | | Garage Stills – Jacquie Maria Wessels For her Garage Stills project, Jacquie Maria Wessels is looking for traditional car repair garages all over the world. She is fascinated and intrigued by the shapes and colours of the mysterious, to her completely unknown objects she discovers in this wonderful universe. With the found attributes she creates painterly still lifes on the spot, which she captures with an analogue camera. The poetic Garage Stills with challenging colour formations and staging surprise and have an attractive beauty, but are also a document of a disappearing world. Fiction Romance – Martijn Doolaard The starting point for each photo is an existing image, whether created by Doolaard or not, which he then digitally edits. His interventions are those of a painter: he wipes, fragments, fades, scratches, deforms, obscures or attacks with fierce swipes with his digital brush. The final designs generate a wealth of visual and interpretative possibilities that far exceed the modest parameters of the original image. In a moment of inconsideration the familiar world disappears, and at the same time something unknown appears, that dismays and troubles, but also fascinates and attracts. | |

| Marianne Strobl | Perrondach-Construction in der Haltestelle Praterstern, der Wiener Stadtbahn, 1898 © Photoinstitut Bonartes, Wien | | MARIANNE STROBL 1865-1917 » | | Industrial photographer in Vienna | | 19 September 2019 – 8 March 2020 | | Opening: Wednesday, 18 September, 7pm | | | | | | | | The legacy left behind by the Viennese photographer Marianne Strobl (1865-1917) proved to be a windfall for historians of photography. Strobl did not want to earn her money in a portrait studio like most of her female colleagues. Instead, between 1894 and 1917, she took her camera out to major construction sites and industrial facilities, and today she ranks as the first woman to pursue industrial photography in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Specializing in this field was Marianne Strobl’s personal strategy for competing in Vienna’s tough photography market around 1900. The Austrian photographer Marianne Strobl was rediscovered in 2017 for the Photoinstitut Bonartes in Vienna, and an initial exhibition was curated by Dr. Ulrike Matzer. The life and work of this photographer are a sensational find for the history of early industrial photography. With some 60 black-and-white photographs from Austrian collections, together with albums and showcased documents, the exhibition at Das Verborgene Museum in Berlin will introduce this trailblazer from the period around 1900 to an audience outside Vienna. An exhibition in cooperation with the Photoinstitut Bonartes in Vienna. | |

| ×»«Kazimieras Mizgiris, Wind + Sand. Kurische Nehrung, 1976-2000, Silbergelatineabzug, 20.5 x 29.5 cm, © Kazimieras Mizgiris | | 100 years of bauhaus IV: | | THE CURONIAN SPIT | | Alfred Ehrhardt » Kazimieras Mizgiris » | | 21 September – 22 December, 2019 | | Opening: Friday, 20 September, 7–9 pm | | | | | | | | The Curonian Spit, with its unique, drifting sand dunes and sand formations reshaped daily by the wind, has fascinated and inspired generations of writers, artists, and photographers. The spit’s ninety-six-kilometer-long strip of sand dunes was once part of East Prussia and today belongs to Russia and Lithuania. The exhibition, the fourth in the "100 years of bauhaus" series, showcases the photographic work of the Lithuanian amber collector and photographer Kazimieras Mizgiris (b. 1950). Based in Nida, the artist’s intimate knowledge of sand-dune formations on the Curonian Spit is unrivalled. For decades, he has visited the drifting dunes of the "Baltic Sahara"—located just outside his front door—with his camera early in the morning, primarily in spring and autumn. His images of bizarre formations recalling prehistoric animals, produced by the interplay of wind, sand, and ice, are unique given the short-lived nature of the formations. Created in the spring when frozen water in the sand thaws, they leave behind icy sand-stelea that melt over the course of the day in the sunlight, crumble in the wind, and finally collapse. These are presented alongside Alfred Ehrhardt’s abstract photographs of the Curonian Spit from 1934, which, in contrast to Mizgiris’s images, evince the strict formal vocabulary of a structuralist trained at the Bauhaus in Dessau. As his 1938 book "Die Kurische Nehrung" (The Curonian Spit) describes, his intention was less about "portraying a 'beautiful' landscape, than it was tapping into the vastness of a still-pristine and primeval landscape. [...] The clarity of nature’s crystalline, formal language has always been man’s greatest teacher." | |

| Cowboy Kate Bicycle on Boardwalk, 1963 © The Sam Haskins Estate, courtesy of Atlas Gallery | | Sam Haskins » Cowboy Kate & Other Stories | | 19 September – 16 November 2019 | | PRIVATE VIEW: Wednesday 18 September 2019, 6.30 – 8.30 | | | | | | | | ‘Once upon a time was Kate. She was white as flowers, warm as sun-shine, wild as whiskey and swinging like a lamp.’ – Desmond Skirrow Atlas Gallery is pleased to present a selection of cinematic black and white prints from the historic photobook Cowboy Kate & Other Stories (1964) shot by South African-British photographer Sam Haskins and exhibited for the first time. Haskins and his wife Alida dreamt up the spirited Cowboy Kate tale after a model playfully posed in Haskins’ studio with her own black suede hat. Haskins’ dynamic photographs tell the tale of Kate’s youthful adventures fighting for justice in the Old West as she leaps lightly from page to page with a spring in her step. | |

| Installation view © LE BAL / Mathieu Samadet | | Sigmar Polke » Les infamies | | 13 September – 22 December, 2019 | | | | | | | | Le Bal presents a unique ensemble of photographs by Sigmar Polke dating from the 170s, an eblematic period featuring the artist's first jubilant experiments (double exposure, floutage, solarisation, Superposition...) They reveal Polke as an alchemist of photographic material, poet of almost nothing, free from the rules of the medium and fierce chronicler of his time. «MY ART IS LIKE A BUSH PRUNED BY PREJUDICE - DESPITE IT ALL WE GROW, EVEN BETTER. AND NOT ONLY DO WE PROLIFERATE UPWARDS, BUT ALSO DOWNWARDS.» SIGMAR POLKE "Untitled" was the name Sigmar Polke chose for his exhibition in 1986 at the Schelma Gallery. One could describe just as tersely and categorically the entire body of photographs presented in this book and the exhibition it accompanies: hundreds of untitled, undated prints. Shots that remained over the years in a chest in the house of Georg, Sigmar Polke’s son, and had long since been forgotten. (Fritz Emslander, co-curator, Deputy director of the Museum Morsbroich, Leverkusen) Polke used the photographic medium early on, as both a documentary source for his paintings and as a means in itself. There is a reciprocal contamination of the two practices in Polke’s work, so much so that it is just as possible to evoke the photographic dimension of his painting as it is to speak of the pictorial dimension of his photography. His approach to photography was, from the beginning, that of an amateur craftsman. Polke always developed and printed his photographs himself, irrespective of the rules (not heeding to correct times of exposure and using out-of-date paper and chemicals), flippantly practising under- and over-exposure as well as double-exposure. There is no hierarchy in these… | |

Through immaculate, large-scale photocompositions, 3D simulated videos and insightful texts by some of the most important luminaries in the field, Najjar takes a complex and critical look at the technological forces that are transforming our relationship with the galaxy in the 21st Century. Michael Najjar‘s "Outer Space" series examines the latest international developments in space exploration and the way that these advancements have and continue to shape our future life on earth and beyond. This 8-year project has brought Najjar to the far reaches of the earth’s atmosphere and, by this time next year, he will have been the first artist to physically venture into outer space with the commercial spacecraft, Virgin Galactic. | |

The exhibition will be opened on 13 September, while simultaneously the annual moon festival called "Tsukimi" takes place in Japan. This ancient Japanese tradition, which translates into "moon viewing", goes back to the 8th century. Planned on the same date, the "Moon Show" will bring two unique photographic positions together. United by a common subject, but with a very different concept of visual imagery, the authors play with our "perception of images" in an age of fake news and alternative facts. The spatial installation and presentation of the photographs create a state of suspense between fact and fiction, forming a field of magical tension. Fascinating photographic interpretations of William Turner and Caspar David Friedrich paintings meet mysterious black and white photographs of unknown moons, whose origins and provenance can’t be traced back without in-depth research: "Alternative Moons". A selection of the two series mentioned above will be featured at Galerie Clairefontaine, Espace 1. | |

The title is a phrase of English invention that has long been mistakenly cited as an ancient Chinese curse that invokes periods of uncertainty, crisis and turmoil; "interesting times", exactly as the ones we live in today. The 58th Exhibition is curated by Ralph Rugoff, currently the director of the Hayward Gallery in London. Between 1985 and 2002 he wrote art and cultural criticism for numerous periodicals, publishing widely in art magazines as well as newspapers, and published a collection of essays, Circus Americanus (1995). During the same period he began working as an independent curator. The Exhibition will also include 90 National Participations in the historic Pavilions at the Giardini, at the Arsenale and in the historic city centre of Venice. Four countries will be participating for the first time at the Biennale Arte: Ghana, Madagascar, Malaysia and Pakistan. The Dominican Republic exhibits for the first time at the Biennale Arte with its own national pavilion. | |
