| © Wang Guofeng, IDEALITY No.10 (Beijing Hotel), Photography, 431×130cm, 2007 | | WANG Guofeng » How to connect our memories? | | 21 March – 4 May 2019 | | | | | | | | Gingko Space is pleased to announce artist Wang Guofeng’s solo exhibition, How to connect our memories?, opening on March 21, 2019, during "Gallery Weekend Beijing". This exhibition marks the artist's first presentation at Ginkgo space, showing Wang Guofeng’s two ongoing series of photographs from the last decade. The exhibition will be on view until May 4th. Since 2006, Wang Guofeng has been working on these two series of photographs, Ideal and Utopia based on historical sites and architectures remnants from China, the former Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, and other former socialist states. Both series present large-scale and monumental architectures that initially were aimed at propagating ideologies and national wills at specific moments in the history of humanity. These large-scale and spectacular architectures are as much the embodiments of power and ideology as they are spatial installations in the spectacles of power. Wang Guofeng isolates these objectified spectacles from history in his reinvestigations of them, and transforms them into bewildering compositions with the naked eye in order to emphasize on their implicit meanings. These spectacles are endowed with traces of time, as well as shapes of ideology. They are both physical and symbolic. Wang Guofeng conceives the frontal shots of these architectures as the objects of his gaze, and through his precise portrayal, Wang probes the representation of national will within aesthetics and spatial domains. | |

| Bei Kublank (2016), 35 x 40 cm, C-Print, Ed. of 8 + 2 AP © Hans-Christian Schink | | Hans-Christian Schink » Hinterland | | 23 March – 4 May 2019 | | Opening: Friday 22 March 2019, 7pm | | | | | | | | Hans-Christian Schink, born in Erfurt in 1961, studied at the Academy of Visual Arts in Leipzig. He is considered one of the most important representatives of contemporary photography in Germany. His works, mostly landscape studies in the field of tension between nature and civilization, are exhibited internationally and can be found in important public and private collections. With "Hinterland" the gallery presents Schink’s latest body of work. "Hinterland means the sparsely populated areas off the big cities, in this series especially the remote regions of Brandenburg and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern," explains Hans-Christian Schink. "On the other hand, the title Hinterland also refers to the imaginary landscapes that emerge from my memory. Landscapes that I know from my childhood." And he goes on: "So this series is not about portraying concrete places. My pictures are more the result of a search without a destination." In his project, Hans-Christian Schink tries to keep a balance of showing the brittle beauty of this form of landscape whilst transporting an atmosphere of melancholy, which stems from the endangerment of this landscape caused by the permanent exploitation of its resources. | |

| A Single Mother at an Address, which is Falsely Used to Claim Residency, Bradford, 1978 Vintage Gelatin silver print 7 x 10 1/2 in. (18 x 27 cm.) © Don McCullin | | Don McCullin » PROXIMITY | | until 24 April 2019 | | | | | | | | To coincide with the major retrospective at Tate Britain (until 6 MAY 2019), Hamiltons will be celebrating Sir Don McCullin’s lifetime achievement by exhibiting rare and unseen vintage prints dating back to the 1950s. Selected from the photographer’s personal archive, they were made shortly after the photographs were first taken on assignments around the world. Intimate and physically modest, the prints provide access to events witnessed and recorded by a photojournalist working on the frontline of multiple, international flashpoints from Vietnam to Cyprus. Largely produced for a photo editor or agency in a pre-digital age, these historic prints have been visibly put to work and bear the physical marks of their use. In these pictures McCullin shares the telling details of a human face or the gestures of a hand. As he earns his subjects’ trust, he communicates their crisis. To comprehend each remarkable scene, the viewer is pulled in tight as if we are standing beside McCullin in proximity to an anxious soldier, a pointed gun or a grieving wife. tate.org.uk/donmccullin | |

Foam Talent Panel Discussion: Saturday March 23, 2:30 – 4:30 pm RSVP here! | | | | | | | | For the 3rd year Foam returns to Red Hook Labs in Brooklyn, New York to present Foam Talent; a group exhibition bringing together a new generation of international artists. Selected through the annual Foam Talent Call the twenty image-makers presented in this exhibition represent a cross section of the wide array of subjects and techniques that are being explored by today’s artists working with photography. The annual Foam Talent Call is an international search for exceptionally talented photographers under the age of 35. For this twelfth edition, a total of 1.853 artists from 74 different countries submitted their portfolios. The twenty selected photographers give us insight into the state of contemporary photography. This generation crosses the borders of the photographic medium with remarkable ease; installations where the immersive quality of the work nowadays is as important as more traditional two-dimensional photography. In this digital age, there seems to be an increasing interest for geological time and the cycle of time expressed in projects around the themes of night fall, processing grief, nostalgia and homesickness. Archival material continues to play an important role, as well as complex and lengthy research in pervasive socio-political factors that influence our everyday life. Altogether the selected projects show us how essential authenticity, intrinsic quality and the visual power of expression are. By showing the work of this new generation of artists in a collective exhibition, Foam presents its views on the diverse – and often surprising – developments in contemporary photography, while creating a platform to introduce emerging talents internationally. | |

| Merry Alpern, Dirty Windows #5, 1994 (Detail) vintage silver gelatin print 50 x 40 cm / 20 x 16 in. © Merry Alpern courtesy Galerie Miranda | | Merry Alpern » Dirty Windows | | until 20 April 2019 | | | | | | | | GALERIE MIRANDA is very proud to announce its spring 2019 exhibition, ‘Dirty Windows' by American artist Merry Alpern (b. 1955, New York), in the artist’s first solo European exhibition of this both controversial and celebrated series. In the winter of 1993-94, photographer Merry Alpern visited a friend’s New York loft, situated in the Wall Street district. He led her to a back room and from his window, one floor below, she could see a tiny bathroom window from which pounded the heavy bass of nightclub music. She realized that she was looking into the bathroom of an illegal lap-dance club, where "stock-brokers and other well-to-do businessmen handed over hundreds of dollars and drugs to women in G-strings and black lace." Transfixed by the spectacle, the artist started taking pictures of what she saw, using a fast black and white film that gave the photos a peep-show quality. | |

These are just a few of the many extraordinary photography stories visitors to Derby will discover at FORMAT19. The new generation of photographic artists rush towards the new, embracing the rapid transformation that technology and cultural exchanges bring to it. It is such new approaches to photography that FORMAT19: FOREVER//NOW will address during the festival. Forever is an idea built into the very nature of the photograph that records the moment and immediately presents us with a visual memory of the past. Forever touches upon our obsession to record and share the continuous moments of our lives. Yet forever is an illusion and the immortality photography proffers can quickly sour when digital anonymity becomes virtually impossible to obtain. The eruption of selfies and Instagram is contradicted by campaigns around the right to be forgotten or opt out. Now is the new photography orthodoxy, in which the message is all, the product of an era that is seen as "post truth", regardless of whether it is a fictionalised story or a factual narrative or an aesthetic mixture of the two. The challenge for the photographer is how to establish their message in the now and stop it being transitory. In this era of Trump’s fake news, where truths, lies and myths are easily interchanged, we need to find a new structure to realign our perception of reality and provide a frame of reference for identifying where the truth really resides. FORMAT19 will look at how photography is evolving and moving ever forward, while keeping a curatorial eye on its past and how it is being constantly reinterpreted. Even as we endeavour to extend subjects through photography, time and material can never be endless, it is a difficult concept to pin down and the immortality that photography seems to offer is always just out of reach. Alongside the mass production of pictures and our seemingly endless desire to be seen, there are calls for digital anonymity and campaigns around the right to be forgotten or to opt out. FOREVER//NOW is a contested idea that we invite you to think widely about, there are many ways to perceive it. | |
