| | | | | | | | | 26 October – 1 December 2017 | | | | Opening reception: Thursday 26 October 17:30 | | |  | | | | | | | | | | Kahmann Gallery and X BANK Amsterdam proudly present the new photographic series by Dutch artist Casper Faassen (1975), inspired by the most famous Dutch Master of all: Rembrandt van Rijn. Last spring, Faassen was given the opportunity to temporarily work in the 17th century studio of Jacob van Swanenburg, where 15-year-old Rembrandt van Rijn got his first painting lessons some 400 years ago. The studio proved to be a tremendous source of inspiration for Faassen, who, as a child, developed his passion for art after a visit to Rembrandt’s The Night Watch. Unsurprisingly, the spirit of the Old Master found his way into Faassen’s new work: a series of beautifully crafted portraits, Rembrandt’s own favorite genre. The works consist of transparent photographic layers that allow us to see the details photographed close to the glass, while keeping the rest of the image at a distance - leaving it to the imagination. This technique is inspired by the method of Rembrandt himself, who constructed his paintings with rough brush strokes, only to strategically highlight some details with finer techniques, creating a sense of total control. This series will premiere at X BANK Amsterdam, which will open on Thursday, October 26th. Please join us for the event and RSVP via the link below.

French curator François Hébel, former director of Les Rencontres d’Arles, curates the show. The exhibition clues the friendship between the two artists, who have been cultivating in different areas but are intertwined, and their artistic exchange from 1994 to 2001. The exhibition features over 10 different series such as “Wander”, “Square”, "Silver Beach" by Huang Rui and “Ruins”, “Fragments”, “Wedding Gown" by RongRong. Most of these photo series or photo-installations are presented for the first time to the public. | | |

In assembling hints and fragments from everyday perception where the individual parts become pieces of a greater puzzle, the exhibition aims to find images that illustrate today’s increasingly abstract and elusive forms of value creation. "All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned," says the Communist Manifesto. In relation to this quotation, the question is asked in what form the substances which were melted into air through the great onslaught of modernity, crystallize and manifest themselves in the present. There is indeed a lot of smoke in the air, indicitative of the hard facts of this contemporary moment: fine dust, tear gas, carbon dioxide. And haven't the materialistic and indeed profane objects of today’s capitalism now been given the same status as the once sacred had? Doesn't the almost dogmatic belief in perpetual growth hold a kind of sacred status in today’s western societies? Each new cycle of "creative destruction," each exploitation of common properties, results in a new spatial and material constellation, a visible phenomenon, which can also be seen in the restructuring and the expulsions in the urban sphere. What do they look like, the new Haussmann boulevards, the new Crystal Palaces and the new panoptic prisons? What are the new factories where human relationships are converted into bitcoins? In what kind of scenarios does modernization take place in different geographic and political spaces? The exhibition presents insights into the promises and abysses of this modernity, exploring … | | |

Rio Negro-2, Brazil, 1998
C-Print, 187 x 237 cm
© Axel Hütte | | | | | | | | until 14 January 2018 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Museum Kunstpalast, Düsseldorf, is presenting 70 day and night pictures, spanning a period of more than 20 years, from the artistic oeuvre of Axel Hütte (*1951), including a number of new works and works that have never been shown publicly before. Axel Hütte, who for a long time has been regarded as a master of contemporary landscape photography, was a student in the famous Bernd Becher class at the Academy of Art in Düsseldorf, as were Andreas Gursky, Thomas Struth, Thomas Ruff and Candida Höfer. Together they rank among the important, internationally renowned representatives of the Düsseldorf School of Photography. The comprehensive exhibition of the Düsseldorf-based photographer, who to this day travels to all continents for his fascinating photographs, impressively reflects his interest in the perception of the picture, of representation and reality. Axel Hütte’s photographs surprise us with pictorial structures that place his work beyond the documentary. With water reflections, the dark of the night, but also with vertical or horizontal elements of architecture he composes atmospheric pictorial worlds. Making use of the blurring created by wafts of fog, and of structures found in bridge architecture, he creates both perspectival and atmospheric landscape pictures. Hütte’s photographs are characterised by a profound stillness, by an overwhelming sense of loneliness. The process of creating his pictures, which he takes using a plate camera, usually makes considerable demands on his patience. In photographs from the African desert, the Antarctic Sea, or in his nocturnal pictures of metropolises – Axel Hütte shows moments of astonishment and contemplation, inviting the visi… | | |

| | | Bar Interior, 1985 © Greg Girard | | | Greg Girard » HK:PM [Hong Kong Nightlife 1974-1989] | | | | 27 October – 12 November 2017 | | | | Opening reception: Friday 27 October 18:00 | | | | | | | | | | | | | HK:PM is an exhibition of photographs of Greg Girard's nocturnal wanderings in Hong Kong made between 1974 and 1986. The exhibition also marks the release of the book of the same title, published by Asia One. HK:PM takes you through the neon lit streets and into tattoo parlours, dive bars and the hotel rooms of soldiers and sailors who frequented them. Other scenes depict the pre-dawn emptiness of the city’s streets and alleys bathed in the colours of artificial light. With a foreword by award winning Hong Kong director Ann Hui, HK:PM adds a missing photographic link to the visual record of Hong Kong in the 1970s and 80s. This is Girard’s first solo show in Hong Kong since 2008 and the first time these early photographs are collected and displayed as a dedicated body of work. Girard, a respected Canadian photographer, whose work has examined the social and physical transformations in Asia's largest cities for over 30 years, is also co-author with Ian Lambot of the seminal book “City of Darkness”, the definitive record Hong Kong’s infamous Kowloon Walled City, and its updated re-release “City of Darkness Revisited”. Other titles include “Phantom Shanghai” listed as one of the top 10 photography books of all time by The Independent (UK), “Hanoi Calling” and, earlier this year, “Under Vancouver 1972-1982” and “Hotel Okinawa”. The book HK:PM will be available during Greg Girard’s exhibition at PMQ [#507s] 27 October to 12 November 2017. Limited edition prints and books will be available during the exhibition. | | |

| | | Distaff.07, 2017. © Juana Gómez, courtesy Isabel Croxatto Galería | | | | | | | | 2 November - 22 December 2017 | | | | | | | | | | | | | “We are so addicted to patterns that we let them sneak into almost everything we do. Moreover, these patterns are the key to predicting many aspects of our behavior, even the darkest parts of our nature. “
Chilean artist Juana Gómez’s hand embroidered photographic canvases combine the spheres of scientific exploration with ancestral tradition. Weaving complex scientific and mythological patterns onto images of both her own and her daughters’ bodies, her work is interested in placing mankind within a broader context of interconnectivity. Rather than seeing us as individuals, dethatched from one another and the world around us, Gómez positions us as part of an ancient chain that goes back to the origin of life: a combination of patterns, molecules and small organisms. | | |

© Jean-Marie Périer / Photo12 | | | | | | | | until 3 December 2017 | | | | | | | | | | | | | The exhibition of Jean-Marie Périer, master of the French photographic scene will be among first projects opening the new art season at The Lumiere Brothers Center for Photography. Author of the outstanding portraits of the celebrities from the world of music, cinema and fashion Périer worked for the best-known magazines and brands and created a striking portrait series of the XX century luminaries. The key series presented at the exhibition is called «The World of Fashion Designers» and was created by Périer in the 1990’s. It includes photographs of the famous designers Yves Saint Laurent, Jean-Paul Gaultier, John Galliano, Vivienne Westwood, Kenzō Takada and has been produced for the ELLE magazine. This series of photographs best exemplifies the amazing attention the author shows to detail. Jean-Marie displays the meticulous eye of a couturier while forming every image and creating an ingenious portraiture collection. | | |

| | | I due bagnanti, 2016 © Paolo Ventura. Courtesy of the artist and Edwynn Houk Gallery, New York | | | | | | | | until 11 November 2017 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Paolo Ventura, born in Milan in 1968, grew up with storytellers. His father was a popular author of children’s books, while his grandmother told memorable tales of living in the Italian countryside during World War II. Ventura has developed his own inventive approach to narrative, blending two forms of storytelling—one inspired by historical events and the other entirely fictive—with a creative technical approach that has earned him widespread recognition. Each of Ventura’s photographs involves multiple steps. The process includes building and painting simple sets, dressing and directing actors, and combining photographs of the two in a unique topographic reality. Lovers, soldiers, and jesters are some of the recurring characters, often played by family members, including his twin brother, son, wife, and himself. In this present exhibition, Ventura collages and hand-paints over every image. The resulting tableaus engage each other in dialogue, but each exists as its own imaginative world. Ventura’s work is characterized by a delicate and complex balance. His images are photographic yet appear painterly; familiar yet dream-like; historical yet modern. Even his artistic inspirations, which are as varied as surrealist painting and Neorealist cinema, find equilibrium in his work. Most importantly, Ventura’s sense of genuine curiosity is contagious. When Ventura hears a story, he is known to exclaim with excitement, “No way! Really?”, as curator Bill Hunt wrote in an essay on Ventura’s work for Aperture Magazine. His photographs invite viewers to share in this spirit of discovery. Seen collectively, the series of images loosely tells a story, as if the artist is drifting from dream to dream, enveloped in the theatrical sets of his own imagination. Ventura’s work has been exhibited in museums and private galleries worldwide, including at the Italian Pavilion of the 2011 Venice Biennale. Solo exhibitions include Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna, Rome; The Hague Museum of Photography; Halsey Institute of Contemporary Art, Charleston, SC; and MACRO Museum of Contemporary Art, Rome. His work is included in notable public collections including the Boston Museum of Fine Arts; the Lowe Art Museum, Miami; and the Museum Het Valkhof, Nijmegen, The Netherlands. | | |

| | Thierry Cohen, from the series Carbon catchers, 2017
Pigment print, 44 x 66 cm, edition of 7
© Thierry Cohen, Courtesy Galerie Esther Woerdehoff | | | | | | | | | | 25 October – 25 November 2017 | | | | | | | | | | | | | This autumn, the BnF (the French national Library) will hold a major exhibition, Paysage francais, une aventure photographique, 1984-2017, where two photographers of the gallery will show their works. Xavier Dauny, with his series Pylônes, methodically explores our environment and the traces left by human on the natural landscape. Guillaume Martial, who won the HSBC Prize in 2015, exposes Parade, a series realized within the mission France(s) Territoire liquide, where the photographer animates the urban environment with an applied humor.
Upon invitation by the BnF, we wish to extend this subject of landscape with a collective exhibition of our artists at the gallery. Rather than a documentary vision of the landscape, their works offer an imaginary geography, born in the real world but metamorphosed by the camera, the printing or post-processing: a reality reinvented by photography. Gregor Beltzig traveled to Armenia, his notebook pages where handwriting mingle with photographs and his souvenirs of the Silk Road in Fresson prints reveal a poetic vision of the world. Following the approach of his fascinating Darkened Cities, Thierry Cohen presents his new series in exclusivity and plunges the forest under the stars. Xavier Dauny, exhibited at the BnF, shows his series Domaines skiables at the gallery. Sabine Guédamour follows the Doubs river from its source to the Saône; more than the river, she describes the nature that surrounds it, the passing of seasons and the tenuous relationship between humans and water. Aiming towards new dimensions, Iris Hutegger presents her latest works, these photographs of mountain landscapes embroidered with colors and emotions. Jens Knigge, a master of the ancient process of platinum-palladium, captures the rough landscapes of Iceland in miniature views and sublime shades of gray. Olivier Mériel amazed at the landscapes of his native Normandy, photographs the city, the coast and elds with a large-format camera and handprint them in the dark room. With contrast and sharpness, his photographs praise time, shadows, and light. Jacques Pugin, in echo to the date of the first DATAR mission, exhibits his Graffiti rouges, a series of landscapes realized in 1984 by this precursor of light painting and printed with the Fresson process. Last but not least, Nikolas Tantsoukes, inspired by Dada, creates unique collages. Collecting images from old magazines, he composes surrealistic landscapes where a modern city is placed under the nave of a church or an alpine landscape in the ballroom of a Bavarian palace. | | |

| | | Becoming South Sudan Chapter I: Portraits Chief, 2011 © Alinka Echeverría / Courtesy Ravestijn Gallery Amsterdam | | | | | | | | 27 October 2017 – 27 January 2018 | | | | Opening reception: Thursday 26 October 18:00 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Alinka's epic series 'Becoming South Sudan', first shown in part at Art Paris 2017, is a work in which the artist arrests South Sudan's transition to Independence in 2011, becoming the world's 193rd nation. Prior to the South's independence, forty years of internal conflicts and two protracted civil wars had permeated the history of the country. Regardless, the world's newest nation remains in shambles, en masse. This is the first time that the full series, all three chapters, will be on show in Europe. Alinka's work was recently selected for FOAM Museum's talent award and exhibition in 2017 with the research project she made during BMW's Art & Culture Residency at the Nicéphore Niépce Museum in 2015. In 2012 she was voted ‘International Photographer of the Year’ by the Lucie Awards with her work from South Sudan, and in 2011 won the HSBC Prize for Photography with work from Mexico. Her work has been widely exhibited at international venues, including La Maison European de la Photographie in Paris, the National Portrait Gallery in London, the Moscow Photobiennale, as well as solo exhibitions at the Johannesburg Art Gallery, Les Rencontres de la Photographie Arles and The California Museum of Photography. Her work is part of several public and institutional collections including The Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Musée Nicéphore Niépce in France, BMW Art & Culture Collection and The Museum of Fine Arts in Houston. Recent commissions include the Swiss Foundation of Photography and BBC Four. | | |

| | | Dalseong, Daegu, Korea, 2012 ©Woongu KANG | | | | | | | | until 25 November 2017 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A few years ago, KANG Woongu concluded that he has fulfilled his “compulsory service” as a photographer in this world. Ever since, he says, he has been having more fun with photography. His ensuing works could be viewed as aftershock tremors. His thoughts, experienced and accumulated over a long period, permeate the photography of KANG’s late years. His later work, therefore, is just as notable as what came before. Since 1962, KANG has shown his work at numerous exhibitions at home and abroad. By lifting the burden of Western theories of photography and developing an indigenous visual language, he has pioneered photojournalism and auteurist photography in Korea. KANG refers to himself as a “photographer working exclusively to meet domestic demand.” His artistic inquiries indeed reflect this perspective, which would also contain his message, against the current overflow of photographic works stripped of a sense of identity in the name of “internationalization” and “globalization,” of resistance. | | |

In cooperation with Daniel Blochwitz, this curated gallery show will present works from René Groebli’s lifelong career. Aside from his legendary early works, like "The Eye of Love" or "Rail Magic", there will be on display his experimental and ground-breaking images of movement, color and crossfade-effects. Also shown will be his lesser known or even forgotten works, such as his series from Ireland or New York from the late 1970’s. The mix and juxtaposition of photographs taken over a period of more than six decades—with some of them presented as rare vintage prints—will provide a unique insight into René Groebli’s artistic oeuvre, underlining once again his singular position within Switzerland’s history of photography. | | |

From 22 October - 26 November 2017, the 24th edition of the Noorderlicht International Photography Festival will take place. During ‘NUCLEUS, imagining science’ work of 74 photographers from 26 countries can be seen at seven locations in Groningen, Eelde and Assen.
Tribute to human ingenuity
NUCLEUS is about science and the representation of it by independent photographers and artists. In response to social developments, more and more artists use science in their research and as a source of inspiration. Science and art form a fertile combination after all. Both disciplines work from an investigative urge, with curiosity, originality, creativity and an open mind as fundamental principles. In NUCLEUS, the photographers tell their stories about science and the representation of it in around 700 images. It is the first time a collaboration from Noorderlicht will occur with KINK in Assen and Museum De Buitenplaats in Eelde.

www.fotomexicofestival.com.mx | | | | | | | | | | | | | FOTOMÉXICO 2017, the International Photography Festival is a space for creativity, a reference in the reflection and dialogue about national and international photographic production, a diverse expression of the vitality, relevance, and strength of this medium and its creators. From October to December, under the coordination of the Centro de la Imagen, FOTOMÉXICO 2017 is a forum open to the diverse and multiple works of our photographic creators. It is a meeting place for the photography community with venues in museums, galleries, and exhibition spaces that also join the Foto México Network’s initiatives. Dedicated to theme of "Latitudes", this second edition of the festival offers plural, geographic, anthropological, and multidisciplinary perspectives, with exhibitions by renowned artists from Mexico, Brasil, Chile, France, Brasil, United States, Argentina, Peru, Spain, France, Germany, Scandinavia, India, Japan, South Africa, Mali and Nigeria, among others.

| | Michael Najjar: "europa", 2015
hybrid photography, archival pigment print, diasec, custom-made aluminium frame
© Michael Najjar, Courtesy the artist | | | Clouds ⇄ Forests | | | | 7th Moscow International Biennale of Contemporary Art | | | | | | | – 18 January 2018 | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 7th Moscow International Biennale of Contemporary Art takes place in the New Tretyakov Gallery (The State Tretyakov Gallery, 10, Krymsky Val, Moscow) from 19 September 2017 to 18 January 2018. The Main Project Clouds⇄Forests is curated by Yuko Hasegawa - one of the leading curators in the international art world - and includes 52 artists from 25 countries. The concept of Clouds⇄Forests focuses on a new eco-system formed through the circulation of "Cloud Tribes" born on the Internet cloud space, and "Forest Tribes" born in an analogue world. Works of the artists in the Main Project are displayed in dialogue with works from the permanent exhibition of The State Tretyakov Gallery. Michael Najjar » has been invited to participate in the Biennale with several large-scale artworks from his celebrated "outer space" series. On view for the first time will be his "liquid time" triptych, created especially for the Biennale. This work highlights the fragility of our ecological balance and the significance of the change of state from ice to water because glaciers are storehouses of time - layer on layer they capture the air, water and oxygen of countless thousands of years. The picture was taken in early 2017 in an ice cave under the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier in Iceland.
Also on view, in the All-Russian State Library, will be Michael Najjar´s striking new video artwork "terraforming". The work focuses on transformation of a natural environment through energy input and combines footage taken on various locations in Iceland in early 2017 with Martian landscapes shot by NASA´s Curiosity Mars rover. | | |
