The exhibition is part of the European Month of Photography Berlin 2025. | | | | | | | | | | | | | After more than five years of forced labor in the coal mines of the Soviet labor camp Vorkuta, Lothar Wolleh (1930–1979) returned to Berlin as a free man in January 1956. Among his belongings were a few pictures secretly created during his imprisonment in the Gulag.
It was precisely in this inhospitable place north of the Arctic Circle, just a few kilometres from the Polarwolf camp where Alexei Navalny died, that Wolleh experienced light as an "elixir of life" and as a medium of presence and absence. The camera as a "light catcher" became an instrument that enabled him to make the invisible visible.
During the Cold War, Wolleh travelled once again to the Soviet Union. The exhibition presents the photographs from his imprisonment and juxtaposes them with portraits of people from all across the Soviet Union. They remind us that individual humanity remains alive even in times of the greatest hostility and must be made visible in order to overcome what divides us. | | |

Heinz Hajek-Halke's Photomontages & New Image-Makers | | | | | | | 1 March - 3 May 2025 | | | Opening: Friday, 28 February, 7 – 9 pm
An exhibition organised as part of the EMOP Berlin – European Month of Photography 2025.
Curated by Mathilde Leroy
Special opening hours during EMOP-Opening Days: Sunday, 2 March, 1 – 6 pm | | | | | | | | | | | | | To mark the 100th anniversary of Heinz Hajek-Halke's first photomontages, the group exhibition "Metamorphosis" celebrates the Berlin artist's early work (1925 - 1935), rediscovers it and brings it together with works from a range of contemporary photomontage and collage artists.
Heinz Hajek-Halke (1898 - 1983) is an important photographic artist of the 20th century. While he explored the boundaries of the photographic medium in a completely new way in his abstract, camera-less works of the 1950s and 1960s, his photographic experiments coincided with the beginning of his career.
In 1924, a few years after completing his art and graphics studies in Berlin, he taught himself photography. From this point onwards, he worked as a press photographer for various agencies and was especially enthusiastic about experimental work in the darkroom. Between 1925 and 1931, he specialised in photomontage. Inspired by the aesthetics and special effects of silent film, Hajek-Halke set out in search of new visual forms and, during this period of intensive experimentation, explored complex techniques such as capturing a sequence of movements on a plate, the multiple exposure of several negatives in the enlarger or in the camera as well as the photo collage. By combining images from different contexts, he succeeded in creating dynamic compositions with a new meaning that drew on the montages of the surrealist avant-garde.
His iconic photomontages, which he designed freely or published in the illustrated press and as part of adverts, date from this period. A selection of vintage prints from the years 1925 to 1935, famous and rare works from the Heinz Hajek-Halke Collection, can be discovered in the exhibition. These unreal images, which were pa… | | |

| | | Installation de l’exposition “The Family of Man” au Château de Clervaux © CNA/Romain Girtgen, 2021 | | | | | | | UNESCO Memory of the World | | | | | | | | Reopening: 1 March – 29 December 2025 | | | | open Wednesday to Sunday from 12 to 6 p.m. | | | | | | | | | | | | | Presented for the first time in 1955, the exhibition was meant as a manifesto for peace and the fundamental equality of mankind, expressed through the humanist photography of the post-war years. Images by artists such as Robert Capa, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Dorothea Lange, Robert Doisneau, August Sander and Ansel Adams were staged in a modernist and spectacular manner.
Having toured the globe and been displayed in over 150 museums worldwide, the last, complete version of the exhibition was permanently installed in Clervaux Castle in 1994. Since its creation, The Family of Man has attracted over 10 million visitors and entered the history of photography as a legendary exhibition. In 2003, the collection was inscribed in the UNESCO Memory of the World register.
Today, the restored collection is accessible to the public as a permanent exhibition at Clervaux Castle.

Founded in 2008 by the Pictet Group, the goal of the award is harnessing the power of photography to draw attention to the critical issue of global sustainability. To date, there have been ten cycles of the award, each with its own theme highlighting a particular aspect of sustainability. This will be the ninth year that Prix Pictet has toured to Photo Museum Ireland.
The current cycle, Prix Pictet Human, showcases the work of twelve outstanding photographers shortlisted for the award. Their work constitutes a powerful exploration of the various facets of the theme Human. In their own unique way, each of the shortlisted photographers explores our shared humanity and the vast spectrum of our interactions with the world. The shortlisted portfolios span documentary, portraiture, landscape, and studies of light and process, and explore issues ranging from the plight of Indigenous peoples, conflict, childhood, the collapse of economic processes, to the traces of human habitation and industrial development, gang violence, border lands, and migration. Their work evaluates our role as stewards of the planet and sheds light on the critical issues of global sustainability, the central concern of the Prix Pictet since its inception fifteen years ago. | | |

in the presence of Wolfgang Stahr | | | | | | | | | | | | | "Many of Wolfgang Stahr's cityscapes are closer to painting than photography; some, with their vast areas and precisely placed color accents, evoke Color Field painting, while many others resemble the works of de Chirico and Edward Hopper: the surreal, early light breathes a spell into the streets."
— Niklas Maak
Having relocated from Berlin to Frankfurt in 2020, at the onset of the pandemic, Wolfgang Stahr wandered the city with a keen, observant eye. His photographs, often devoid of people, capture the city’s streetscapes, urban spaces, and architectural nuances in a way that feels both intimate and unfamiliar. Together, the works create a vivid portrait of the city, revealing its pulse and providing new insights into what might otherwise seem familiar.
Wolfgang Stahr (b. 1969) grew up in Munich and studied at the University of Applied Sciences in Bielefeld. After spending more than two decades in Berlin, he relocated to Frankfurt. His work focuses on portraits, interiors, and the relationships between people and their environments. Stahr’s photographs are regularly featured in international magazines and have been exhibited in galleries and institutions, earning him numerous accolades, including the Grand Prix Européen de la Ville de Vevey. | | |

In this series of performances, he was aiming to envelope his audience in sensations, to stimulate and challenge sight, smell and sound as much as possible." – Fergus Greer
To celebrate the opening of Leigh Bowery! At Tate Modern, Michael Hoppen Gallery are delighted to announce an exhibition of portraits by photographer Fergus Greer, shot over the course of his six-year relationship with Bowery. Renowned for his performances, which blended design, dance, music and club culture, these photographs reveal Bowery’s creative vision at its most forcefully iconic. The show will include a selection of early vintage silver gelatin prints from 1988-1994; shown alongside large colour works.
The photographs illustrate perfectly Bowery’s extraordinary performance and costumes and whilst they are isolated in the studio they were shot in, away from the vibrant London he inhabited, it is only by studying these recorded details that we are able to fully appreciate what an extraordinary human being Leigh Bowery really was. | | |

Courtesy Les Douches la Galerie, Paris | | | | | | | | ... until 5 April 2025 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Les Douches la Galerie is delighted to present Voyages en Italie, a new exhibition dedicated to Hervé Guibert. Through portraits of his friends, his lovers, and still lifes of intimate objects, made between 1979 and 1990, the exhibition shows the central role Italy played in the journey of the writer-photographer, both as a source of aesthetic inspiration and as a realm of creativity.
Hervé Guibert was a writer. Hervé Guibert was a photographer. Between the two, the connection is powerful and the result delightful. When a phrase strikes in one of his books, it flutters into an image. When a whimsical humor shakes a sentence, it ripples through a photograph. When melancholy appears in the title of a novel (Le mausolée des amants [The Mausoleum of Lovers]), it resurfaces in the caption of a photo (Le depart [The Departure]). The exhibition of Hervé Guibert’s Italian photographs uniquely illustrates this incessant interplay. Here and there, he wrote about Italy, and like a companion who never lets go of his hand, his photographic journey is of a twin nature: an echo, a stereophony, without ever being able to pinpoint the origin of its music. | | |

More information: art-authenticity-photography-retreat | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Art & Authenticity Photography Retreat is a one-week full-immersion workshop for female photographers held each spring in the heart of Tuscany and designed to clarify and strengthen your practice.
Set in a remote hamlet of Chiusdino, Tuscany, The Art & Authenticity Photography Retreat is for female photographers interested in intensifying their practice in a focused, regenerative setting — in an idyllic location, close to nature, free from urban noise and shared with a small community of fellow photographers.
The Art & Authenticity Photography Retreat will be held May 17-24, 2025.
The Retreat mentors look forward to drawing on 20+ years of knowledge, trials, victories, and lessons learned to help you crystallize your expression, sharpen your visual language and lift your project to the next level.
THE RETREAT
Authenticity is the degree to which an individual's actions are congruent with their beliefs and desires, despite external pressures. The Art & Authenticity Photography Retreat is designed to help participants recalibrate their practice in alignment with this idea — help them attune their work with their artistic integrity, develop their artistic core, and lay a solid foundation on which to build forward.
Through a week’s worth of analyses, exercises, photography assignments, reflection and shared inspiration, The Art & Authenticity Photography Retreat aims to help you achieve a greater level of authenticity in your work while at the same time achieving greater maturity in your projects. The Retreat is a chance to understand how photography serves you and to venture new approaches that may strengthen your practice. It is also a chance to take a break from everyday responsibilities and embark on a personal journey — A week just for you.
The Art & Authenticity Photography Retreat is a ‘photograph and reflect' workshop. It is neither a technical course nor a portfolio review. It is a unique combination of analysing your existing work or project, engaging through assignments, and reflecting in a constructive, empowering way - reflecting on your strengths, possible improvements, and future goals.
Because it is a communal experience, The Art & Authenticity Photography Retreat builds on mutual support, shared analyses and the intelligence of the group.
Ultimately, The Art & Authenticity Photography Retreat is about strengthening your resilience — as a photographer, as a person, as a woman — so that you may make convincing work that is aligned with your values and immune to external pressure. | | |
