| | | | | | | | ... bis 12. Januar 2025 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Foam is thrilled to present the first large-scale retrospective of the Dutch fashion photographer and artist Viviane Sassen in the Netherlands. The exhibition PHOSPHOR: Art & Fashion, which comprises more than 200 works, reveals over thirty years of her multifaceted career bringing together photography, collage, painting and video. The exhibition serves a significant homecoming for Sassen, following her first museum showcase at Foam in 2008 titled Flamboya.
The Dutch contemporary artist Viviane Sassen rapidly gained worldwide recognition, both in the fashion industry and in the photography world. Her distinctive and eclectic visual oeuvre will fill almost the entire building of Foam. This exhibition will shed light on Sassen’s creative process by focusing on two main themes: the incessant search for new photographic forms and the importance of intimacy in her work.
The exhibition features iconic series, including Flamboya (2008), Umbra (2014) and Parasomnia (2011), along with unseen archives, mixed-media works that blend photography, painting, collage and video.
Sassen's fashion photography for brands such as Louis Vuitton and Dior will be presented in a monumental installation. Early experiments with objects from her personal archives, her initial self-portraits, and her final photo project from her studies illustrate the beginnings of Sassen's visual language. These images are being showcased for the first time in the exhibition PHOSPHOR: Art & Fashion.
Sassen's oeuvre explores both the depths of human emotion and the boundaries of artistic expression. Death, sexuality, desire and connection with others are all motifs that structure her work. Renowned for her adept u… | | |

| | | | | | | | ... until 14 December 2024 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Parallel to Anastasia Samoylova's major institutional exhibitions at the Metropolitan Museum in New York and the Saatchi Gallery in London, we are delighted to present her latest series, Image Cities, a photographic journey through some of the world's most prominent metropolises, including New York, Paris, London, Zurich, Tokyo, and Milan. The artist turns her camera towards the publicly visible images that shape the façades of these cities.
Rather than highlighting what makes these places unique, she reveals what they have in common: the menacing and gradual homogenization of consumer culture, emerging from a world increasingly dominated by corporations.
Anastasia Samoylova (1984) is an American artist who moves between observational photography, studio practice and installation. By utilizing tools related to digital media and commercial photography, her work explores notions of environmentalism, consumerism and the picturesque.
Her books FloodZone and Floridas: Anastasia Samoylova & Walker Evans were published by Steidl, her book Image Cities is out with Hatje Cantz. Her works have been presented in solo exhibitions at the Chrysler Museum of Art; Orlando Museum of Art; Contemporary Art Museum, Tampa; The Print Center Philadelphia, the Eastman Museum, Rochester, NY, C/O Berlin, Germany, and the KBr Fundación MAPFRE, Barcelona, Spain, among others.
Her work is in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Perez Art Museum, Miami; High Museum of Art, Atlanta; and Museum of Contemporary Photography, Chicago; among others.
Anastasia Samoylova was shortlisted for the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize 2022 and received the first KBr Photo Award by KBr Fundació… | | |

| | | Seescapes | | | | | | | 30 November 2024 – 27 April 2025 | | | | In a double presentation, the Museum Ludwig is showing newly acquired photographs by Alfred Ehrhardt (1901–1984) in dialogue with photographs by Elfriede Stegemeyer (1908–1988). Although the two photographers never met, they shared an interest in the subject matter of water, beaches, and sand for several years. | | | | | | | | | | | | | Alfred Ehrhardt studied painting with masters such as Paul Klee and Wassily Kandinsky at the Bauhaus in Dessau in 1928–29. Due to his modernist approach to art, he was dismissed from his teaching job at the Landeskunstschule Hamburg by the Nazis in 1933. Using a camera, he searched for structures and abstract forms in the sand dunes of the Curonian Spit and in the tidal flats of northern Germany, and discovered the sublime in details—his form of inner emigration. He was always intent on capturing the impact of Urkräfte, primordial forces, far away from civilization, as well as "the essential." Summing up his work in 1967, he wrote, "I wanted to convey the organic whole through one detail, which is only possible if with your choice of the detail you overcome the statics of outward appearance and grasp the dynamism of the object in terms of light and angle, making the whole come alive although you are only showing a detail. In photography there is nothing wrong about mentioning design. However, it is not a matter of optical gimmicks and tricks. Much more, it’s a fundamentally new way seeing that reveals to us the essential elements of things." Erhardt published his works in photography books such as Die Kurische Nehrung (The Curonian Spit, 1934), Das Watt (The Tidelands, 1937), and, later, Wattenmeer: Formen und Strukturen (Mudflats: Forms and Structures, 1967). Alongside his pictures taken outdoors, he created enlargements of seashells and snail shells in the style of Neue Sachlichkeit, and later he also made award-winning avant-garde films such as Tanz der Muscheln (Dance of the Seashells), which was released in 1959.
Elfriede Stegemeyer also began her work as an artist in a different genre before turning to photography in 1932. She was closely associated with the artist group of the Cologne Progressives and Dadaists, going one step further: she used photographs that she had taken of Sylt, Ibiza—where she visited artist Raoul Hausmann—and Sicily in her collages and overpainted them. In 1981 she wrote to art historian Uli Bohnen, "I am much too dedicated to my work to be able to put a label on it, but if I muse about it, I would classify it as ‘nature loving’ because I see all living things as being in danger, and I think that I sometimes approached the essence of things in my work. I allow my ‘thing’ to grow on its own as much as possible, what I do to that end is observe, investigate, isolate, connect—even at the risk of drawing false conclusions. If we don’t take risks ourselves, we cannot extract the vividness. That is why I risk making the following observation: I do not believe that abstraction alone leads to the goal. Structure per se is not an abstraction, but structure encompasses it and excludes it. I believe that all doctrines should be avoided; they impede the natural flow." Much of Stegemeyer’s oeuvre was destroyed in an air raid in 1943.
Both Elfriede Stegemeyer and Alfred Ehrhardt replaced the traditional seascape—that is, the maritime genre—with the visual experience of seeing natural structures. Both began using the camera during the Nazi era, as the medium was less in the focus of Nazi censorship and destruction. They both turned to nature in their pictures, and away from human beings, choosing details that captured natural structures in an abstract way. Although Stegemeyer and Ehrhardt both belonged to the photographic avant-garde, it took a long time for them to be truly discovered.
All photographs in the presentation are new acquisitions of the Photography Collection at the Museum Ludwig. Alfred Ehrhardt’s works are part of a generous donation from the Bartenbach family, and Elfriede Stegemeyer’s works were recently acquired from the estate of Cologne gallerist Gerd Sander, who was influential in making Stegemeyer’s work better known. This exhibition demonstrates once again that modernist photography has yet to be fully explored. | | |

Silbergelatine, 27,2 x 33,2 cm
OÖLKG, Land Oberösterreich, Fotosammlung | | | | | | | | 5 December 2024 – 9 March 2025 | | | | Opening: Wednesday 4 December 19:00 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Dora Kallmus (1881–1963), also known as Madame d'Ora, is one of the most important photographers of the early 20th century. From 1907 onwards, she ran a studio in Vienna under the brand name d'Ora, which was frequented by illustrious personalities from the aristocracy, art and society, and quickly became the first address for artistic portrait photography. Inspired by art photography around 1900, she created images that radiate elegance and individuality and reflect the prevailing zeitgeist.
As one of the first fashion photographers, she documented the clothing creations of the Wiener Werkstätte and portrayed the fashion entrepreneur and style icon Emilie Flöge. The splendid portraits of the Hungarian high aristocracy that Dora Kallmus photographed in 1916/17 on the occasion of the coronation of Emperor Charles as King of Hungary show in a unique way the splendor of an era that is coming to an end.
The exhibition, which exclusively includes the photographer's own collection, spans the period from her early days in Vienna to the later phases of her work, which she lived in Paris from 1925 onwards. In Paris, Dora Kallmus portrayed stars such as Josephine Baker and Ida Rubinstein, created glamorous fashion photographs and worked on the consistent further development of her photographic style. The experience of persecution and loss during the Second World War ultimately shaped the photographer's later work. The glamorous mixed with morbid aspects to create a new artistic visual language that found expression in photographs of animal carcasses in Parisian slaughterhouses.

Copyright The Artist | | | | | | | 4 December 2024 – 24 January 2025 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Michael Hoppen is delighted to announce a solo exhibition dedicated to the photography of Japanese Surrealist artist Kansuke Yamamoto (1914-1987). Vintage prints from the artist’s estate in Tokyo, including unique collages and solarised compositions, will be on display at our gallery in 10 Portland Road from December 4th. An illustrated monograph dedicated to Yamamoto’s work will also be on sale, strictly limited to an edition of 125 copies. Yamamoto’s creative practice began to emerge during the 1930s, when he started studying French, writing poetry and constructing his first collage compositions from newspaper headlines and cutouts. Touring exhibitions and independent journals continued to feed Japanese enthusiasm for European Surrealism throughout this period, and in 1939 Yamamoto co-founded the Nagoya Photo Avant-Garde.
In spite of the suspicion, and increasingly repression, with which avant-garde movements were treated by Japan’s imperial authorities, Yamamoto persisted in refining his distinctive perspective, combining graphic boldness with a kind of visual lyricism. His playful approach to juxtaposition invoked everyday objects in unfamiliar, symbolically charged constellations, that resonate with the Surrealist visions of his peers from across the international avant garde. | | |

[email protected] | | | | | | | | | | | | | Auktion 1255 Classical Photography For 35 years, Galerie Clairefontaine in Luxemburg was an important player on the international art scene, due, above all, to its commitment to photography. Lempertz now has the special honour of taking on the gallery’s entire photographic inventory and offering it for sale in the current and upcoming photography auctions. The artistic breadth of the gallery is reflected in the chosen 60 photographs offered here as the start of a series of auctions.
The collection stretches from early photography of the 20th century – represented here by a still life by the Dresden pictorialist Otto Ehrhardt – through American Straight Photography with works by Edward Steichen and Edward Weston (lot 507, € 3/4,000), French Photographie Humaniste with Brassaï (lot 533, € 4/5,000) and Lucien Aigner, the reportage photography of James Nachtwey, to positions from the field of contemporary photo art with Jürgen Klauke and Joseph Beuys, alongside individual highlights from Andreas Feininger (lot 580, € 3/4,000), Helmut Newton (lot 643, € 10/15,000), William Klein (lots 583/652, each € 3/4,000), Arno Rafael Minkkinen (lots 612/613, each € 2/3,000) and Edward Burtynsky (lots 678/679, each € 10/20,000).
A further highlight of the auctions comprises a private collection focused on photography to the theme of 'youth', consisting of 25 portraits of children and adolescents from different countries and decades. Here the arc reaches from the early 20th century with Heinrich Kühn (lot 701, € 1-1,500), Hugo Erfurth (lot 700, € 3-4,000) and Aenne Biermann (lot 703, € 1,800-2,000), up to the present day. The top piece in the collection is the untitled portrait of a little boy in a red sweater by William Eggleston (lot 711, € 20/30,000). Diane Arbus (lots 704-709, € 4/6,000 to € 6/8,000), Sally Mann (lots 719-722, € 6/8,000 each) and Tom Wood (lots 712-718, € 1/1,500 to € 1,200/1,500) are each represented with several outstanding works.
In addition to these two collections with their differing orientations, individual works of various provenance are of note, such as the bookbinder Rudolf Rieser’s personal example of Lee Friedlander’s portfolio '15 photographs' (lot 622, € 18/20,000), as well as two musician portraits by Anton Corbijn (lots 654/655, each € 5/6,000).
