| LL Cool J, Cut Creator, and Brian Latture, New York City, 1987 © Janette Beckman | | Janette Beckman » Rebels | | 10 May – 8 September 2024 | | Opening: Friday 10 May 6:30pm | | | | | | | | Foam is proud to present the first large scale retrospective of the iconic punk and hip-hop photographer Janette Beckman. With a photographic career stretching over four decades, she documented pivotal underground movements from the early stages of the punk and hip-hop scene to recent movements like Black Lives Matter. Rebels: An Ode to Subversives, Revolutionaries and Provocateurs sheds light on themes such as social justice, political activism, and youth culture. Beckman is considered one of the most prominent photographers of the London punk scene during the 1970s and ‘80s. Her portraits of legendary groups such as The Clash, The Sex Pistols, and The Jam were often featured in influential magazines such as The Face and Melody Maker. In the early 1980s Beckman moved to New York, where she documented the rising hip-hop scene and its pioneers such as Salt-N-Pepa, Slick Rick and LL Cool J. Her photographs capture the raw energy and essence of the artists and have shaped the way we see these music cultures today. Beyond her contribution to music cultures, the exhibition pays homage to rebels who challenge social and political norms, showcasing her photographs of recent movements such as Black Lives Matter, Anti-Trump protests, and peace demonstrations for Gaza. Beckman’s commitment to capture the subversives, revolutionaries and provocateurs highlights the broader social impact of her work. Furthermore, the exhibition explores how Beckman’s photographs have influenced brands, highlighting her campaigns for renowned brands such as Dior, Kangol and the shoot for Gucci x Dapper Dan. The exhibition, Rebels, serves as a tribute to some of the most important social movements and subcultures of recent decad… | |

These are the questions that Michael Ruetz – like few other artists – addresses in his work. Since the mid-60s he has observed the transformation of natural and urban habitats in locations in Berlin and elsewhere in Europe in a large-scale photographic study, capturing the changes in a series of photographic snapshots and inventory images. His Timescapes came about over a period of nearly sixty years and comprise more than 600 series made up of thousands of photos. The central concept of Timescapes is that the position and visual axis of the camera always remain the same, while only the time intervals of the photo series vary. At the heart of the exhibition are the Timescapes of Berlin. The photo series present a particularly powerful consolidation of the far-reaching transformation of German society in the post-war period, after reunification and up to the present day. Sites of power or historical relevance such as Potsdamer Platz or the Brandenburg Gate, the Schlossplatz, Gendarmenmarkt, Berlin’s government quarters or the Berlin Wall have undergone radical change, particularly since 1989/90. Buildings and visual axes disappear or are built anew, streets are returned to previous states or renamed, squares are radically redesigned, open spaces built upon, vacant spaces given new life. Ruetz’ images of Berlin are an expression of how architecture can shape and redefine our environment, thus giving it a prerogative of interpretation over our perception. His photo series develop their own aesthetics beyond documentary sobriety, revealing a poetry of time in the process… | |

Photographic Treasures of the 20th Century. Following its highly successful premiere at Palazzo Grassi in Venice, the collaborative project will be shown at the Helmut Newton Foundation in Berlin starting 15 February 2024. "CHRONORAMA" marks the latest partnership between the Helmut Newton Foundation in Berlin and leading international collections. In 2018, it hosted "Between Art & Fashion", with 223 works by 85 photographers from the collection of Carla Sozzani, former editor-in-chief of the Italian Elle and Vogue. Now, the foundation unveils François Pinault’s recently acquired collection of exceptional photographs, including portraits, fashion, still lifes, architecture, photojournalism, as well as early illustrations from the legendary Condé Nast Archive. Showcasing nearly 250 works created between 1910 and the late-1970s for Condé Nast’s style-defining magazines, this chronological presentation traces the evolution of the fashion industry against the backdrop of radical changes in western culture, spanning subjects from the sophisticated to the sublime. Naturally, Helmut Newton’s works are also part of this remarkable collection, as he contributed extensively to Condé Nast magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair from the 1950s onward. Most of Newton’s fashion photographs featured in this show have not been previously exhibited in Berlin. Furthermore, the exhibition brings together an impressive array of Helmut Newton’s contemporaries and predecessors, including trailblazing photographers like Diane … | |

| Claudia Andujar Casulo humano (rito mortuário) - da série Casa [Human Cocoon. Mortuary Rite from The House series], 1976 © Claudia Andujar. Courtesy Galeria Vermelho, São Paulo | | Claudia Andujar » THE END OF THE WORLD | | ... until 11 August 2024 | | | | | | | | The Swiss-born Brazilian photographer and activist Claudia Andujar (*1931) serves as a role model for many politically motivated artists today. She is not only an outstanding photographer but also an activist who uses her artistic voice to draw attention to social injustices and defend the rights of indigenous communities. Her political commitment is reflected in her photography, which is not only artistically documentary but also carries a clear political message. After fleeing the Nazis, she decided to pursue a career as a photojournalist and became involved in the fight against dictatorship and violence in her new home of Brazil. From the early 1970s, she documented not only the daily life of the Yanomami indigenous community in the Amazon in northern Brazil, but also the conflicts they faced due to mining, land disputes, and diseases. Andujar henceforth dedicated her life and work to the struggle for the rights of the Yanomami, a community she joined. As part of her five decades of dedication to the protection of the Yanomami, Andujar has taken over 60,000 photographs. She has advocated for the Yanomami through her art and has also become a vehement supporter of their rights. Her efforts helped to draw international attention to the threats they face. Many indigenous activists today refer to Andujar’s impactful work over the past decades. Today, Claudia Andujar is considered one of the most important figures in photography in South America. Her works have been exhibited in renowned museums and galleries around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York. She has received numerous awards and recognitions for her artistic and social work. | |

Over its 27-year history, the Prize has become renowned as one of the most important international awards for photographers, spotlighting outstanding, innovative and thought-provoking work. The 2024 shortlisted projects all critically engage with urgent concerns, from the remnants of war and conflict, experiences of diasporic communities and decolonisation, to contested land, heritage, equality and gender. Together these artists demonstrate photography's unique capacity to reveal what is invisible, forgotten or marginalised and imagine a path to redress. The annual exhibition of shortlisted projects will be on show at The Photographers' Gallery, London from 23 February to 2 June 2024. It will then be on display from 15 June to 15 September 2024 at the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation in Eschborn/Frankfurt. The winner of the £30,000 prize will be announced at an award ceremony held at The Photographers' Gallery on 16 May 2024, with the other finalists each receiving £5,000. Full details of the Prize exhibition and award evening will be announced in early 2024. | |

| Vivian Maier New York, 1955 Posthumous gelatin silver print, printed in 2023 © Estate Vivian Maier / Courtesy Maloof Collection / Howard Greenberg Gallery, New York / Les Douches la Galerie, Paris | | Made in USA | | Vivian Maier » Sabine Weiss » | | ... until 25 May 2024 | | | | | | | | One of them, Sabine Weiss, was born in 1924. The other one, Vivian Maier, was born in 1926. Both chose the street as their field of action and had a deep empathy for the passers-by they photographed. One of them, Sabine Weiss, was born in Switzerland but became a naturalized French citizen. The other, Vivian Maier, is American, but her mother was of French origin, from the Champsaur region in the Alps. One became a professional photographer. The other spent a long time looking after children while practicing photography in her spare time, just for the pleasure of the eyes. One was a cheerful, sociable woman who achieved international recognition fairly quickly. The other was a discreet and even solitary woman whose work was discovered in 2007, two years after her death. This double exhibition, Sabine Weiss-Vivian Maier - Made in USA, is a major first. It is set in the theatre of the American city - New York, Chicago, Washington, Philadelphia - that ultimately brought them together. This dialogue attempts to show their genuine curiosity about everyday life and their deep attention to physiognomies, attitudes and dress. It shows, once again, that photography was vital to both of them. | |

In exhibitions and concerts, talks, panels and other events, current and updated photography as well as media-based art in its most diverse facets can be experienced throughout Düsseldorf. The artists will reflect in a wide variety of ways on how media significantly shapes our understanding of reality today and in the past. Computer-generated worlds of images and sounds surround us everywhere, and the Biennale integrates these into the art trail and links analogue-generated audiovisual realities. In total, the Biennale offers over 50 exhibitions and events in museums, collections, galleries, independent exhibition spaces and universities. This year's düsseldorf photo+ is being organised under the artistic direction of Pola Sieverding and Rupert Pfab. Ljiljana Radlovic oversees the project management. Highlights from our varied exhibition programme: In photographs, now seen as historic, Allan Sekula critically illuminates social structures operating within the industrial workforce of the USA at Galerie Konrad Fischer. The group exhibition at the gallery boa basedonart, another retrospective show, focuses on social stereotypes in relation to self-portraits. Sumi Anjuman offers a contemporary insight into gender inequality at the private Philara Collection. Toby Binder also takes a sociological standpoint with a look at crisis-ridden milieux at the gallery Clara Maria Sels. The exhibition at Julia Ritterskamp further investigates this stance in a show of t… | |

Eleven institutions and exhibition venues in Frankfurt and the Rhine-Main region will be showing works on the theme of "ECHOES" by contemporary photographers and artists. With exhibitions, numerous events, and a three-day festival on the triennial theme of "ECHOES", RAY offers a multifaceted exploration of photography. How do images contribute to the understanding of our identity, our memories, our emotions, and the ability to grasp and process current social, communal, and political challenges? RAY Echoes offers no answers to these questions, but rather – like a laboratory – it offers many perspectives and opportunities for individual exploration. The artists of the RAY 2024 – Triennial of Photography use photography and related media to explore and reflect on the challenges and tensions of self-perception and human interaction. Their works span the past, present, and future, from the intimate and personal to the collective. By capturing these diverse moments and phenomena, they generate an echo that draws the public’s attention to their themes. Similar to a sound experience, they create reverberation that is perceived as an independent event beyond what is depicted. On this basis, RAY Echoes concentrates on three focal points: identity, memory, and emotion. In the exhibition RAY Echoes Identity at the Fotografie Forum Frankfurt (3 May – 1 September, 2024, opening on 2 May), the artists explore the making and breaking away from identities. Echoes are present in the form of reflections on personal experience… | |

Nature loves to hide is the theme chosen by the Festival’s artistic board, this year made up of Tim Clark (editor of 1000 Words), Walter Guadagnini (photography historian and Director of CAMERA – Centro Italiano per la Fotografia) and Luce Lebart (researcher and curator, Archive of Modern Conflict). Drawing on the paradox expressed in a famous fragment by Heraclitus, the title seeks to encompass the power of a nature that so often conceals its essence right before our eyes, while increasingly revealing it in destructive ways, in a continuous process that may be understood as an oscillation between being and becoming. Through this edition’s many prestigious solo and group exhibitions, Fotografia Europea 2024 sets out to explore the connections between concealment and discovery that characterise our relationship with nature, imagining new narratives bound up in an eco-centric conception as opposed to an attitude of dominant control that our species exercises over the planet, so as to understand the current dynamics and the new directions to be taken. | |

Promoted by the City of Turin, the Piedmont Region, the Turin Chamber of Commerce, Intesa Sanpaolo, Fondazione Compagnia di San Paolo and Fondazione per l’Arte Moderna e Contemporanea CRT on behalf of Fondazione CRT and organised by Fondazione per la Cultura Torino, EXPOSED was created to strengthen the deep bond between Turin and photography. The goal is to provoke contemplation regarding the transitional state of photography. Starting from a historical perspective, Exposed seeks to present various approaches, perspectives, narratives, and intersections that showcase the diverse forms the medium takes on. Simultaneously, it aims to inspire, evoke emotions, entertain, and propose new ways of interacting with, interpreting, and appreciating the work of both classic and contemporary artists. Exposed envisions itself as a cutting-edge presence in the international photography panorama, complementing the existing offerings. Therefore, the festival’s artistic direction is focused on an inclusive approach to attract diverse audiences—both local and international—through a diverse program that encompasses different approaches to photography: from classic to contemporary, cross-media, installative and performative. Collaboration and collectivity are key aspects highlighted by the artistic direction, emphasizing the multidisciplinary and kaleidoscopic nature of Exposed.

The pre-opening will take place on April 17, 18 and 19 ; the awards ceremony and inauguration will be held on 20 April 2024 . Since 2021, La Biennale di Venezia launched a plan to reconsider all of its activities in light of recognized and consolidated principles of environmental sustainability. For the year 2024, the goal is to extend the achievement of “carbon neutrality” certification , which was obtained in 2023 for La Biennale’s scheduled activities: the 80th Venice International Film Festival, the Theatre, Music and Dance Festivals and, in particular, the 18th International Architecture Exhibition which was the first major Exhibition in this discipline to test in the field a tangible process for achieving carbon neutrality – while furthermore itself reflecting upon the themes of decolonisation and decarbonisation. The Exhibition will take place in the Central Pavilion (Giardini) and in the Arsenale, and it will present two sections: the Nucleo Contemporaneo and the Nucleo Storico. As a guiding principle, the Biennale Arte 2024 has favored artists who have never participated in the International Exhibition—though a number of them may have been featured in a National Pavilion, a Collateral Event, or in a past edition of the International Exhibition. Special attention is being given to outdoor projects, both in the Arsenale and in the Giardini, where a performance program is being planned with events during the pre-opening and closing weekend of the 60th Exhibition. Stranieri Ovunque - Foreigners Everywhere, the title of the 60th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia, is drawn from a series of works started in 2004 by the Paris-born and Palermo-based Claire Fontaine collective. The works consist of neon sculptures in different colours that render in a growing number of languages the words “Foreigners Everywhere”. The phrase comes, in turn, from the name of a Turin collective who fought racism and xenophobia in Italy in the early 2000s. «The expression Stranieri Ovunque - explains Adriano Pedrosa - has several meanings. First of all, that wherever you go and wherever you are you will always encounter foreigners— they/we are everywhere. Secondly, that no matter where you find yourself, you are always truly, and deep down inside, a foreigner.» | |
