  • POLYCOPIES Book Market on the boat Concorde Atlantique in Paris

    POLYCOPIES Book Market on the boat Concorde Atlantique in Paris

    PARIS, a boat by the river, a coffee shop and a terrace, and 35 photobook publishers from all over the world!

    These are some of the ingredients Polycopies has mixed together hoping to create a book market with a festival-like atmosphere. This first edition of this « salon des livres » is taking place on the boat Concorde-Atlantique below the Musée D’Orsay.

    During four days, running parallel to the Paris Photo fair, these 35 publishers will bring you a large selection of newly published books, organizing numerous meetings and signings with photographers.

  • Diane Vincent | OBEN

    Diane Vincent | OBEN

    It’s thirty-six degrees. A dry desert sun burns the roof.
    From up here the vast empty ground seems endless.
    The heat and the wind touch my skin.
    I open a door,
    the background noise of the city fades away.
    With my eyes closed I see an ocean of weightless light rays –
    dancing, floating…
    I trust my body.
    I’m here.

    For several years I climbed numerous rooftops to make pictures, over and over again. For a long time I didn’t know exactly why; I simply felt attached to these strange, unknown and obscure places. I explored my city from a different angle and I photographed architectural situations up there being fascinated by the vastness and expanse as well as its limitation by moments of blocked sights. Eventually I realized that I had compiled a personal map – an imaginary walk in another dimension.

  • Werner Amann – Surf Fiction

    Werner Amann – Surf Fiction

    SURF FICTION is Werner Amann’s unpublished work from 1997. It engages with social reality and image bound-culture in Los Angeles and other urban centers in the U.S. Beyond a mere documentary or created approach, SURF FICTION interlinks photography with collages, typography, video stills, abrupt breaks and double page spreads – switching with each page turn from one plot to another. The work plays with projections of a myth that regenerates itself from day to day, producing an image of Los Angeles and at the same time a visual reflection on modern reality. (mehr …)

  • Polixeni Papapetrou | Lost Psyche

    Polixeni Papapetrou | Lost Psyche

    Opening: Wednesday 29 October 6-8pm
    Exhibition: 29 October to 29 November 2014
    Stills Gallery Sydney, Australia

    Press release by Stills Gallery:
    In Lost Psyche, Polixeni Papapetrou portrays emblematic figures that have come to the end of their tradition, their rationale, their place in the world. These intriguing and charismatic characters—the poet, the tourist, the immigrant, among others—bring to life antique Victorian paper masks. Yet, despite being cast beyond our immediate reality, their costumes harking back to earlier times, their settings to fantastical places, these archetypal figures live on in the cultural imagination.

    Galerie Ori: Constanze Kratzsch | Fiction

    Die Künstlerin Constanze Kratzsch hinterfragt in ihrer Arbeit „Fiction“ die Auswirkungen der Genmanipulation an Lebewesen und der Biotechnologie, die an der Erfindung des Kyborg forscht, einem Mischwesen aus lebendigem Organimus und Maschine. Dabei bedient sie sich fabelartigen Wesen, die wie Drohnen im menschenleeren sterilen Architekturraum umher schweben. (mehr …)

    Galerie Franzkowiak | ÜBERGANG. ERINNERUNG

    Die Galerie Franzkowiak präsentiert anlässlich des 1. Monats der Fotografie OFF in Berlin die Gruppenausstellung ÜBERGANG. ERINNERUNG.

    Eine Zusammenstellung, die sich mit dem Thema des Übergangs beziehungsweise mit dem der Erinnerung beschäftigt. Ein Übergang beinhaltet oft – gerade am Anfang – das Erinnern an das Vorherige. Der örtliche Übergang, der Wechsel von einem Ort zum anderen, insbesondere der von einem bekannten zu einem fremden Ort, intensiviert das Erinnern. Später erinnert man sich anders an die fremden Orte als an die gewohnten, ebenso wie der Wandel persönlicher Umstände sich auf eine ganz eigene Weise ins Bewusstsein gräbt. (mehr …)
