(December 12, 2017) — The Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery at Skidmore College is leading a four-campus exhibition of This Place, which features more than 600 images by twelve internationally acclaimed photographers who explore the personal and public spaces in Israel and the West Bank. Opening February 3 through April 22, 2018, the Tang’s presentation will feature work by four of the twelve photographers, who each took different approaches, highlighting how photography can illuminate multiple perspectives on a complex topic: Wendy Ewald, taught and photographed children and adults in fourteen communities in Israel and the West Bank in their homes and villages, collecting tens of thousands of digital images, a selection of which is on display at the Tang Museum; Gilles Peress photographed the Road of Patriarchs from Hebron to Jerusalem and the Palestinian village of Silwan in East Jerusalem, areas he considers to be fault lines in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict; Stephen Shore used a his 8 x 10 view camera and a digital camera to photograph landscapes and cityscapes, sacred places, street scenes, and community; and Nick Waplington created a photographic survey of Jewish settlements in the West Bank through both family portraits and images of the natural and built environment.

  • This Book Is a Compendium of New Wave Posters. It Is Organized Around the Designers (At Last!)
    “This book is a compendium of new wave posters. It is organized around the designers (at last!). It emphasizes the key contribution of Eastern Europe as well as Western Europe, and beyond. And it is a very timely volume, assembled with R|A|P’s usual flair, style and understanding.” –CHRISTOPHER FRAYLING, FROM THE INTRODUCTION 2 artbook.com French New Wave A Revolution in Design Edited by Tony Nourmand. Introduction by Christopher Frayling. The French New Wave of the 1950s and 1960s is one of the most important movements in the history of film. Its fresh energy and vision changed the cinematic landscape, and its style has had a seminal impact on pop culture. The poster artists tasked with selling these Nouvelle Vague films to the masses—in France and internationally—helped to create this style, and in so doing found themselves at the forefront of a revolution in art, graphic design and photography. French New Wave: A Revolution in Design celebrates explosive and groundbreaking poster art that accompanied French New Wave films like The 400 Blows (1959), Jules and Jim (1962) and The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964). Featuring posters from over 20 countries, the imagery is accompanied by biographies on more than 100 artists, photographers and designers involved—the first time many of those responsible for promoting and portraying this movement have been properly recognized. This publication spotlights the poster designers who worked alongside directors, cinematographers and actors to define the look of the French New Wave. Artists presented in this volume include Jean-Michel Folon, Boris Grinsson, Waldemar Świerzy, Christian Broutin, Tomasz Rumiński, Hans Hillman, Georges Allard, René Ferracci, Bruno Rehak, Zdeněk Ziegler, Miroslav Vystrcil, Peter Strausfeld, Maciej Hibner, Andrzej Krajewski, Maciej Zbikowski, Josef Vylet’al, Sandro Simeoni, Averardo Ciriello, Marcello Colizzi and many more.

  • Extra ORDINARY Photographic Perspectives on Everyday Life
    DOSSIER PRESSE © Lisette Model, Femme à la voilette, San Francisco, 1949-courtesy Baudoin Lebon extra ORDINARY Photographic perspectives on everyday life Exhibitions, workshops, events 12 October — 15 December 2019 INSTITUT POUR LA PHOTOGRAPHIE INSTITUT POUR LA PHOTOGRAPHIE extraORDINAIRE, regards photographiques sur le quotidien On 11 October 2019, the Institut pour la photographie will inaugurate its first cultural programme on in Lille with extraORDINARY: Photographic perspectives on everyday life. Seven exhibitions, an installation open to the public, as well as events and experimental workshops, will cover the history of photography from the end of the 19th century to today. This new programme reflects different photographic approaches and styles, with a selection of works from around the world that explore everyday life and its banality. DOSSIER PRESSE Throughout her career, photographer Lisette Model never ceased to affirm the importance of the individual perspective, in both her work and her teaching. The Institut pour la photographie pays tribute to her with a new exhibition bringing together four great figures of American photography around of her work: Leon Levinstein, Diane Arbus, Rosalind Fox Solomon and Mary Ellen Mark. Since 2017, Laura Henno has immersed herself in the lost city of Slab City in the heart of the Californian desert. The Institute supports the artist, who comes from the Region, with the production of previously unpublished prints for this new exhibition project Radical Devotion. Thomas Struth gives us a glimpse of our relationship to everyday life through a documentary approach that is carefully crafted to reveal the complexity of the ordinary. Begun in 1986, his psychological and sociological portraits of families revisit the traditional genre of family portraiture.

  • TPG Exhibition List
    Exhibition History 1971 - present The following list is a record of exhibitions held at The Photographers' Gallery, London since its opening in January 1971. Exhibitions and a selection of other activities and events organised by the Print Sales, the Education Department and the Digital Programme (including the Media Wall) are listed. Please note: The archive collection is continually being catalogued and new material is discovered. This list will be updated intermittently to reflect this. It is for this reason that some exhibitions have more detail than others. Exhibitions listed as archival may contain uncredited worKs and artists. With this in mind, please be aware of the following when using the list for research purposes: – Foyer exhibitions were usually mounted last minute, and therefore there are no complete records of these brief exhibitions, where records exist they have been included in this list – The Bookstall Gallery was a small space in the bookshop, it went on to become the Print Room, and is also listed as Print Room Sales – VideoSpin was a brief series of worKs by video artists exhibited in the bookshop beginning in December 1999 – Gaps in exhibitions coincide with building and development worKs – Where beginning and end dates are the same, the exact dates have yet to be confirmed as the information is not currently available For complete accuracy, information should be verified against primary source documents in the Archive at the Photographers' Gallery.

  • A Guide to Street Photography 1
    A Guide To Street Photography By Michael Ernest Sweet A Guide To Street Photography 1 Introduction StreetPhotography.com was founded in 2016 and our mission is a simple one - to inspire, educate, and encourage street photographers, from all levels and backgrounds, to strive for their very best in terms of photographic production. We here at StreetPhotography.com then aim to showcase and promote that work - the very best in street photography today. This guide, a “quick start” guide to street photography, is meant to be a primer for those looking to enter this exciting genre. This guide may also be of interest to those with more experience as well. However, what this guide is not is a comprehensive or objective accounting of the vast world of street photography. It is not meant to be a final word on the subject or a complete reference. Rather, this guide is merely meant to put forth some of the basic considerations in the genre and provide some useful feedback on those points. Put another way, this guide is intended as a starting point - some food for thought as you go forth, camera in hand, and begin (or continue) your journey as a street photographer. The opinions expressed herein are just that, opinions. This guide is based on my decade of experience working in street photography. I’ve aimed to provide accurate reflections based on that experience, but also recognize that opinions vary and not everyone will agree on all points. Fair enough. Also, enough said. Enjoy the read! Michael Ernest Sweet June 1, 2019 A Guide To Street Photography 2 © Gil Rigoulet A Guide To Street Photography 3 Looking At Photography “I find it odd when I read guides about making photography that there is a profound lack of discussion about “looking” at photography.” I find it odd when I read guides about making photography that there is a profound lack of discussion about “looking” at photography.

    Leaning In | Fearless street photographer Jill Freedman • Stories and Trends | Getty Images Since the advent of our Lean In collection, we’ve been challenging the world to re-picture the visual stereotypes around women. Our weekly ‘Leaning In’ series sparks discussion around traditional concepts associated with gender. This week, Director of the Getty Images Archive, Bob Ahern discusses the work of street photographer Jill Freedman. From riding with the NYPD documenting the underbelly of NYC in the 1970s to going shoulder to shoulder with the fire crews of the South Bronx, if you had to use just one word to describe photographer Jill Freedman, it might be fearless. I had known of Jill’s work for many years but I first met her in early 2013, at Bemelmans Bar on the Upper East Side. We met to discuss contracts and whether Getty Images might rep her pictures, and it was clear right from the off that Jill was as straight talking as her reputation suggested. Pittsburgh born but at heart a New Yorker who had seen it all. And then a bit more. And as the cocktails kept coming, I also got the impression that this petite 74-year-old was going to drink me under the table. She told me about her journey into photography, which, like the rest of her life proved unconventional. Having busked the streets of Europe for many years, she discovered photography: “I am self-taught. I got a copywriting job to support myself, and I started learning, devouring books and looking at good work, walking a lot, and shooting.” Her first self-assignment was covering the Poor People’s campaign in Washington DC in 1968 spending time amongst the protestors of the makeshift Resurrection City.
