With works by 33 artists on display, it introduces the essential currents that once revolutionized the canon of classic motifs and photographic practices. The effects of this have reached far beyond the country’s borders to the present day. The main focus of the works is on offering a visual survey of the United States by depicting its people and their living environments. A microcosm frequently viewed through the lens of everyday occurrences permits us to draw conclusions about the prevalent political circumstances and social conditions in the United States, capturing the country and its inhabitants in their idiosyncrasies and contradictions. In several instances, artists having immigrated from Europe successfully perceived hitherto unknown aspects through their eyes as outsiders, thus providing new impulses. -
Memphis, Eggleston, About 1965
J. Paul Getty Museum Education Department Exploring Photographs Information and Questions for Teaching Memphis, William Eggleston Memphis William Eggleston American, Memphis, Tennessee, about 1965–1970 Gelatin silver print 9 1/2 x 6 1/4 in. 2002.38.8 William Eggleston made this image from a two-person table in a Memphis diner; the collection of shakers and condiment jars on the tabletop in front of him are blurred by the camera's close proximity. Eggleston focused on an older woman having coffee at the next table, who returns his gaze. A bright stripe on the wall behind her and a nearby neon clock sign also vie for the camera's attention. The sign's message, "Payroll checks cashed free," addresses the diner's working-class patrons—a friendly message in an alienating interior. Diners are ubiquitous places, fixtures of American road culture where inexpensive food can be had quickly. The diner is also an iconic subject of twentieth-century American art; it featured in Edward Hopper's paintings of the 1930s and Robert Frank's photographs in The Americans, published in the 1950s. Eggleston's image extends their theme of lone city-dwellers sitting forlornly in harshly lit © Eggleston Artistic Trust eating establishments, looking as if they are trapped there. About the Artist William Eggleston (American, b. 1939) William Eggleston assumes a neutral gaze and creates his art from commonplace subjects: a farmer's muddy Ford truck, a red ceiling in a friend's house, the contents of his own refrigerator. In his work, Eggleston photographs "democratically"—literally photographing the world around him. -

Sandra Weiner: New York Kids, 1940-1948 Exhibition: June 7Th – July 27Th, 2018 Opening Reception: June 7Th, 2018, 6 – 8 PM
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Sandra Weiner: New York Kids, 1940-1948 Exhibition: June 7th – July 27th, 2018 Opening Reception: June 7th, 2018, 6 – 8 PM Steven Kasher Gallery is pleased to present Sandra Weiner: New York Kids, 1940-1948. The exhibition features over twenty rare vintage black and white prints, many exhibited for the first time. Weiner’s photographs are celebrated for their perceptive depiction of everyday life in New York City's close-knit neighborhoods of the 1940s. Her photographs of children at play create a palpable sense of place. Weiner’s photographs reveal random moments of grace, transforming social documentation into a broadly humanist mode of street photography. Her sensitive and subtle renderings of neighborhood atmosphere make her photographs of New York heartwarming. Also on view is the exhibition Dan Weiner: Vintage New York, 1940-1959. This is the first time that exhibitions of the husband and wife photographers have been on view concurrently. Weiner focused on New York’s poorer children, possibly because she identified with them but more so because she wanted to tell a story of perseverance and hope. Weiner’s work highlighted social concerns of the era, however she focused her lens specifically on the city’s youngest denizens. For Weiner, children surviving the rough-and-tumble city streets became a symbol of fortitude. She strolled the city’s streets or posted at the edge of vacant lots where children play and caught them absorbed in their own worlds. Included in the exhibition is an extended essay in which Weiner followed a young boy named Mickey through his daily life in the tenements of East 26th Street. -

I was born in Manhattan. In fact, I was born in Harlem. At the time, that's where my family lived. And soon moved to Brooklyn.

17TH WESTLICHT PHOTO AUCTION Friday, March 9, 2018, 5 Pm
17TH WESTLICHT PHOTO AUCTION Friday, March 9, 2018, 5 pm “Schönheit und Abgrund“ (beauty and the abyss) is the motto of this year’s celebrations of Modernism in Vienna. Gustav Klimt was one of the protagonists who shaped the intellectually vibrant, cosmopolitan city around 1900. He died a hundred years ago. In the photograph taken by Moriz Nähr in 1912, Gustav Klimt poses very much alive and not the least bit abyssal in his studio, petting his cat and glancing at the camera with vivid and warm-hearted eyes. It is one of his most famous portraits (estimate: 24,000-28,000 Euro) and is now on offer at the upcoming 17th WestLicht Photo Auction, only one of the highlights among more than 200 photographs and complementary rare treasures from the medium of the photobook. Klimt is accompanied by further Austrian masters of photography from the early 20th century like Rudolf Koppitz, Heinrich Kühn, Ferdinand Schmutzer, Madame d’Ora and Trude Fleischmann. The latter produced an enchanting portrait of the famous state opera dancer Tilly Losch, which is estimated at 2,500 to 3,000 Euro. Like Klimt, Czech photographer František Drtikol was a master of the female nude. Two works by him, “Untitled (Nude with shadow)”, 1926 (estimate: 9,000-10,000 Euro) and “Untitled (Backlit nude)”, c. 1926 (estimate: 7,000-9,000 Euro), are up for auction. Both come from the holdings of German photographer Grete Leistikow and display a cubist and art déco influence in their geometric elements, the expressively dynamic poses and the dramatic lighting. -

Exhibition History, 1971 - Present
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 events organised by the Print Sales, the Education Department and the Digital Programme (Wall) are included. 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 exists 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 Room at the Photographers' Gallery. For more information, please contact the archive at tpg.archive@tpg. org.uk 1970s Group Exhibition Date: 13/01/1971
