All rights reserved. NYC DCA Auction House License No. 2077070 Introduction It seems we have become somewhat inured to the relentless bombardment of images we see in the media of mass migration, disease, starvation and exploitation. We console ourselves that as individuals we are powerless to make a difference to these situations borne for the most part of greed, brutality and misery. How can we, by ourselves, possibly halt the inexorable slide towards the total destruction of our planet and its flora and fauna? The first few lots of this sale are devoted to photographers who had no such qualms. At home in the US, Ansel Adams championed the preservation of the American wilderness to great effect with his studies of its vast and unpopulated glories. Adams’ early lobbying efforts, on behalf of the Sierra Club, directly led in 1939 to the creation of Kings Canyon National Park, California, putting half a million acres under irrevocable federal protection. Peter Beard and Nick Brandt’s cameras travelled further afield. Both always intended that their significant talents should be used to expose the egregious and ongoing exploitation of wild animals in Africa. From the 1960s onwards, Beard has documented the systematic destruction of Africa’s wildlife in the National Parks of Kenya’s Tsavo lowlands and Uganda in his highly glamorous and visceral prints. It has been 25 years since the publication of his highly influential book, The End Game, in which he proclaimed, “The deeper the white man went into Africa, the faster the life flowed out of it, off the plains and out of the bush… vanishing in acres of trophies and hides and carcasses.” Nick Brandt’s recent photographs of the (vanishing) inhabitants of the Kenyan national parks of Ambroseli, Serengeti and Masai Mara, however, reflect a deep emotional connection to his sitters. These are quiet, monumental and moving studies of animals who are, as he puts it, “simply in the state of Being.” Brandt has also co-founded, with conservationist Richard Bonham, Big Life Foundation, which employs 300 rangers in an area of almost two million acres in East Africa to co-ordinate anti-poaching patrols. May all three and their successors continue to jolt us out of our complacency and inactivity. 4 | BONHAMS 1 NICK BRANDT (BORN 1966) Elephant with Tattered Ears, Ambroseli, 2008 Archival pigment print, signed, dated and numbered ‘8/15’ in pencil in the margin. 27 3/8 x 32 3/4in (69.5 x 83.2cm) sheet 30 1/2 x 38 1/4in (77.5 x 97.2cm) $25,000 - 35,000 Provenance With Fahey Klein Gallery, Los Angeles Literature Brandt, On This Earth A Shadow Falls, DAP/ Big Life Editions, 2010, p. 163 PHOTOGRAPHS | 5 2 PETER BEARD (BORN 1938) Orphaned Cheetah Cubs/ Mweiga , 1962 Gelatin silver print with applied blue paint handprint, printed later, signed, titled, dated and inscribed in ink on the recto. 8 1/4 x 12 1/2in (21 x 31.7cm) sheet 8 5/8 x 12 7/8in (22 x 32.7cm) mount 14 x 18in (35.5 x 45.6cm) $25,000 - 30,000 6 | BONHAMS 3 W PETER BEARD (BORN 1938) Cows and Calves at Buffalo Springs, Kenya NFD, for “The End of the Game/ Last Word from Paradise”, June 1960 Platinum print with handwork, snapshots/ contact sheet collage featuring portrait of Karen Blixen, other works by Beard and red paint handprint, signed, titled and dated in pencil in the margin; annotations in red ink on a number of the collaged images; blue paint hand print on the external frame glazing. sheet 26 x 40in (66 x 101.6cm) overall; artist’s frame $30,000 - 50,000 Provenance With The Time is Always Now, New York PHOTOGRAPHS | 7 4 NICK BRANDT (BORN 1966) Leopard Staring, Masai Mara, 2010 Archival pigment print, signed, dated and numbered ‘AP 3/3’ in pencil in the margin. 21 3/4 x 27 1/4in (55.2 x 69.2cm) sheet 30 x 40in (76.2 x 101.6cm) $25,000 - 35,000 8 | BONHAMS 5 NICK BRANDT (BORN 1966) Lioness Looking Over Plains, Masai Mara, 2004 Archival pigment print, signed, dated and numbered ‘14/35’ in pencil in the margin. 11 x 14 1/2in (28 x 36.2cm) sheet 13 x 19in (33 x 48.2cm) $5,000 - 7,000 Provenance With Stephen Cohen Gallery, Los Angeles, acquired 2005 Literature Brandt, On This Earth A Shadow Falls, DAP/ Big Life Editions, 2010, p. 19 PHOTOGRAPHS | 9 The Jacob Collection, The Property of an Important Swiss Collector Lots 6 – 7 6 6 7 ANSEL ADAMS (1902-1984) ANSEL ADAMS (1902-1984) Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico, c. 1941 “Portfolio One: Twelve Photographic Prints by Ansel Gelatin silver print, printed 1973, signed in pencil on the Adams, 1938-1948” mount, titled, dated in ink and ‘Carmel’ credit stamp on San Francisco: Grabhorn Press, 1948, 12 gelatin the mount verso. silver prints; each signed in pencil on the mount; each 15 1/4in x 19 3/4in (38.7cm x 50 cm) with Portfolio credit stamp, numbered sequentially mount 22 x 28in (56 x 71.1cm) ‘1-12’ from set ‘19’ in red ink on the mount verso; images, varying sizes from approximately 5 x 7in $35,000 - 45,000 (12.7 x 17.7cm) to 8 x 10in (20.2 x 25.4cm) or the reverse; mount, each 14 x 18in (35.5 x 45.7 cm) or the reverse; text inserts, numbered ‘19/75’ in red ink on Provenance list of plates; one from from the edition of seventy-five; Christie’s, New York, April 23, 1996, lot 106 contained in original folding portfolio case.

  • Galerie Karsten Greve Ag
    GALERIE KARSTEN GREVE AG Louise Bourgeois, New Orleans, oil on cardboard, 1946, 66 x 55.2 cm / 26 x 21 1/4 in LOUISE BOURGEOIS December 19, 2020 – extended until March 30, 2021 Opening: Tuesday, December 29, 2020, 11 am – 7 pm Galerie Karsten Greve AG is delighted to present its third solo exhibition of works by Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) in its St. Moritz gallery space. Twenty-three distinctive pieces created during a period of six decades (1946-2007) are on show. The exhibition pays homage to one of the most significant artists of our time, reflecting thirty years of close collaboration between Galerie Karsten Greve and Louise Bourgeois. Following the artist’s first retrospective in Europe, shown at Frankfurter Kunstverein in 1989, Karsten Greve organized his first solo show of works by Louise Bourgeois in his recently opened Paris exhibition space in 1990. On the occasion of the opening of his gallery in St. Moritz in 1999, Karsten Greve dedicated a comprehensive show to the artist, followed by presentations in Paris and Cologne. Born in Paris in 1911, Louise Bourgeois grew up in a bourgeois family in Choisy-le-Roi near Paris, where her parents ran a workshop for restoring tapestries; at an early age, she made the drawings for missing sections in tapestry designs. After dropping out of mathematics at the Sorbonne, she completed her art studies, between 1932 and 1938, at the École des Beaux-Arts and selected studios and academies in Paris, taking lessons with Fernand Léger, among others. In 1938, she was married to Robert Goldwater, the American art historian, and went with him to New York.

    GALERIE KARSTEN GREVE Georgia Russell in her studio, Méru, 2021 photo: Nicolas Brasseur, Courtesy Galerie Karsten Greve, Cologne Paris St. Moritz GEORGIA RUSSELL Ajouré September, 3 – October 30, 2021 Opening on Friday, September 3, 2021, 11 am – 10 pm a DC OPEN GALLERIES 2021 event The artist will be present. Galerie Karsten Greve is delighted to show a solo exhibition featuring new work by Scottish artist Georgia Russell, who has been represented by the gallery since 2010. The show, which will be Georgia Russell's sixth solo exhibition with Galerie Karsten Greve, is a DC OPEN GALLERIES 2021 event. New works on canvas will be presented, created at her Méru studio between 2020 and 2021 during a worldwide state of crisis that was characterised by confinement and social distancing measures. By contrast, Georgia Russell has created her most recent works by breaking through matter. Her pieces epitomise the idea of the permeability of matter and breaking through the surface – ajouré – to bring this materiality to life by deliberately incorporating daylight and air into space. Born in Elgin, Scotland, in 1974, Georgia Russell, studied fine art at the Robert Gordons University of Aberdeen (until 1997) and the Royal College of Art, graduating with an MA in printmaking in 2000. Thanks to a scholarship from the Royal College of Art, the artist set up a studio in Paris. Her work has regularly been presented internationally in solo and group exhibitions. Works by Georgia Russell are also held in notable private and public collections, such as the Victoria & Albert Museum, London, the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, the E.On Art Collection, Düsseldorf, and the Museum Pfalzgalerie Kaiserslautern.

I visualised them in the costume and with the hairstyle of one of those periods, or even naked in some mythological scene: partly because I like fantasising about bygone ages, but more because, as a photographer, I prefer discovering unexpected beauties, rather than celebrating those that, in my eyes, are somewhat devalued by general admiration. I have to admit that in the beginning I wasn’t a great connoisseur of classical painting. But little by little, as this game of associations went on and as the project took shape, I began to revisit museums and to assemble a small library of art books, which in turn helped to feed my phantasies. » Frank Horvat Frank Horvat was born in 1928 in Abbazia, Italy. He has lived in Switzerland, India, England, France and the United States.

Paris – New York Frank Horvat Frank Horvat, né le 28 avril 1928 à Abbazia (Italie, aujourd'hui Opatija en Croatie) et mort le 21 octobre 2020 à Paris, est un photographe français. Il vit et travaille à Boulogne-sur-Seine. Sa rencontre avec Henri Cartier-Bresson en 1950 est déterminante pour la suite de son travail. En 1955, il participe à l'exposition "The Family of Man" organisée au MoMa par Edward Steichen. Dans les années 1960, il acquiert une renommée internationale par ses photos de mode, considérées comme renouvelant le genre. Son œuvre est éclectique, allant du photojournalisme au paysage et au portrait, en passant par la photographie de rue et des essais sur la nature et la sculpture.

Pour la troisième fois la galerie participera à la foire du dessin contemporain Drawing Now, au Carreau du Temple du 28 au 31 mars, avec une exposition monographique en hommage à Pierrette Bloch, dont l’œuvre avait déjà été choisie pour la section Masters Now de la foire en 2017. Nous présentons une sélection d’œuvres dont une partie issue de l’exposition « Ce n’est que moi », hommage de la ville de Bages à Pierrette Bloch. A travers Pierrette Bloch et ses amis artistes cette exposition de 2018 à la Maison des Arts mettait à l’honneur l’œuvre pionnière de l’artiste et surtout l’admiration que ses pairs ont toujours eu pour son travail. Notre accrochage sera donc en dialogue avec celui de la Galerie Ceysson et Bénétière (stand B2), qui montrera quant à elle une sélection d’œuvres de Pierre Buraglio, Philippe Favier, Alain Lambilliotte, Jean- Michel Meurice et Claude Viallat également issues de l’exposition à la Maison des Arts de Bages et réalisées sur de papiers déjà appartenus à Pierrette.

  • 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.

  • The History of Photography: the Research Library of the Mack Lee
    THE HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY The Research Library of the Mack Lee Gallery 2,633 titles in circa 3,140 volumes Lee Gallery Photography Research Library Comprising over 3,100 volumes of monographs, exhibition catalogues and periodicals, the Lee Gallery Photography Research Library provides an overview of the history of photography, with a focus on the nineteenth century, in particular on the first three decades after the invention photography. Strengths of the Lee Library include American, British, and French photography and photographers. The publications on French 19th- century material (numbering well over 100), include many uncommon specialized catalogues from French regional museums and galleries, on the major photographers of the time, such as Eugène Atget, Daguerre, Gustave Le Gray, Charles Marville, Félix Nadar, Charles Nègre, and others. In addition, it is noteworthy that the library includes many small exhibition catalogues, which are often the only publication on specific photographers’ work, providing invaluable research material. The major developments and evolutions in the history of photography are covered, including numerous titles on the pioneers of photography and photographic processes such as daguerreotypes, calotypes, and the invention of negative-positive photography. The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century. This is supplemented by concentrations of books on the photography of the American Civil War and the exploration of the American West. Photojournalism is also well represented, from war documentary to Farm Security Administration and LIFE photography.
