  • 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.

  • Street Photography – for the Purist Words & Photos by Chris Weeks
    Street Photography – For the Purist words & photos by Chris Weeks forwards with photos by: Severin Koller – Austria Michael Kaiser – Germany Matthew Craig – United States of America Rainer Pawellek – France Deborah Delasio – Italy Errol Lyons-Rainey – United Kingdom Darren Abate – United States of America Massimiliano Mortillaro – Czech Republic Bernhard Wolf – Austria Patrick Kahn – Los Angeles/Paris Forward by Severin Koller – Austria (edited by Chris Weeks) When I started photography about two years ago I had a compact digital camera with no mentionable resolution. I soon started to focus on structures and abstract photography because anything else wasn't possible due to the low quality. It soon led me to architectural photography, which turned out to be the subject and style I master the best. It also makes my living at the moment. With that small digital camera, street photography were just ridiculous attempts that never turned out as they should have. As I investigated new photographic gear about a year ago, I still had the opinion that digital is the way … the future. Last summer I got the Canon Eos 1Ds Mark II, which I use for my commissions and some conceptual and architectural work. I used it for personal work sometimes as well. The moments you want to make should be personal, intimate, close and unobtrusive photos … you can throw these 7000 bucks in the rubbish bin !! My point is … I fell in love with street photography the moment I started analogue photography. I never took portraits. I never did journalism. I never dared to do street photography the classic way.

  • Gian Paolo Barbieri? Perché, Mai? Al Culmine Di Un Anno Di Appuntamenti Fotografici Organizzati, Allestiti E Svolti Sotto L’Egida Di Mat2019
    In forma di prologo Raramente, mi esprimo in prima persona, preferendo frequentare la forma impersonale del “noi”. Non lo faccio per evitare eventuali responsabilità di e dalla scrittura, ma per una malaugurata assenza di autoreferenzialità (e, forse, di terribile timidezza), che antepone l’argomento affrontato e trattato a qualsivoglia personalismo, o presunto tale. Però, qui e oggi, per mille e mille motivi, certamente tutti leciti e plausibili, scrivo in prima persona singolare: “io”, invece di “noi”. Lo faccio in triplice rispetto; in questo ordine, in questa graduatoria: anzitutto, verso il pubblico, referente principale, che ha così modo di percepire l’intimità delle considerazioni espresse; quindi, per l’autore Gian Paolo Barbieri, affinché sappia a chi riferirsi individualmente, magari sdegnandosi senza sbagliare mira; infine, di coloro con i quali ho condiviso e condivido il cammino di Coscienza dell’Uomo, all’interno del cui contenitore viene allestita l’attuale selezione Tahiti Tattoos, che sono all’oscuro del contenuto che sto per esprimere, e dal quale hanno così modo di prendere probabili distanze. M.R. Gian Paolo Barbieri? Perché, mai? Al culmine di un anno di appuntamenti fotografici organizzati, allestiti e svolti sotto l’egida di Mat2019. Coscienza dell’Uomo potrebbe anche risultare chiaro, perché chiarito a lettere schiette e sincere, oltre che energiche, determinate ed evidenti. Perfino, coraggiose.Coscienza dell’Uomo ha scartato a lato convenzioni e retoriche che, almeno qui da noi, in Italia, nel nostro paese, inquinano la riflessione sulla Fotografia, qualsiasi cosa questa significhi per ciascuno di noi. Dunque, Coscienza in quanto tale e non dipendente dall’esuberante apparenza dei soggetti avvicinati e fotografati.

Through close visual analyses of photojournalist, press, and social documentary photographs, this Ph.D examines the visual responses to the Government’s advocation of a ‘healthy’ society and its programme of social and economic ‘waste-saving’. Drawing Imogen Tyler’s interpretation of ‘social abjection’ (the discursive mediation of subjects through exclusionary modes of ‘revolting aesthetics’) into the visual field, this Ph.D explores photography’s implication in bolstering the abject and exclusionary discourses of the era. Exploring the contexts in which photographs were created, utilised and disseminated to visually convey ‘waste’ as an expression of social abjection, this Ph.D exposes how the Right’s successful establishment of a neoliberal political economy was supported by an accelerated use and deployment of revolting photographic aesthetics.
