The Prix Pictet Finalists’ Exhibition comes from the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, where the Irish photographer Richard Mosse was announced winner of the CHF 100,000 prize by the late Kofi Annan at an award ceremony in May 2017. Speaking at the ceremony, Kofi Annan said: “Whether they focus on our cities; on the oceans, borders and barricades; on outer space or on the humanitarian crises unfolding across Europe; each of the photographers shortlisted for this cycle of the awards address their subject with a brilliant singularity of vision.” “Again and again they present us with visions of people carrying on against what are frequently dreadful odds.” “Perhaps in this there is hope. Hope that, despite the catastrophic damage that we have visited on the natural world and on the lives of our most vulnerable fellow citizens, it is not too late for us to reverse the damage we have done – to allow each other the space to think again.” “For all the havoc they portray, the artists shortlisted for Space have shone a light on this possibility. We would be foolish to ignore their messages.” Taking theme ‘Space’, the exhibition features work by the twelve shortlisted photographers: Mandy Barker [b.

In the twelve years since, the two greatest threats to life on the planet – excess resource depletion and damaging climate change – have only intensified. The Prix Pictet has documented the growing sustainability crisis in images raw and beautiful from across the world. In doing so it has become one of a handful of leading global prizes for any type or genre of photography.

    1 Real Time and Real Time at The Israel Museum, Jerusalem Vivianne Barsky Two kinds of absence structure the field of aesthetic experience at the end of the twentieth century and into the twenty-first…. One [is] the absence of reality itself as it retreats behind the mirage-like screen of the media…. The other is the invisibility of the presumptions of language and institutions, a seeming absence behind which power is at work, an absence which artists… try to bring to light.1 What appears as globalization for some means localization for others; signaling a new freedom for some, upon many others it descends as an uninvited and cruel fate.2 “Beyond the Limitations of Borders” In the spring and summer of 2008, as part of the cultural events planned to mark Israel’s sixtieth anniversary, The Israel Museum, Jerusalem, presented an exhibi- tion proposing to map distinctive trends in local visual art during the preceding decade. Titled Real Time: Art in Israel 1998–2008, this was one of six roughly con- current exhibitions at the country’s major museums, each devoted to a different decade of local art production since the establishment of the state. Owing to the Israel Museum’s comprehensive “campus renewal program” then under way, Real Time was mounted in the Weisbord Pavilion, a freestanding addition to the origi- nal (1965) museum cluster.COPYRIGHTED The multimedia display was MATERIALon a par with contempo- rary shows at prestigious international venues. The stakes were, indeed, set high. In his foreword to the exhibition catalogue,3 the museum’s director, James S.
