Athens: Jose Ney Mila Espinosa “Narratives for the Illusion of an Imagined Face”

 

 


Exhibition duration: From November 18 to November 23, 2022

 


José Ney Mila Espinosa, is a Cuban artist with numerous awards and distinctions throughout his career. His works are hosted in museums in Europe and also in North and Latin America.


In this exhibition, being held at Blank Wall Gallery, “Narratives for the Illusion of an Imagined Face”, he presents a summary of all the graphic experiences he has captured by an intuitive impulse, from public situations to those of maximum privacy.


These images are the ones with which he has most identified in a very personal and intimate way. He believes that “The more information we get, the faster we understand and make a concrete idea, a conclusion that, in turn, will make us feel safe because we have understood”. In this case, the photographs do not belong to a place or to certain people. In this case they belong to any place on Earth and those people are ourselves.


The exhibition consists of B&W Photographs, which narrate the stories of the people depicted. The fact that the faces are not (clearly) visible gives the viewer the opportunity to identify with the person in question and even to create their own stories about the background of the photograph.


The exhibition will be hosted at Blank Wall Gallery

from the 18th until the 23rd of November and everyone who is interested to find out more about the art of José Ney Mila Espinosa is welcome.

Call for Entry: AAP Magazine #28 Streets

 


Our twenty-eighth printed issue of AAP Magazine will feature the best projects showcasing the theme "STREET".
Encyclopedia Britannica defines Street photography has "a genre that records everyday life in a public place."

Photographers have been documenting their environment since the invention of photography. The image "View of the Boulevard du Temple" by Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre, shows a Parisian street in 1838. Later encouraged by improvements in the portability and quality of cameras many photographers decided to record urban life. Charles Nègre, Eugene Atget, Alfred Stieglitz, Andre Kertesz, Berenice Abbott, Henri Cartier Bresson, Brassaï, Walker Evans, Robert Frank, Diane Arbus, Vivian Maier, Garry Winogrand, Lee Friedlander, William Eggleston... are amongst the many iconic photographers who captured changes in the fast-paced world of life in towns and cities.

Capturing the essence of the urban lifestyle is now both a popular form of art and an important medium of communicating the heart and soul of a society and its people.

Send us a cohesive body of work or portfolio - capturing the weird and wonderful moments unfolding around you! The subject is completely up to you. Any capture method or process, whether digital or analog, including monochromatic toning, is welcome.
