Stills presents an exhibition of new photography by Matthew Arthur Williams. <br>

Williams is a Glasgow-based artist who has become known for a visual arts practice that explores themes of race, queerness, memory and history. A key concern that he addresses in his work is the absence of representation and how this can be perpetuated by formal histories and archives. <br><br>
For Williams, memory is something that has to be worked on constantly for hidden histories to be revealed, retold, celebrated and preserved.<br><br>
Often collaborating with others, Williams’ work typically incorporates photography, moving image and sound. <br><br>
In his 2022 exhibition, Soon Come, at DCA, Dundee, he combined archive material with filmed documentary footage, interviews with family members and self-portraiture to explore the complex histories tied to people and place, particularly those of Jamaica and Stoke-on-Trent. <br><br>
For the context of Stills, his exhibition consists entirely of new colour and black and white photographs. The methodical, slower-paced process of analogue photography, using a darkroom to bring pictures to life from photographic negatives, is something that Williams values. <br><br>
The exhibition features a selection of new self-portraits and landscapes which Williams describes as being, “in a state of constant loss”. All the work on display has been produced in the publicly accessible photography darkrooms at Stills and at Street Level Photoworks, Glasgow.<br><br>
Matthew Arthur Williams was born in London in 1989 and is a Glasgow-based artist, photographer and DJ. His work has recently been included in the exhibitions: Five By Five at Incubator, London (2024) and Pictures of Us at Gathering, London (2023). His solo exhibition, Soon Come was presented at Dundee Contemporary Arts (2022) and his work has been included in group exhibitions at Viborg Kunsthal, Denmark (2021); Edinburgh Art Festival (2021); Jupiter Artland, Edinburgh (2021); Schau Fenster, Berlin, Germany (2020); Taigh Chearsabhagh, North Uist (2020); Street Level Photoworks, Glasgow (2019); and Transmission Gallery, Glasgow (2017). He completed a BA in Photography at Manchester Metropolitan University in 2012.<br>

"A vital part of our role at Stills is to support, nurture and promote photographic practice in Scotland. By offering solo exhibitions to artists and photographers based here, we provide a valuable platform for practitioners to test and share new ideas. <br><br>
Matthew Arthur Williams has developed a distinctive visual arts practice in Scotland and we are excited to give him this opportunity to showcase his recent photography - a medium that he has described as an anchor in his creative output and a passion since childhood. <br><br>
We are proud that Matthew has also been able to produce all the work on display using our publicly accessible photography darkrooms as well as those at Street Level Photoworks in Glasgow” - Ben Harman
'At the top of the list for me when producing work that carries multiple themes or subject matters, my obsession with the power of image making and how we read an image comes first. <br><br>
My work is saying something very loudly to me, and I like to leave it up to the viewer if those things resonate for them. This show at Stills is no different and continues to take a moment to stop or move at a slower pace.' - Matthew Arthur Williams<br>

Spread the Photographic Passion!<i>"To take photographs means to recognize - simultaneously and within a fraction of a second - both the fact itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it meaning. It is putting one's head, one's eye, and one's heart on the same axis."</i><br>

Our 36th printed issue of AAP Magazine will feature the best projects showcasing the theme "STREET".<br><br>
Encyclopedia Britannica defines Street photography has "a genre that records everyday life in a public place."<br><br>
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.<br><br>
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.<br><br>
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.<br><br>
Winners will receive $1,000 in cash awards, their winning portfolio published in AAP Magazine#36, extensive press coverage and global recognition.<br><br>
All winners will have their work published in the eighth printed issue of AAP Magazine, a free copy of the magazine and their portfolio showcased in the Winners Gallery of www.all-about-photo.com.<br><br>

Fine art photographer Barbara Cole reveals the pioneering trajectory of her decades-long career in Between Worlds, a solo exhibition at Bau-Xi Gallery, on view September 5 – 30, 2023.
Following the recent release of her new book, Between Worlds, published by teNeues publishing house, Cole’s exhibition at Bau-Xi Gallery mirrors the book’s holistic narrative by tracing Cole’s inventor-like spirit and painterly approach to photography sustained over the decades as well as where her work is heading next. The exhibition gathers works that span various points throughout her career as well as new works, together examining the ways she has experimented with photographic mediums to create imagery that is inventive, timeless, and dreamlike.
The exhibition features several different bodies of work, including: selections from the new series Somewhere that evolves her signature underwater photography of the female form suspended within heavily adorned architectural spaces to create phantasmagoric scenes; selections from the series Shadow Dancing, her wet collodion practice in which she revitalizes the 19th Century photographic process with contemporary experimentation to create three-dimensional dance between light and shadow; selections of lenticulars that, paired with her underwater imagery, create an illusion of depth and weightlessness; and others.
The exhibition coincides with the grand opening of Bau-Xi Gallery’s expansive new location on Dufferin Street on September 9, 2023. In tandem with artist Gavin Lynch’s concurrent exhibition, Between Worlds is the first formal exhibition to open at the new location.
The artist will be in attendance for the opening reception on September 7, 2023, as well as for an artist talk, Q&A, and book signing on September 30, 2023.

Predominantly women photographers, they come from 11 different countries and 3 continents.<br><br>
For this new edition of All About Photo Magazine we chose to feature projects that beautifully capture the essence of nature, highlighting the magnificence of landscapes, wildlife, and flora & fauna. Nature photography is a captivating genre that explores and captures the breathtaking beauty of the natural world.<br><br>
Nature photography not only celebrates the earth's majesty but also serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of conservation and our responsibility to protect our planet for future generations. Behind the camera lens, photographers possess a unique skill to seize the intricate marvels of our natural world, ranging from the towering splendor of mountains to the delicate intricacies of a flower's petal. These images stand as potent ambassadors for our Earth, consistently reminding us of the breathtaking spectacles that grace our daily existence.<br><br>
In a world often entrapped by the relentless pace of contemporary living, nature photography emerges as a sanctuary, urging us to pause and reflect upon the awe-inspiring landscapes, the diverse ecosystems, and the countless species that have carved their niche on Earth. These visual odysseys into the wilderness transport us to the farthest reaches of the globe, where untouched beauty remains unmarred by human hands. Through the lens of a photographer, we are allowed to partake in the exhilaration of a ride on a boat in Vietnam, discover Ethiopia's Simien Mountains, or the serenity of a sunrise in Patagonia.
Yet, nature photography transcends the realms of visual escapism; it stands as a poignant reminder of our collective duty to safeguard our planet for generations yet to come. Every striking image, whether it showcases the vibrancy of a coral reef or the grandeur of an ancient forest, carries an implicit summons to action. These images articulate the urgency of conserving these irreplaceable treasures before they fade into oblivion. They awaken a profound sense of awe, kindling a desire within us to become more responsible stewards of the environment and fervent advocates for conservation.<br><br>
In an era marked by the ominous shadows of climate change, deforestation, and the relentless loss of habitats, the role of nature photography amplifies in significance. It thrusts environmental challenges into the spotlight, emphasizing the intricate interdependence of all living creatures. When confronted with a photograph depicting critically endangered species or plastic bags choking our coral reef, we cannot remain apathetic. These images impel us to reconsider our choices, diminish our ecological footprint, and champion initiatives that champion sustainability and conservation.<br><br>
Furthermore, nature photography possesses the unique ability to forge deep emotional connections between individuals and the natural world. It ignites within us a sense of wonder and reverence for the Earth, fostering an enhanced appreciation for the beauty and complexity of our planet. Through this profound connection, we are more inclined to embark on meaningful endeavors to safeguard our environment, be it through active participation in local clean-up initiatives, fervent support for wildlife conservation organizations, or impassioned advocacy for policies that address pressing environmental concerns.<br><br>

from July 3 to September 24, 2023 at 18 rue de la Calade — Arles, Manuel Rivera-Ortiz Foundation<br><br>
Grow Up is a programme of exhibitions, offering a cross-section of views on the movement of plants around the world. Cradle of biodiversity and environmental tensions, the twenty or so artists are based in South America, Central America and Taiwan.
Each focus highlights the relationship between plants and humans, exploring the local relationships of a territory but also international ones. This geographical scale cuts across political, social and environmental narratives and issues, as well as post-colonial issues. From the Amazon, to Costa Rica, to Taiwan, the projects cross master plants, shamanism, drugs but also the sensitive exploration of a territory.<br><br>
This relation to plants is central, they are sacred and at the heart of local cultures and beliefs, Grow up wishes to cultivate and increase awareness of our relationship with living things. Fotohaus is invited to extend this programme with Nature et Société.<br><br>

Our 34th printed issue of AAP Magazine will feature the best projects showcasing the theme "Shapes". A shape is the form of an object or its external boundary, outline, or external surface. Look around you, observe all the points, lines, patterns or silhouettes that surround us. Square or circle, triangle or hexagon, rectangle or oval, the choice is yours!<br><br>
Reveal us the elements that abstract into light, texture, shape and shadow!<br><br>
The rhythm of surfaces, lines, and values is for me the essence of photography; composition should be a constant of preoccupation... an organic coordination of visual elements
Henri Cartier-Bresson<br><br>
Send us your images - series preferably- both where shapes may not just influence the pictures, but where it may also be the subject solely. Whether in architecture, portrait, landscape, nude, street or any other form of photography - classic or experimental: we're open to all genres and we want to discover the best and most interesting photography from all over the world. <br><br>

ARTS IN PROGRESS gallery is delighted to present the first personal
exhibition of the young Iranian Artist Farnaz Damnabi,open now and
extended owing to popular demand until the 30th September ’23.</p><p><br />The
exhibition is entitled ‘UNVEILED’ and it brings together a selection of
works that tell visitors the tale – as refined as it is powerful – of a
young female photographer from contemporary Iran, suspended between
past and future.</p><p>Women play the absolute starring role in her
shots: Damnabi both illustrates and pays tribute to the Iranian female
identity, which is shown here in the routine of women, mothers and
workers ignored by a strictly patriarchal society, which is so late to
recognise their equality, value, and freedom.</p><p>Many of the
photographs on display highlight issues such as discrimination against
women in the labour market, the gender gap in salaries, and the failure
to recognise their silent contribution to key sectors of the Iranian
economy and craft industry (such as the harvesting of saffron in the
fields of Torbat-e Heydarieh or the production of carpets).</p><p>In her
Lost Paradise series, female figures are portrayed from behind in front
of a traditional Persian rug and appear to blend in – and almost merge –
with the background, a metaphor for both their optical and social
invisibility.</p></div></div></div><div class="page" title="Page 2"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p>Some
of her most famous reporting work, which is both poetic and dramatic,
is dedicated to children and has the dual purpose not only of showing
the difficulties of a childhood spent in this country, but also the
ability – typical of youngsters – to find magic even in the most adverse
circumstances because, as the emblematic title of one of her projects
reminds us, Playing is my right.</p><p>Women, children and teenagers
also crowd the shots in her Metamorphosis series: a veritable collection
of suspended moments, scenes of everyday life, rituals, garments and
emblematic traditions of Iran. With her recent project Be like a
Butterfly, the artist documents the attempt made by the younger
generations of women to improve their condition, marking changes so slow
and tardy that they seem imperceptible, comparing them to the same
metamorphosis that chrysalides undergo to become butterflies.</p></div></div></div><div class="page" title="Page 3"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p>In
the highly personal and moving account she makes of her homeland,
Damnabi also documents the experiment of the new city erected a few
kilometres from Tehran.<br /><br /></p><p>Sadly ironically called Pardis
(Paradise), it was intended to reverse the migration of the most densely
populated cities; the mass construction of new buildings has, however,
led to the devastation of the mountain ecosystem and the destruction of
its natural habitat, making connections to the capital even worse. The
pictures on display, that are part of the namesake Pardis series, appear
somewhat suspended between reality and dream and show the bleak outlook
of a ‘lunar landscape’ – as defined by the Artist herself – of a
Paradise denied and which is in fact a dormitory district where a great
many workers and most of the poorest families simply survive, in ghettos
deprived of the most basic amenities.</p></div></div></div><div class="page" title="Page 3"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p>Damnabi’s
photographs turn Iran’s unheard voices into images: they are the
stories of women, marginalised from all aspects of the society in which
they live; the stories of children, deprived of the inalienable right to
a carefree childhood; they are the stories, all things considered, of
all the invisible Iranians who have always been relegated to the
farthest confines, both geographical and social.</p><p>The aim of her
portraits is not to be controversial but rather representative, showing
us with her own eyes a world which we are certainly aware of, but which
now touches us more intensely and to the core.</p><p>Among these tales
of isolation, loss and exclusion, Farnaz Damnabi’s young voice rises
with refined elegance as a shout of indignation combined with trust.<br /><br /></p><p>Her
photographs are concurrently delicate and powerful and while they
impress us, they above all force us to see, to reflect, and to hope
alongside her.</p><p> </p><p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWq1nDBLb7R97yVLh87fppbQcFm8M-UL6jKXpVySN1JljhU6x-0p_vMaP4HKceW9eQ9wD4bPY_mEvKRnhrAMJnfzjEEZDdh4eVhpq5DSY8TZX61e_hhDOFNY93sHFj0TIwODicYzjQNi_KmMUHf11qVGHoChFofBPv2oOswZAOE88wY-SDbqr13S-MKCA/s1280/11_%C2%A9%20Farnaz%20Damnabi%20-%20Pinwheel,%202020%20-%20Courtesy%20of%2029%20ARTS%20IN%20PROGRESS%20gallery.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="853" data-original-width="1280" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWq1nDBLb7R97yVLh87fppbQcFm8M-UL6jKXpVySN1JljhU6x-0p_vMaP4HKceW9eQ9wD4bPY_mEvKRnhrAMJnfzjEEZDdh4eVhpq5DSY8TZX61e_hhDOFNY93sHFj0TIwODicYzjQNi_KmMUHf11qVGHoChFofBPv2oOswZAOE88wY-SDbqr13S-MKCA/w640-h426/11_%C2%A9%20Farnaz%20Damnabi%20-%20Pinwheel,%202020%20-%20Courtesy%20of%2029%20ARTS%20IN%20PROGRESS%20gallery.jpeg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Farnaz Damnabi - Pinwheel, 2020 - Courtesy of 29 ARTS IN PROGRESS gallery</td></tr></tbody></table><br /> </p></div></div></div><address> </address></div>All about photohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07378956540745939951noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-915712109897360292.post-82847211980722671602023-07-12T07:25:00.001-07:002023-07-12T07:25:04.208-07:00Paris: Uchronie by Vincent Fournier<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXIa-QSO9isz_Vlg456yMQ0UPuZaG9fq-0DpsUlLol85X_iC0s0qZzrAWAyD2vr_DmD0wwtvMKZVW547B9wge0uiBcRVIKmzMwe40I0EG4csBafRcRfXlIErGqtiahekVxvur5w_q4FAjKW_PbcVQolul7XvKOVJoEhDNBWgXpxUkwl4mtLUdeBRgAWtA/s658/9e2f2170f62724cd49ee0aaa2f9c9d1a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="658" data-original-width="519" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXIa-QSO9isz_Vlg456yMQ0UPuZaG9fq-0DpsUlLol85X_iC0s0qZzrAWAyD2vr_DmD0wwtvMKZVW547B9wge0uiBcRVIKmzMwe40I0EG4csBafRcRfXlIErGqtiahekVxvur5w_q4FAjKW_PbcVQolul7XvKOVJoEhDNBWgXpxUkwl4mtLUdeBRgAWtA/w504-h640/9e2f2170f62724cd49ee0aaa2f9c9d1a.jpg" width="504" /></a></div><p><br /></p><p>Uchronie, an exhibition at the Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature (Museum of Hunting and Nature), is dedicated to the work of photographer and artist Vincent Fournier.<br />Uchronie is the name given to a fictional reconstruction of history that might have differed from what we know. With this title, the exhibition is seen as so many disturbing parallel histories. What if?<br /><br />In an alternative version of history, the Uchronie exhibition explores humanity's relationship with nature and technology. It raises questions about the possible evolution of life on Earth. Fournier is inspired by the utopian visions of the 20th and 21st centuries, such as space exploration and the redesign of life itself. His concept of 'future bursts' blends the phantastical and the believable, creating compelling stories from the past and present. The exhibition is a light-hearted exploration of how life as we know it has evolved over time.<br /><br />Recognizing his unique work, the Museum invited Fournier to exhibit within its permanent collections. His 'augmented' animals, displayed alongside traditional taxidermy, create a wonderful juxtaposition. Observant viewers are drawn into a captivating game of spotting details that transform animals into enhanced future beings.<br /><br />When in Paris, visit the exhibition at Musee de la Chasse et de la Nature, 62 rue des Archives, 75003 Paris.

photography is a captivating and diverse genre that focuses on
capturing the beauty and essence of the natural world. It encompasses
various aspects such as landscapes, wildlife as well as flora and fauna,
each offering its own unique charm and opportunities for exploration.<br /><br />
<b>Landscape</b> photography involves capturing the grandeur and
vastness of natural environments. It entails showcasing the breathtaking
vistas of mountains, rolling hills, serene lakes, cascading waterfalls,
dramatic coastlines, as well as abandoned man made structures invaded
by vegetation. <br /><br />
<b>Wildlife</b> photography is another prominent aspect of nature
photography. It involves photographing animals in their natural
habitats, capturing their behavior, movements, and interactions.
Wildlife photographers often venture into diverse ecosystems, ranging
from lush rainforests to arid deserts, to document the incredible
diversity of species. <br /><br />
<b>Flora and fauna</b> photography delves into the intricate beauty of
plants, flowers, and other living organisms. It seeks to capture the
details, colors, and textures of vegetation, showcasing the diversity
and delicacy of the plant kingdom. <br /><br />
In all these aspects of nature photography, photographers strive to
convey the harmony, diversity, and fragility of the natural world. They
aim to evoke a sense of wonder, appreciation, and connection with
nature, encouraging viewers to develop a deeper understanding and
respect for the environment. Through their images, nature photographers
inspire conservation efforts and raise awareness about the importance of
preserving these natural treasures for future generations.<br /><br />

Whether in portrait, landscape, nude, street or any other form of photography - classic or experimental: we're open to all genres and we want to discover the best and most interesting photography from all over the world. <br /><br />Winners will receive $1,000 in cash awards, their winning image(s) or full portfolio published in AAP Magazine#32, extensive press coverage and global recognition. <br /><br />All winners will have their work published in the 32nd printed issue of AAP Magazine, a free copy of the magazine and their portfolio showcased in the Winners Gallery of www.all-about-photo.com.<br /><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.all-about-photo.com/all-about-photo-contest.php?cid=69" target="_blank">ENTER HERE</a></p><p> <br />1st Place winner<br />Cash Prize: $500 (US Dollars).<br />Exclusive interview and winning image(s) or portfolio published in AAP Magazine, Volume 32: B&W<br />One free copy of AAP Magazine that will be for sale and distributed on Blurb.com<br />Winning work showcased on the online Winners Gallery of All About Photo<br /><br />2nd Place Winner<br />Cash Prize: $300 (US Dollars).<br />Winning image(s) or portfolio in AAP Magazine, Volume 32: B&W<br />One free copy of AAP Magazine that will be for sale and distributed on Blurb.com<br />Winning work showcased on the online Winners Gallery of All About Photo<br /><br />3rd Place Winner<br />Cash Prize: $200 (US Dollars).<br />Winning image(s) or portfolio published in AAP Magazine, Volume 32: B&W<br />One free copy of AAP Magazine that will be for sale and distributed on Blurb.com<br />Winning work showcased on the online Winners Gallery of All About Photo<br /><br />Particular Merit Mention<br />The next twelve winners (ranked from 4 to 15) will have their best image(s) or portfolio published in AAP Magazine Vol.32.</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtzb0wFz138CiSYYEUOARu--m6e80QxRnDtj5RDi-QotfVrft03U93oKnugIS8tLf_WAnDAWBBcXYJjTxxjPtat2y31Q3ZVetY9a-YxdUhlPVvX2duWVPxwXTDP7W2T7eYXzrcQo-y9vAsuPXUzitFaqYDMrAZ8tjN2pr4LX2wEXmiMPWMYxd11_TV/s800/CONT-AAPM32-BW-2023-800-H-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="550" data-original-width="800" height="440" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtzb0wFz138CiSYYEUOARu--m6e80QxRnDtj5RDi-QotfVrft03U93oKnugIS8tLf_WAnDAWBBcXYJjTxxjPtat2y31Q3ZVetY9a-YxdUhlPVvX2duWVPxwXTDP7W2T7eYXzrcQo-y9vAsuPXUzitFaqYDMrAZ8tjN2pr4LX2wEXmiMPWMYxd11_TV/w640-h440/CONT-AAPM32-BW-2023-800-H-2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><a href="https://www.all-about-photo.com/all-about-photo-contest.php?cid=69" target="_blank">ENTER HERE</a></p>All about photohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07378956540745939951noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-915712109897360292.post-23316770661260027712023-04-23T00:53:00.005-07:002023-04-23T00:53:38.974-07:00Win an online Solo Exhibition in June 2023<p> </p><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdkHr4V0G8BbJHbL-kuGaibGBeB3lBQdS_nRlNz3wSfrQeFAVKEfjLmRU8QtPFRMo-_caTARExjfTzjMZINKF3pKTmLI-G5bozasW8EF0Cs1ONEONszIVZBn2ycpMJYlLjMo5KohTS-5hDoBniAxxyl2xiUfNbpEmRZUqCRhSIp0BPR4xeC6Ij1twU/s800/CONT-AAPE-JUN2023-800-H.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" data-original-height="550" data-original-width="800" height="440" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdkHr4V0G8BbJHbL-kuGaibGBeB3lBQdS_nRlNz3wSfrQeFAVKEfjLmRU8QtPFRMo-_caTARExjfTzjMZINKF3pKTmLI-G5bozasW8EF0Cs1ONEONszIVZBn2ycpMJYlLjMo5KohTS-5hDoBniAxxyl2xiUfNbpEmRZUqCRhSIp0BPR4xeC6Ij1twU/w640-h440/CONT-AAPE-JUN2023-800-H.jpg" width="640" /></a></div> <p></p><p>Get International Exposure and Connect with Industry Insiders, Art Collectors and Potential Buyers<br /><br />Each month an amazing photographer will be awarded a Solo Exhibition in our new dedicated showroom pages.

Sneg, an exhibition with photographs by Klavdij Sluban, French artist of
Slovenian origin who is been dedicated to photography since his youth
studying in Paris. He is a tireless traveller who often explores the
routes traced by the railway lines that connect Europe and the East –
such as the Transsiberian Railway – searching for his roots and the
meaning of History. The show will be open until 13 May 2023.<br />
The photographs on display are a selection taken from two series by the author:<em> Autres rivages. La mer Baltique and Japan</em>;
the images are rigorously in black and white, more precisely in film,
black, gray and white, a manual exposure meter at the bottom of a
pocket, rarely used. What the two photographic projects have in common
is a constant and consistent presence: the snow (sneg in Slovenian, the
author’s mother tongue), silent subject of his shots.<br />
The images of <em>Autres rivages</em> are the result of a journey along
the Balkan peninsula and the countries bordering the Baltic Sea: never
completely in focus, they show what appear to be glimpses casually shot
in Poland, Kaliningrad, Finland, Russia, Sweden and other places in the
Eastern Europe. On the other hand, the Japan that Sluban returns with
his photographs is different from what we are used to seeing: neither
well-kept gardens with flowering trees nor skyscrapers, but vast areas
covered with snow that rather resemble remote areas of Eastern Europe,
places seemingly inhospitable, inaccessible, lonely and isolated. In
this background desolation, faces appear at times, motionless as the
snow but full of composure and expressiveness.<br />
For the photographer, the journey turns into a pilgrimage: the focus,
placed on the life that surrounds him, intimately connects the journey
to photography. His personal research is rigorous and coherent, often
filled with literary references. In the words of Sluban: “I propose a
journey in which the eye is guided between the reality of the present
moment and the successive stratifications of History. A journey
nourished by the richness of the past that has permeated the places that
were crossed: St. Petersburg where Nabokov spent his childhood,
Kaliningrad, ancient Köninsberg, the city where Kant and Copernico
lived, making an impact on the philosophic thought of Europe”.</p><p> More information: <a href="http://www.galleriadelcembalo.it/eng/sneg/" target="_blank">HERE</a><br /></p><p> <br /></p>
