Schengen is a small wine making village in Luxembourg which shares a border with the German Saarland and the French Lorraine. It is here that the agreement to eliminate the inner-European border checks of the Schengen Area was signed. And yet today this symbolic place of international understanding as well as the successful co-existence of different cultures and nationalities has, in the truest sense of the word, run up against its borders.

Horizon

Horizon

8 Mar – 21 Apr 2018
A room full of Bert Danckaert photographs resembles a gallery of paintings. The works are large, and, at first glance, many of them seem to be composed of simple organic or geometric shapes of flat color classically arranged within the ubiquitous and intuitive photographic rectangle. We are reminded of Mark Rothko, rather than Walker Evans.

A closer examination reveals random remnants of human activity and its detritus with the encyclopedic detail that only photography can render. There is no d… more

12 Sep – 15 Sep 2017


Hiroyuki Masuyama is known in Luxembourg for his William Turner series.

His love for nature has inspired him to create a series of lightboxes, which emphasize the merging of temporal and spacial perspectives into a new visual impression, challenging conventional viewing habits. With his series "Flowers", he allows us to imagine Place de Clairefontaine as a magical blooming meadow.

This is his way of reminding us to respect our environment, in order to avoid the necessity of creati… more

Starting out with the serious topic of our world’s ongoing political crises, the portrayal of Asya taken in 1996 by Stanley Greene (who unfortunately passed away very recently) has become an icon of women’s fate in war today.

Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji

27 Apr – 27 May 2017


These photographs are inspired by the famous set of woodcuts "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji" Katsushika Hokusai produced between 1830 and 1832. Despite the wide variety of shown scenes, most of Hokusai’s colour prints share a common structure. In the foreground people are going about their daily business, the middle ground refers to a different time-scale like seasons or things decaying, and finally a glimpse of mount Fuji hints at changes too slow to be perceived during a hum… more

"Havana is a photographic challenge. Even those who have never been there have this picturesque image conveyed by photography and cinema: people nonchalantly leaning against their old American cars, pampered with love, or framing themselves in the windows of colonial houses with fallen splendor and with scaly plaster - and always in these powerful colors so typical of the Caribbean.

Yvon Lambert did not succumb to the temptation of this "morbid charm" of Havana. His medium of … more

7 Sep – 15 Oct 2016
Born in London in 1919 and brought up in Paris, John Stewart came to photography in the early 1950s, after a chance meeting with Picasso in the French village of Vallauris. Stewart’s request to photograph the artist sitting in a field of tall grass was granted and a few days later, he received an invitation to photograph Matisse in Nice. This was the beginning of a stellar career that saw Stewart go to work in New York under the celebrated director of Harper’s Bazaar, Alexei Brodovit… more

About twenty years ago Elliott Erwitt half retired. He reined in what he calls "assignment photography" - magazine photojournalism, corporate image making, and advertising - to devote his energies full time to what he calls his "hobby", the personal pictures that long time Museum of Modern Art photography department director John Szarkowski called "unmemorable occasions [where] Erwitt has distilled with wit and clarity and grace, the indecisive moment".

European Month of Photography

Giacomo Costa uses digital technology to generate a futuristic urban landscape. These fantastic, apocalyptic images borrow their aesthetic from science fiction literature and film, where architecture takes on a colossal scale. Pulverized landscapes and lonely structures that inhabit anonymous cities are constant elements in his series, a metaphor for the depersonalization that affects the contemporary metropolis whose buildings soar above the human scale.
