Pieter Henket moved to the United States in 1998, where he studied Documentary Film at the New York Film Academy. After working for the renowned director Joel Schumacher, his fascination for capturing a story in a single shot pulled him towards photography instead of filmmaking. As a self-taught photographer, he is known for his alluring portraits of some the biggest stars in the world, both for his commercial work as well as in his personal, autonomous projects. It is his careful lighting and staging, with strong cinematographic characteristics, which define his signature. With his portraits, Henket manages to capture the very essence of the individual. His strengts lie beyond portraiture however, as his book Stars to the Sun shows. Here, portraits of the visitors of the Carnaval de Rio are mixed with scenes of the festival and stunning shots of Argentinean nature.
Stars to the Sun shows us a different aspect of Henket as an artist. For this series, Henket travelled to the Carnaval de Rio, a thrilling spectacle of dance and people, taking place every year in San Luis, a city in the mountains of Argentina. The resulting works are a mixture of imposing landscapes, electrifying scenes of the carnaval and intimate portraits of the visitors of the festival, shot in a small tent in the midst of the festivities. All of these combined capture the soul of the festival and the essence of being human: being able to connect with each other and celebrate life.
Henket has worked for magazines such as The New York Times Magazine, Harper’s Bazaar and Esquire. His work has been exhibited at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and in 2013 he was honored with a major solo-exhibition at Museum de Fundatie in Zwolle. His work has been included in numerous private and museum collections around the world. |

After "0/1 Data Flow" (2004), "Global Soul" (2008) and "The Third Day" (2013), Henrik Spohler’s new photographic project "In Between" is the fourth part of a series on modern traffic of data and goods.
"In essence", says Spohler in conversation with author and curator Peter Lindhorst on the occasion of the presentation of the work during the last Triennial of Photography in Hamburg, "it is about the almost absurd omnipresence of goods - as a sign of globalization. If you order a pair of slippers online today, you will find them on your doorstep tomorrow, no matter whether they were made in Taiwan or South Tyrol. Goods, raw material and industrial products are available almost everywhere and at any time. World-wide logistics have become the backbone of business. The project investigates places of transit. Interfaces of logistics such as ports and freight airports or facilities that have formed along trade routes. Areas corresponding only to economic needs, void of any reference to place, continent or country. The photographs show the backside of industrial production and economic activity, seemingly fictional images of nameless places." |

Reflections on Public and Private Life in Contemporary Javanese Photography |

| |
|

Organized by the Johnson Museum, this exhibition is the first in the United States to focus on the recent emergence of photography as an art form in Java, Indonesia. Guest curated by photographer Brian Arnold, Identity Crisis is the culmination of years of research and consultation with artists, curators, publishers, and educators in Java. The ten artists included pursue investigations of personal or cultural identity, and use photography to probe, obscure, or heighten questions and curiosities about being Javanese or Indonesian today.
Whether looking at their personal histories, cultural or institutional histories, or documenting broader social diversity, each artist attempts to bring greater clarity to fundamental issues. Krisna Murti’s Video Hijab shows twelve Indonesian women wearing twelve different forms of Islamic clothing that signal the freedom of expression allowed to each wearer. Photographs by Wimo Ambala Bayang and Jim Allen Abel depict a cross section of Javanese society in playful and critical ways that obscure their individual identities to comment on social structures in contemporary Indonesia. Angki Purbandono spent a year photographing the homeless and mentally ill people living on the streets of Yogyakarta to create his book, Beyond Versace, that profoundly remarks on urban power and privilege while giving voice to people typically neglected in popular consciousness. Arum Tresnaningtyas Dayaputri’s photographs and zines delve into the nuances of social interactions through documentation of the popular music known as dangdut. |

Thomas Brummett is an artist who is on a journey that follows two intertwined paths. Thoughtful and patient, he is on a quest to discover the essence of the natural world by focusing on the immediate before him—a twig, a fleeing light beam. He is also an explorer of the medium of photography, experimenting with the myriad ways of making an image with light and marks on the surface of light sensitive paper. All Brummett’s work is from his lifelong series Rethinking the Natural.
Born in Colorado in 1955, Brummett matured with an appreciation of arid deserts and soaring mountains. He was educated in ceramics and photography at the Colorado State University (BFA, 1979) and the Cranbrook Academy of Art in Michigan, (MFA, 1982), after which he settled in Philadelphia and had a daughter. Raised in a Christian (Episcopalian) family that includes several members of the clergy, after reaching adulthood and traveling to India and Asia, Brummett found that the journey described in Western Abrahamic religions had lost its meaning for him, and he was drawn to Eastern Taoist/Buddhist theology. Rather than embarking on a pilgrimage of transcendence to a Deity who resides above and independent from the universe, Brummett found himself following Eastern monastic traditions that embark on a journey of immanence—intense observation of the world at hand. Such intense focus on the immediate resonates with the scientific method, and thus it is not surprising that Taoist/Buddhist thought permeates modern science and mathematics, as in the writings of Austrian logician Ludwig Wittgenstein who wrote: “the place I must get to is the place where I already am” (Culture and Value, 1930). This mix of meditative practices and modern science is a thread running through Brummett’s art. |

"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 expression is black and white photography, which, lacking the descriptive character of color, but attracts our attention elsewhere. Much more than a simple inventory, these photographs of Havana are an attempt to dialogue with the city and its inhabitants. Yvon Lambert stayed there several times between 1996 and 2000. And over time, these encounters have gained in density, the curiosity and interest of the beginning leaving room for a kind of familiarity with the protagonists. (Text Sylvia Böhmer, Book "Lizards" Karla Suarez, Yvon Lambert, Edition HUSSON). |

The impressive photographs show Fidel Castro and Che Guevara as the heroes of the Cuban Revolution of 1959-60. They are an exceptional example of photojournalism’s role in chronicling history.
Photographers such as Burri, Korda and Naranjo record political events, and offer a glimpse behind the scenes in the corridors of power. |

Howard Schatz is an award-winning photographer who has received international acclaim for his portrait photography and work in various genres including studies of dancers, athletes, and human body. The photographs of Howard Schatz are exhibited extensively around the world and are included in the collections of numerous museums such as International Center of Photography, Oakland Museum and Musee de L'Elysee amongst others. His work has appeared in countless magazines throughout the world, including Vanity Fair, Vogue, The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker, TIME, Sports Illustrated, US News and World Report, and GQ Italia.
It is worth noting that such a success in photography was preceded by an academic career as a retina specialist. Schatz completed his medical degree at The University of Illinois College of Medicine and worked for many years as an ophthalmologist in San Francisco, CA, before turning to photography, his second career and passion. His first profession had a strong impact on his photographic methods teaching him to look precisely at the people and to make approach to everybody. “Dancers”, “Athletes”, “Human Body”, “Folds” and “Motion Studies” series offer a detailed study of the human physique in between science and aesthetic dimension. |

Under the title "lebenswelt / life-world" the Alexander Tutsek-Stiftung in Munich shows contemporary sculptures by Japanese artists as well as photographs by Rinko Kawauchi. The subjective experience of everyday life, temporal processes in nature, and interpersonal communication are central to the artworks.
Rinko Kawauchi (born in Shiga, Japan in 1972) is a renowned artist in her native country. In Europe and the USA only insiders know her photographs, in which she transforms daily life or nature into something breathtaking and new. The exhibition shows large-scale photographs from the series "Ametsuchi". By reference to the destructive and at the same time rejuvenating power of fire, reduced landscape images depicting the traditional controlled slash-and-burn land clearance address the relationship between people, nature, and time. In addition, the exhibition presents small intimate photographs from the series "Illuminance". Here Rinko Kawauchi focuses on gentle sometimes also disturbing things or activities of daily life—based on her personal experiences. In her choice of details and perspectives and the subtle use of natural light in combination with often translucent colors, Rinko Kawauchi has found a very personal, distinctive language for her photography. Her groups of works allow viewers to see their everyday surroundings with new eyes, with greater consciousness, and a broader perspective. |

Edwynn Houk Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of Valérie Belin’s newest series, All Star. The exhibition of eleven large-scale color photographs will be on view 19 January - 4 March 2017.
For this series, Belin utilizes the fantastical world of vintage comic books as the inspiration for multilayered portraits that are both visually and psychologically complex. To create the works, Belin first styles and photographs her models in dramatic lighting reminiscent of film noir. Then, selecting from an extensive collection of vintage comics, she overlays the image with the chosen comic cover before further abstracting the pictorial surface with her own graphic patterns. Bursting in from the background, the worlds of the comics interweave with the texture of the portraits to create a sophisticated composition in which variations of movement, line, depth of field and scale are all combined within one surface.
The series continues Belin’s investigations of the ideas of surface, beauty, artifice, and disorder that have become consistent themes in her practice; however, in this new body of work she takes her considerations further to explore the disarray of not only the physical but also a mental world that is chaotic, saturated, and obsessive. |

What if Stéphane Duroy’s work was an exile? After forty years of obsessive wandering in the footsteps of old Europe as far as the United States, Stéphane Duroy today seems pushed by a wind of renewal, towards a photographic praxis taken ever further from itself.
"L’Europe du silence", a ground-breaking work embarked upon by the photographer in the 1980s, comes across as an attempt to set out to encounter great History. Constructed in a long-term movement, this series records the vision of man in search of his identity and the memory of an Europe shaken by two world wars and many different totalitarian aberrations.
Since 1977, he has also been facing up to another reality, that of the human factor, of people left out, workers and dropouts plunged into the distress of a Thatcherite Britain undergoing profound changes. The book "Distress", which was published late in 2011, is the culmination of an immersion spanning more than 30 years in a profoundly battered country. |
