Fred Stein présente son "Paris/New York" à la Robert Mann Gallery

Des trains à la trace pour Jeff Brouws
A la fin de l'année 2009, Warren Buffett créa des titres pour investir dans l'industrie ferroviaire, marquant par cela son empreinte dans la confiance du marché.

Into the Sun presents new works from Elijah Gowin's most recent series. Gowin's work has always been simultaneously engaged with questions around belief, ritual and memory as well as the material status of photographic representation. As critic Lyle Rexer writes, "Elijah Gowin is the prophet of this longing, the diviner of such dreams. His work confronts the impenetrability of the world and the challenge of representing it."

At the Waters Edge, at the Robert Mann Gallery.
From baptisms to beach getaways, the water's edge is a site for transformations. With this threshold as its inspiration, Robert Mann Gallery's summer exhibition At the Water's Edge includes both historical and contemporary images engaged with those recurrent summer traditions of flocking to the water, either manmade or natural, for a much needed respite. It is no wonder then that the shoreline and the swimming pool have provided numerous photographers with inspiration.
In works by Julie Blackmon and Jeff Brouws, the exciting world of poolside fantasy is rev...
