Mapplethorpe x7 - Editions TeNeues
L’influence artistique de Robert Mapplethorpe n’a cessé de grandir depuis sa mort précoce en 1989.
Récemment, pendant une période de 7 ans, 7 artistes extraordinaires - David Hockney, Vik Muniz, Catherine Opie, Sterling Ruby, Cindy Sherman, Heidi Slimane et Robert Wilson - se sont penchés sur la totalité du travail du photographe, pour sélectionner les œuvres qui les touchaient le plus. Cette sélection a généré des expositions documentées dans ce livre, et une série d’interviews conduites par Richard Flood, conservateur du New Museum of Contempory Art de New York. Cet ouvrage complet offre ainsi un nouveau regard sur le génie du travail de Robert Mapplerthorpe, et sur son impact sur l’art c... - Exposition
Through women's eyes : From Diane Arbus to Letizia Battaglia. Passion and courage.
The work of twenty-five photographers has been chosen to direct the viewer's gaze and mind onto a world of diversity, responsibility, compassion, and justice. Antonio Marras has designed the exhibition’s layout in such a way as to transport the viewer into the very heart of the stories that can be read along the walls. The layout is itself an experience within the experience of the exhibition, a fundamental element in the narrative, creating a relationship between the venue’s spaces and the photographic works.
"Through women’s eyes" is a powerful exhibition that speaks about the care lavished on relationships, about our relationship with the other, and about ways of gazing on and observing the world—and where the premise is an innate sense of responsibility. It is also an ambitiou... - Exposition

Catherine Opie at Regen Projects
Regen Projects is pleased to announce an exhibition of new portraits and landscapes by Catherine Opie. These photographs mark both a progression and a departure for the artist. Opie's work has always investigated the figure in relation to the landscape, disregarding the polarities typically found within these approaches. This new body of work draws upon Opie's beginnings in documentary photography, the traditions of painting, and the history of photography.

LE PARADIS, OU PRESQUE LOS ANGELES 1865-2008
L.A. ou si vous préférez Los Angeles, la cité des anges... et des démons. Pour quelques chanceux, L.A. est synonyme de soleil, de plage, de piscine, de corps sains et bronzés. Pour les autres, L.A. n'est souvent qu'une concentration d'autoroutes encombrées, de pollutions et de peurs de toutes sortes. C'est une ville sans centre et sans âme... Là-haut, dans les cieux, règnent les stars d'Hollywood; mais ici-bas, les habitants craignent un nouveau tremblement de terre ou le déclenchement d'émeutes. Rêve ou cauchemar? Réalité ou fiction? La vérité sur ce lieu mythique et fascinant se situe peut-être entre les deux.
Los Angeles, ville à multiples facettes, est adorée des photographes de tout...
