Au 250 de l'avenue Bowery, à New York, le Centre international de la photographie (ICP en anglais) ouvrira un nouveau Musée le 23 juin. En guise de baptême, la première exposition, "Public, Private, Secret", portera sur le concept de vie privée dans notre société, à l'heure où chacun a une identité composée d'images sur les réseaux sociaux

Le marché de l'art est ce qu'il est, il est souvent imprévisible. Ainsi, le classement des photographies les plus vendues est souvent surprenant. Pourquoi cette image se vendra mieux que celle-ci, pourquoi ce photographe aura une cote plus importante qu'un autre, difficile de tout comprendre. En revanche, le prix, lui, bien souvent exorbitant, est une preuve incontestable de l'intérêt du public pour certaines œuvres photographiques.
En tête des ventes depuis de nombreuses années, le photographe allemand Andreas Gursky.

L’artiste américaine Cindy Sherman vient de se voir décerner le prix Roswitha Haftmann 2012, doté de 150 000 CHF. Depuis sa première édition en 2001, avec un montant de 150 000 Francs Suisses, c'est le prix artistique le mieux doté d’Europe.
Les directeurs du Kunstmuseum de Berne, du Kunstmuseum de Bâle, du Musée Ludwig de Cologne et du Kunsthaus Zürich et des membres nommés par le conseil de la Fondation composent son jury. Celui-ci a déclaré voir en Cindy Sherman (née en 1954 dans le New Jersey) «la plus importante représentante, après Andy Warhol, de l’introspection filmique et photographique.

Cindy Sherman est une des figures les plus importantes de l’art contemporain, au-delà du seul domaine de la photographie qui est à priori le sien : elle a construit sa réputation internationale sur le travail conjoint, extraordinaire, qu’elle mène sur l’image et son corps depuis trente ans. Se prenant exclusivement pour modèle, elle s’est photographiée sous les aspects et les traits de personnages les plus différents, tout à tour comiques ou dérangeants, déplaisants ou émouvants. Pour élaborer ses photographies, Cindy Sherman assume les multiples rôles d’auteur, de metteur en scène, de maquilleuse de plateau, de coiffeuse et de costumier. Accompagnant une rétrospective majeure de l&rsqu...
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...
Following the survey of photographed sexuality and lust in Darkside I, the other end of the physical spectrum is illuminated: the intimate affinity between death and photography – impairment, disease, degeneration, violence and death, pain, grief and loss. Recording death is, along with war reporting, one of photography’s original tasks. Pictures of horror are often shocking and yet “bestselling”. They provoke questions about exploitation, complicity and power relationships – infront of and behind the camera and in the photograph itself. Photography often provokes accusations that it aestheticizes misery, creating a “pornography of horror”. Enlightenment quickly turns into transfiguration, photographic enlightenment into commerce. Darkside I and II examine Eros and Thanatos in pi...

The three experimental artists examined here all use self-transformation, role playing, and societal commentary as devices to explore identity. Part critical essay and part exhibit catalog (Rice cocurated the show at New York University), this book spans the century through the three women's work, beginning with writer/photographer Cahun, moving ahead with midcentury filmmaker Deren, and closing with contemporary photographer Sherman. The enlightening contributions by well-known art critics and writers range from an academic discussion of lesbianism as a cultural determinate of Cahun's approach, to a diaristic examination of Deren, to a narrative role play exploring intent in Sherman's work. Also included is the full text of Cahun's farcical "Heroines," published here in its entirety for the first time. Reproductions are...
Cindy Sherman's photographs are almost immediately recognizable. Using herself as the model, she assumes numerous disguises to portray "characters" both fictional and famous, or to reinvent situations both commonplace and extraordinary. The consistency of her form and her adoption of familiar images and icons has earned her work a reputation for accessibility. But Sherman's popularity in no way detracts from her status as one of her generation's most accomplished photographers. From her early "Untitled Film Stills" to her more recent "Sex Pictures" Cindy Sherman continues to challenge, surprise, provoke and delight us with her unique interpretations of the media, culture, and gender. This retrospective volume offers a generous sampling of two decades of Sherman's work. In more than 200 color and black and white images it...
One of Sherman's most popular series - the Centerfolds were created in 1981 as a special project for Artforum at the invitation of Ingrid Sischy who was then the Editor. Composed by Sherman to utilize the "centerfold" format of the magazine, the 12 images feature self-portraits, which fill the frame. In the end Artforum chose not to run them, but they have since become both an integral point in the oeuvre of Sherman and a part of our contemporary visual iconography. The 12 images are featured in this handsome hardcover catalogue. Lisa Phillips, Director of The New Museum of Contemporary Art contributes the text. Issued in a relatively small print run this book should only increase in value over time.

From Publishers Weekly
Sherman's provocative and much-discussed Untitled Film Stills series, created between 1977 and 1980, is collected for the first time in this 9.5" x 11.25" volume from MoMA, which purchased the entire set of 69 shots in 1995. Sherman's mysterious and perplexing "portraits" should not really be called "self," since Sherman appears solely in the guises of others, donning the clothing, wigs and makeup of various female '50s and '60s film "types" (the forgotten wife, the boozy hussy, the working girl, etc.) and elevating the art of playing dress-up to a whole new level. In her disarmingly honest introduction to the book, Sherman says of the European film stars like Simone Signoret, Sophia Loren or Jeanne Moreau, from whom she drew her inspiration, "What I was interested in was when they were almost exp...

La photographie n'en finit plus de prendre de la valeur sur le marché de l'art. Le 11 mai 2011, lors de la vente organisée par Christie's New York, cet autoportrait de Cindy Sherman - Cindy Sherman, Untitled, color coupler print, 1981 - a été vendu pour la somme de 3,890,500 dollars, soit 2 748 498 euros. Un montant qui en fait non seulement un record personnel pour la photographe américaine (qui, en 2007, avait établi un record mondial en vendant une photo 112 000 $), mais tout simplement la photo la plus chère jamais vendue dans une salle de vente, dépassement largement son estimation de 1,5 - 2 millions de dollars.

The Broad’s first special exhibition is a comprehensive survey of the work of artist Cindy Sherman. Cindy Sherman: Imitation of Life is the first major museum show of Sherman’s work in Los Angeles in nearly 20 years, and the exhibition fills The Broad’s first-floor galleries with 120 works drawn primarily from the Broad collection with key loans from other institutions.
“Cindy Sherman’s work has been a touchstone for the Broad collection since Eli and Edye Broad first encountered it in 1982, and Cindy is the only artist in the collection whose work we’ve acquired so deeply and regularly, for more than 30 years,” said Joanne Heyler, founding director of The Broad. “There are 127 Cindy Sherman photographs in the Broad collection, the largest holding of her work in the worl...
The exhibition "Cindy Sherman – Works from the Olbricht Collection" features 65 photographs by the artist. Including works from almost all periods of her career, the collection provides a remarkable overview of the entire body of work.
Variously casting herself as an ingénue at the sink in black-and-white of the 1950s, a goldblonde "Maria Lactans" with a vacant expression and plastic breast, or an aging upper-class beauty wearing far too much jewelry and much too much makeup, American artist Cindy Sherman is a master of masquerade. Throughout her career she has simultaneously acted as her own actress and photographer, subject and object. And yet her portraits do not represent actual personalities. Instead they paraphrase social and cultural stereotypes with the aim of deconstructing th...

The first major Australian solo exhibition in more than 15 years of work by the renowned New York based artist Cindy Sherman will open at Brisbane’s Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA) from 28 May to 3 October this year.
Cindy Sherman is one of the most recognised and influential artists of our time, who across her career has produced an astonishing number of character studies, experimenting with costume, prosthetics, makeup and digital photography to embellish and manipulate photographs in which she enacts her subjects in highly constructed images.
Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art Director (QAGOMA) Chris Saines said in addition to six important photographic series produced by the American artist since 2000, the exhibition will feature an entirely new body of work created this year and shown...

From Edward Steichen’s iconic portrait of silent film star Gloria Swanson (1924) to Annie Leibovitz’s influential gatefold covers for Vanity Fair’s annual Hollywood issue (1995-2014), this multimedia exhibition offers a sweeping, yet considered view of photography’s role in defining glamour since the 1920s. Drawing on prints from the RIC’s Black Star Collection of photoreportage and the holdings of George Eastman House in Rochester, New York, among other collections, Burn with Desire provides a historical and visual chronology encompassing Hollywood studio portraits as well as red-carpet and film set photographs. Additionally, a series of artistic projects, including works by Richard Avedon, Cindy Sherman, Mickalene Thomas, and Andy Warhol, demonstrate a more...

The central exhibition in the 50JPG seeks to question the documentary character of photography. We all seem to share the assumption that anyone producing optical images is providing testimony on the tangible world. But this positivistic, pro-scientific nineteenth-century belief has been shaken by the ‘derealisation’ of our lives and the increasingly spectacle-oriented quality of news in contemporary capitalist society. Moreover, that process includes artists like Jeff Wall and Cindy Sherman who reverse the usual codes in photography.

La photographie est auréolée jusqu’à aujourd’hui d’une réputation de fournisseur de preuves irréfutable, tant que la croyance en son pouvoir de témoignage perdure. Apparue au 19eme siècle, elle prend du crédit au service des sciences, comme par exemple de l’histoire, de l’histoire de l’art, d...
En 1972, à l’âge de 18 ans, Cindy Sherman commence à étudier la peinture au Buffalo State College. Elle change de département en 1975 pour se consacrer à la photographie, et termine ses études en été 1976. Un an plus tard, l’artiste quitte Buffalo pour s’installer à New York. Contrairement à une croyance largement répandue, les Untitled Film Stills (1977-1980) ne sont pas ses premiers travaux. En effet, durant ses années à Buffalo, entre 1975 et 1977, elle développe des travaux qui seront le fondement de son œuvre à venir. Au cours de ces trois années se constitue la genèse de l’œuvre de l’artiste.

From July 14 to October 8, 2012, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) will host the sole West Coast presentation of Cindy Sherman, a traveling retrospective of one of the most significant contemporary artists and arguably the most influential one working exclusively with photography. Known for photographing herself in a range of guises and personas that are by turns amusing and disturbing, distasteful and affecting, Sherman has built an international reputation for an extraordinary body of work. Tracing her career from the mid-1970s to present, the exhibition is the first major U.S. retrospective of the artist in nearly 15 years, introducing Sherman to a new generation of audiences.

In honor of its Ehrenkranz Director Willis Hartshorn, the International Center of Photography presents an engaging survey of its vast and unique collection of photographs.
Founded in 1975, as part of the original concept for the Center, the photograph collection at ICP now contains well over 100,000 photographs, ranging from the 1840s to the present.
This provocative selection by ICP Chief Curator Brian Wallis is an investigation of the aesthetics and uses of photographic images, and includes well-loved classics as well as little-known works by anonymous photographers.
One of the hallmarks of the collection is a focus on alternative histories of photography, including marginalized social practices of photography as well as popular and nonart approaches to the medium.

The Museum of Modern Art, New York, presents the exhibition Cindy Sherman, a retrospective tracing the groundbreaking artist's career from the mid-1970s to the present. The exhibition brings together some 170 key photographs from the artist's significant series—including the complete "Untitled Film Stills" (1977–80), centerfolds (1981), and the celebrated history portraits (1988–90)—plus examples from all of her most important bodies of work, ranging from her fashion photography of the early 1980s to the breakthrough sex pictures of 1992 to her 2003–04 clowns and monumental 2008 society portraits. In addition, the exhibition features the American premiere of her 2010 photographic mural, presented outside the entrance to the galleries on the Museum's sixth floor.

Lorsque les premières cabines de photomaton furent installées à Paris en 1928, les surréalistes en firent un usage intensif et compulsif. En quelques minutes, et pour une somme modique, la machine leur offrait, dans le domaine du portrait, une expérience similaire à celle de l’écriture automatique. Depuis, des générations d’artistes ont été fascinées par le principe du photomaton. De Andy Warhol à Arnulf Rainer, en passant par Thomas Ruff, Cindy Sherman, ou Gillian Wearing, ils sont nombreux à s’être emparé du photomaton pour jouer avec leur identité, raconter des histoires, ou faire des mondes.
Derrière le rideau - L’Esthétique Photomaton, une création...
The 40 works range from early black and white photographs to the classic icons of American color photography.
A number of great photographers played a large role in forming and defining the American Myth. The discovery of everyday aspects of American life was decisive in this: cities and symbols, cars, signs, billboards, advertising, telephone poles, parking lots and barbershops.
People are a second aspect of the wide-ranging exhibition, from the years of the Great Depression to impressive portraits of celebrities.
The comparison of almost a century of American photographs results in an interesting structure of similarities and contrasts, which are balanced through the selective choice of images.
The exhibition begins with works of the early 20th century by Paul Strand and Berenice Abbott, who both show ...

The fall of 2010 marks the opening of the unprecedented exhibition 'Thrice upon a time.' This is the largest exhibition to date with artworks taken exclusively from the Magasin 3 collection. It is presented in three parallel chapters featuring a total of 202 works, all of which have not previously been shown at Magasin 3. 66 artists ranging from Absalon to Zetterquist fill the exhibition spaces with photography, drawing, painting, film and sculpture. Key works by established artists are shown alongside pieces by artists who have not previously exhibited in Sweden. Together these works give an unsurpassable insight into the Magasin 3 collection.
In the three different parts curators Elisabeth Millqvist, Tessa Praun and Richard Julin each present their...
Since its inception in 2004 the Sammlung Verbund focuses on the feminist art movement of the 1970s as one of the main areas of collecting. In keeping with its maxim, "Depth before Breadth", the fruits of this particular focus are now for the first time presented in Italy. The Galleria nazionale d'arte moderna in Rome shows an exhibition entitled DONNA: FEMINIST AVANT-GARDE OF THE 1970s from Sammlung Verbund, Vienna.
The director of the collection, Gabriele Schor, has taken the initiative and deliberately designated the feminist art movement of the 1970s as Feminist Avant-Garde, in order to emphasise its trailblazing role, as it is, like no other art movement in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, a decisive force in shaping contemporary art production. The Feminist Avant-Garde is still an open field and ...
L'exposition « C’est la vie!! - Vanités de Caravage à Damien Hirst! », présentera environ 160 oeuvres, peintures, sculptures, photographies, vidéos, bijoux, objets.
"C’est la vie !
Jamais l’art des vanités n’a été aussi vivant, accaparé par la mode, la musique ou la rue. Crânes et ossements envahissent notre quotidien et s’affichent sur les vêtements, les bijoux, les figurines de publicité, les vidéos et autres pochettes de CD. A l’origine de cet élan, une petite phrase qui résonne et se démultiplie : « Souvienstoi que tu vas mourir », chuchotait l’esclave à l’oreille du général romain pendant la cérémonie...
L’esposizione, nata da un progetto del CCCS, con la consulenza scientifica di Brett Rogers (direttore della Photographers' Gallery di Londra), Luminita Sabau (direttrice della collezione di fotografia contemporanea DZ Bank, Germania), Martino Marangoni (direttore della Fondazione Marangoni di Firenze) e Franziska Nori (project director del CCCS), focalizzerà la propria attenzione sul significato del termine ‘realtà’ nelle ricerche artistiche contemporanee che sviluppano diverse possibilità visive di rappresentare il mondo nell’ambiguità tra reale e verosimile, concreto e apparente, presente e passato.
Le diverse discipline scientifiche hanno già definito un cambiamento paradigmatico, affermando che il “mondo reale” non esiste come categoria autonom...
The exhibition, the idea for which came from a CCCS project that availed itself of the scientific advice of Brett Rogers (director of the Photographers' Gallery, London), Luminita Sabau (director of the DZ Bank collection of contemporary photography in Germany), Martino Marangoni (director of the Fondazione Marangoni, Florence) and Franziska Nori (project director with the CCCS), will be focusing on the meaning of the term "reality" in contemporary artistic research, as it explores different ways of visually representing the world in the ambiguity that lies between the real and the verisimilar, the concrete and the apparent, the present and the past.
Several different scientific disciplines have already defined a paradigmatic change when they contend that the "real world" does not exist as an indep...
Following the investigation of photographed sexuality and desire in Darkside I, Fotomuseum Winterthur focuses now on the other extreme of the bodily spectrum, charting the path from the body as a veritable ‘picture of health’ to the body injured, disfigured or mutilated, in decline and decay. This raises questions: Why is there an intimate affinity between photography and death? Why does violence attract images? The visual world of western culture is full of images of violence – both random outbursts of violence and military violence, regulative state violence. In a strange reversal, societies have shut away images of life-affirming, life-giving sexuality, banishing them to the fringes of obscurity, whereas images of dark and excessive violence have been brought into the light. The reasons for this are ...
For a number of years we have been gathering together a collection of photographs which has evolved into a substantial group, but has never been shown publicly. A selection of which we would now like to present in our exhibition 'Selected photographs. From Brassaï to Cindy Sherman'.
Our intentions are to provide a wide and representative cross section of our inventory, beginning in the late 1920s and continuing up to the present day. We focus on American and European photography; black and white, as well as color. We have chosen works - in addition to the significance of the individual artists according to certain central themes: the nude, landscapes, portraits and architecture, to name the most prominent.
Brassaï and Cindy Sherman are representative of the chronology of our selection, the ...
Depuis les portraits en noir & blanc de Diane Arbus, Harry Callahan et August Sander, jusqu’aux oeuvres en couleur d’artistes contemporains tels Serge Comte, Thomas Ruff et Cindy Sherman, l’exposition «Face à face» propose une variation autour de la représentation de l’individu, de son visage comme de son attitude, à travers laquelle affleurent les notions d’identité.
Ouvert mardi et vendredi de 16h à 18h, mercredi de 10h à 13h et de 14h à 18h, samedi de 10h30 à 13h et de 14h à 16h30...
Since the invention of photography more than 170 years ago it has been largely women who have used this technical medium to project themselves through role playing and masquerading. As well as the experimental urge to constantly recreate ones ego, the camera has also served as a means of calling into question clichés of female representation. Playing with the image of the eternally feminine was and remains a discourse with gender identity, its social and political definitions and reaching beyond them.
The exhibition focuses on contemporary women artists such as Cindy Sherman, Sarah Lucas, Monica Bonvicini and Pipilotti Rist, who with the aid of photography and video art investigate the female image. The artists explore the question of what image patterns the media age employs for portraying femininity and how t...
This exhibition presents the diversity and high quality of the Astrup Fearnley Collection, which has developed into one of Scandinavia’s finest collections of international contemporary art. In this exhibition we present new acquisitions by younger artists, mainly Americans, who have entered the international art scene since 2000. You can also experience works by Jeff Koons, Cindy Sherman, Richard Prince, Bruce Nauman and others who established their artistic practice in the 1980s and ‘90s.
The exhibition features artists like Lizzi Bougatsos, Corin Hewitt, Terence Koh and Klara Lidén, who express themselves through diverse media such as sculpture, drawing, video, painting and photography. These artists often take their point of departure in existing visual material, yet in addition to appropriating...

From June 15 until September 17, 2007 the Martin-Gropius-Bau in Berlin will be presenting the major Cindy Sherman retrospective arranged by the Jeu de Paume in Paris. The exhibition comprises works produced by the artist between 1975 and 2005.
The American artist Cindy Sherman is one of the leading representatives of staged photography. In her photographs she uses her body as a vehicle for creating all sorts of roles and staging masquerades. By combining the roles of film director, main protagonist and photographer, she blurs the strict dividing lines between posing and viewing, between object and subject. Sherman was born in Glen Ridge, a suburb of New York, in 1954. She attended the State University of New York in Buffalo where she originally studied painting before switching to photography. During this time she got...
Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers are delighted to exhibit 'A Play of Selves,' Cindy Sherman's seminal work from 1975 at their Grafton Street gallery in London.
In the introduction to the recently published catalogue for 'A Play of Selves' (Hatje Cantz, 2007), Sherman states: "This is the only work I've ever done that was consciously autobiographical."
American photographer and film-maker Cindy Sherman, born 1954 in New Jersey is known for her conceptual self-portraits in which she fully transforms herself into different personas with the use of make-up, costumes, play acting and even prosthesis. Sherman's work questions visual representation by addressing the false naturalness of photography, in particular the images of women which are promoted by mass culture such as movies, television and magazines as reality....
Throughout the thirty years Cindy Sherman (b. 1954 in Glen Ridge, New Jersey) has worked as an artist,
she has almost exclusively used herself as a model. Sherman stages, directs and photographs herself in ever-changing disguises which are not, however, self-portraits. Each picture reflects a new identity taken from
the mass media's stereotyped views of women.
Sherman manipulates her own body by means of make-up, clothes and artificial body parts, staging herself
as various figures that she invents or re-invents, after which she photographs herself in her studio. Sherman's idiom varies from the amusing and humorous through the shrill to the brutal. Each series has its theme and several variations on the same idiom. Her intention with these self-stagings is to explore cultural and social stereotypes as they are ...

Depuis ses tout premiers travaux il y a plus de trente ans, Cindy Sherman se sert presque exclusivement de sa propre personne comme modèle et support de ses mises en scène. Série après série, elle figure, à l'aide d'accessoires divers (maquillage, vêtements, prothéses) des personnages qu'elle invente et photographie en studio. Ce faisant, elle accomplit une des œuvres majeures de notre époque, une des premières, avec celle de Jeff Wall, à être entièrement réalisée avec la photographie comme support.
Tour à tour drôle, grinçante, parfois brutale, cette œuvre met en scène une ga...
Dans le cadre du "Printemps de septembre à Toulouse" le Château d'Eau présente l'oeuvre récente de Cindy Sherman. Derrière le masque du clown, elle a réalisé une série de photographies stridentes, grinçantes et vertigineuses. Ce travail opère telle une métaphore des rapports sociaux mais aussi du rôle supplétif dans lequel l'art et l'artiste restent trop souvent confinés. La fête continue et comme souvent, l'on rit de ce qui n'a plus rien de risible.
