« reGeneration2: tomorrow's photographers today » in Saint-Petersburg
The project «reGeneration», produced by Musée de l’Elysée, Lausanne, (Switzerland), is dedicated to discovering and representing emerging young photography. From 2005 to 2009 original exhibition was successfully shown in ten different cities across North America, Europe, and Asia. It received more than 120 000 visitors, who were also able to enjoy the catalogue, that was available in Europe, USA, Korea and Japan.

Following on the success, the latest edition of the Musée de l’Elysée exhibition, which will be presented at Rosphoto, turns the spotlight on 80 up-and-coming talents. They represent 30 countries and 120 of the world's top ... - Exposition
Geoffrey H. Short - Towards Another (Big Bang) Theory
The inherent mystery and ultimate inevitability of death makes it a staple subject of contemplation in philosophy and in art. Risking death means both terror and excitement, and the eighteenth century philosophers Edmund Burke and Immanuel Kant suggested that whatever is terrifying is also sublime.
Geoffrey H. Short's series towards another (big bang) theory is an exploration of risk, terror, beauty and the sublime. The fuel explosion is part of the cinematic vocabulary of special effects and as such is a simulation of terror. (Notably, in these days of computer generated imagery, the best way to simulate an explosion is still with an explosion). Hiring film industry special effects technicians to create "big bangs" on the black sands of New Zealand's west coast, Short uses fossil fuel (with all ... - Exposition

Que font les jeunes photographes en ce début du 21e siècle ? Quel regard portent-ils sur le monde ? Dans quelle mesure s’inscrivent-ils dans la tradition, la développent- ils ou la rejettent-ils ? Alors que la révolution numérique poursuit son implacable avancée, anéantissant les pratiques établies de longue date, et ce dans chaque domaine de la photographie, est-il possible de prédire le chemin que prendra la nouvelle génération de photographes ? Seront-ils encore attachés à la chambre noire ou vont-ils tous migrer vers le laboratoire numérique ?

REGENERATION ² - photographies de demain à Miami
Within the framework of the American tour managed by the Musée de l’Elysée in collaboration with the Aperture Foundation, New York, « reGeneration2 – Tomorrow’s Photographers Today » is presented at the Centre Gallery, Miami Dade College, in Miami.
What are young photographers up to in the twenty-first century? How do they see the world? How much do they respect, build on, or reject tradition? As the digital revolution continues its relentless advance, demolishing longstanding practices in every domain of our field, curiosity builds as to how the new generation of photographers will react. Will some remain in the darkroom, or will they all migrate to the digital lab? The reGeneration project – the broadest and most enterprising survey of its kind – set ...
