Mercredi 7 décembre, le Time révélait sa nouvelle couverture : Trump, nommé « personnalité de l’année », posant dans ses appartements new-yorkais pour le photographe Nadav Kander. Très vite, une polémique sur les « cornes rouges » du président a enflammé les réseaux sociaux.
En découvrant la une du Time, les lecteurs du magazine américain se sont enflammés. La troisième lettre du titre, un imposant M rouge, vient se poser sur la tête du milliardaire. Pour les partisans de Trump comme pour ses opposants, il est évident que le magazine a volontairement donné une paire de corne au futur président des Etats-Unis. Les anti-Trump applaudissent ce &laqu...

Kofi Annan remet la somme de 100 000 francs suisses (60 000 livres sterling) à Nadav Kander, lauréat du Prix Pictet, prix de photographie dédié au développement durable
Kofi Annan, prix Nobel de la paix et ancien secrétaire général des Nations unies, a remis aujourd’hui au Passage de Retz, à Paris, le prestigieux Prix Pictet, prix de photographie international consacré au développement durable, au photographe basé en Grande-Bretagne Nadav Kander. Une commande photographique a également été attribuée au photographe américain Ed Kashi.
Le Prix Pictet représente tous les ans une quête à la recherche de photographies qui communiquent des messages forts d’envergure ...
Prix Pictet Honorary President Kofi Annan will present the award to the winner of the Prix Pictet 2009 at the Passage de Retz gallery in Paris on 22 October. This is the second year running that the former Secretary-General of the United Nations has agreed to bestow the prize. Speaking at the 2008 award ceremony Kofi Annan said “Each artist has addressed the environmental and social challenges we face in their own personal way. The result is a series of powerful images, which seek to confront us with the scale of the threat we face, and to inspire governments, business, - and all of us as individuals -to step up to the challenge and support change for a sustainable world..”...
La planche-contact est la première concrétisation physique du travail d'un photographe. Sa première confrontation avec son travail et ses idées. L'étape qui suit, celle de la sélection à partir de la planche-contact, est décisive. Lorsque le spectateur apprécie une œuvre photographique, il ne réalise pas que le cliché qu'il a sous les yeux a été choisi précisément au milieu de beaucoup d'autres, et que, très souvent, c'est uniquement un petit détail qui a pu faire basculer le choix de l'artiste.
49 photographes développent ici l'histoire d'un de leurs clichés à travers des anecdotes, des détails techniques ou leur processus cré...
In 2006, drawn to the immense scale of China and its development, Nadav Kander embarked on the project of photographing the Yangtze River, whose banks and waterways provide home and livelihood for hundreds of millions of Chinese. Taken along the river from its source in remote western China to its mouth just off the shores of Shanghai, these photographs depict the human footprint of habitat and industry that can be seen along the shores of China’s longest river.
Taken over a three-year period, Kander’s Yangtze River photographs speak of a China in the process of radical change, and of man’s futility and subjugation of the natural world in the pursuit of development. Following the course of China’s longest river upstream, Kander created a profound and contemplative body of pictures. Much like th...
Now in its second year, the Prix Pictet, awarded by the Swiss Private Bank Pictet & Cie, aims to use photography to educate audiences worldwide about issues related to climate change. This is the first photographic award on the topic of sustainability, harnessing art’s unique compelling power for the benefit of our precious planet. The theme for this year is Earth, encompassing the planet, the ground beneath our feet, and the ways in which mankind negatively affects the landscape, whether through broken abandoned cities, strip mining, waste dumps or other forms of exploitation. It also refers to the aftermath of natural disasters such as earthquakes, landslides and volcanoes. The shortlist of the nominees (Darren Almond, Christopher Anderson, Sammy Baloji, Edward Burtynsky, Andreas Gursky, Naoya Hatakeyama, Nad...

RENCONTRES D’ARLES : 2014, UNE ANNÉE CHARNIÈRE
Hervé Schiavetti, maire d'Arles, vice-président du Conseil général des Bouches-du-Rhône, vice-président des Rencontres d'Arles.
L’histoire qui lie Arles à la photographie dure depuis 44 ans et durera longtemps encore. Comme toutes les vraies histoires d’amour, ces années ont été riches de découvertes, de bonheurs, d’épreuves aussi. De la chambre noire au smartphone, du mépris à l’Académie, de la rareté du tirage à l’avalanche numérique, les Rencontres d’Arles ont vécu des révolutions esthétiques, technologiques et sociologiques sans perdre leur âme. Arles doit beaucoup aux Rencontres, à leur «père» Lucien Clergue qui fête ses 80 ans et dont l’œu...

The self-curated exhibition shows more than 100 works of the best-known artists and a selection of outstanding fashion portrait and nude photography of the most famous supermodels of the last few decades.
According to Thomas P.Campbell, director of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, a worldwide successful model needs to be able to inspire the designer and to represent his intention. In this way a model can obtain a special iconic status and her face can become an own brand. In art, the motif of a supermodel has developed into an international scheduled genre which brings up maximum prices in auctions. The CWC Gallery appreciates this development with the group exhibition Supermodels - Then and Now and presents outstanding works of photographic history from the extensive collection of Camera Work AG and partly never seen ...

Phillips et la banque Degroof ont le grand plaisir d’annoncer une exposition d’une sélection d’œuvres de la collection privée de Florence et Damien Bachelot en collaboration avec le musée Nicéphore-Niépce de Chalon-sur-Saône. L’exposition sera présentée dans les nouveaux locaux de Phillips à l’occasion de Paris Photo.

Récemment, les deux collections ont été rassemblées dans une société familiale : Art Pradier. Ces collections, d&...
Galerie Edwynn Houk is delighted to exhibit photographs by the London based photographer Nadav Kander’s Yangtze – The Long River. Completed in 2009, Yangtze chronicles several journeys that Kander took over three years, travelling upstream and westwards, from the mouth of the world’s third longest river in Shanghai, to the source in the Sichuan province, 4000 miles away. The series, in its entirety, has been published in a single volume by Hatje Cantz, with an introduction by the former UN Secretary General, Kofi Annan.
The blazing pace of development in China, perhaps most clearly seen along the Yangtze, had long fascinated Kander. Entire cities, such as Fengdu, were moved, from one bank to another; with the construction of the Three Gorges Dam, 1.8 mi...
The exhibition Color presents over 100 photographs various positions of artistic color photography and gives with works of path breaking artists like Edward Steichen, Jeanlopu Sieff, Helmut Newton, William Eggleston, Stephen Shore, Jeff Koons up to Nadav Kander, Robert Polidori or Martin Schoeller insights into the development of the handling and the aesthetisication of color within the field of photography,
Beyond the usual process of colorizing black and white prints afterwards colour photography established itself from the 1930s onwards first within fashion and advertisement photography and quickly became an essential tool for the mass media and the entertainment industry. Colour used to pertain an adequate tool to describe the world how it could be in our imagination and wishes – colour outlines, accentu...
M97 Gallery is pleased to present “Standing at the Water’s Edge”, a Group Exhibition featuring the works of sixteen M97 artists.
Exhibiting more than 30 photographs by 16 artists, "Standing at the Water's Edge" immerses the viewer's perspective in a juxtaposed state between land and water. The boundaries and relationship between these two intrinsically linked yet fundamentally opposed elements of nature encourage our gaze and stimulate our imagination. The water's edge is at once boundary and transition, destination and a point of departure. The bedrock of land acts as foundation and the continuous flow of water depicts the flow of time. From the water’s edge we can seek perspective, enlightment, or to feel the vastness of the universe against the smallness of our bei...
The World in London is a major public art project initiated by The Photographers’ Gallery, to coincide with the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The project set out to commission 204 photographic portraits of 204 Londoners, each originating from one of the nations competing at the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The portraits will be exhibited as large-scale posters at two sites close to Olympic venues: on the external wall surrounding the BT London Live site in Victoria Park in East London, and across a city-block in Central London covering the façade of the new Park House development in Oxford Street.
The World in London explores portraiture and cultural diversity using photography, one of the most accessible and democratic artistic mediums of our times. The project celebrates Lo...

Premier prix international de photographie consacré au développement durable, le Prix Pictet n’a qu’un but : utiliser la force de la photographie pour communiquer des messages essentiels. L’objectif est de faire découvrir des œuvres d’art de premier plan qui confrontent le public globalisé aux défis sociaux et environnementaux du nouveau millénaire. Chaque année, le Prix Pictet récompense une œuvre dans une thématique spécifique en lien avec le développement durable. L’eau a été la thématique de l’édition 2008, la terre celle de 2009.
Parallèlement, la Commission du Prix Pictet invite l’un des photographes finalistes à produire une sé...
A group exhibition mainly curated from its own collection, displaying more than 40 photographers and their perspectives on mostly female nude art. Selected classics are supplemented with, in some cases, never before exhibited contemporary works of Blaise Reutersward, Nadav Kander, or Ralph Mecke.
The kaleidoscopic exhibition stretches from classical, nearly sculptural studio-stagings, as in the works of Horst P. Horst, Frantisek Drtikol, or Rudolf Koppitz, to the erotic and provocative images of Helmut Newton or Bettina Rheims, and extending to the series of documentary pictures by recently-deceased Larry Sultan, which originated off-set during pornographic shootings.
The studio-photography of the Pictorialists was followed by trend-setting picture experiments in the 1920s. Artists like Man Ray, Andr?© K&e...
The Prix Pictet is the world’s first prize dedicated to photography. It has a unique mandate – to use the power of photography to communicate powerful messages of global environmental significance. This year the theme is ‘Earth’. The exhibition includes work by the twelve international photographers shortlisted for the 2009 prize:
Food riots. Loss of forest cover. Desertification. The ecosystems we depend on appear to face resource demands already beyond their capacity. As governments try urgently to stimulate growth, a central question remains - can the earth’s complex living systems sustain the future consumption patterns of another three billion people in the world’s population by 2050? The submissions speak of the harmful and often irreversible effects of exploiting the earth&rs...

ICONIC PORTRAITS OF POWERFUL AND INFLUENTIAL FIGURES OF THE LAST 60 YEARS - EXHIBITION OF RARE VINTAGE AND SIGNED PHOTOGRAPHS
Atlas Gallery announce an important new exhibition of rare portraits by some of the most notable photographers of the last six decades. Curated personally by the gallery's director Ben Burdett, the subjects have been chosen from the fields of politics, sport, the arts, entertainment and science.
The selection of works on show attempts to examine the way in which the camera portrait not only provides the individual with a visual memory and reference for the subjects of the portrait but in some rare cases, when reproduced enough times, provides an almost universal human record.The works chosen have been selected not only for the status and influence of the subjects but for the importance of ...
Nadav Kander, who has received numerous international awards, most recently won the prestigious photo prize Prix Pictet, including in the short list, Andreas Gursky, Ed Burtnsky, Ed Kashi among others. In the same year, he was also awarded the Lucie Award 2009 for best international photographer. For many years, Kander's photographs have been an integral part of distinguished collections such as those of the NATIONAL PORTRAIT GALLERY and the VICTORIA AND ALBERT MUSEUM in London. It is our special honor to present parts of his versatile work for the first time in form of a double exhibition.
Under the title »Selected«, the gallery presents powerful portraits of artists and well-known figures as well as a variety of landscape series such as "Colour Fields", "God's Country", and "Arct...
The series »Obama's People«, developed in 2008, focuses solely on the administration - members of the cabinet and closest staff members - of the current President of the United States of America, Barack Obama. The outstanding 53 portraits depict, among others, U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama's Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel. This series of photographs, commissioned by Kathy Ryan, Director of Photography, and Gerald Merzorati, editor of the New York Times, was published in the magazine's special edition of January 18, 2009. The color photographs depict the regency in Washington, D.C., with subtle dynamics in the form of half-length portraits. The pictures are characterized by an accuracy with which Kander submits the politicians to a unique perspective.

The Ecotone exhibition brings together 7 artists of different generations and backgrounds to explore the theme of "betweenness" the transient nature of things, migrations, dualities, confluents, yet also the intrinsic para dox of photography itself in terms of its positioning in a world between reality and construction.
Ecotone takes its name from ecology, where it designates an intermediary zone between two natural systems, transient or at odds with each other, characterised by a high density and diversity of species, often unexpected or astray. The term derives from the Greek "oikos" which refers to the habitat and "tonos", meaning tension. Ecotone undoubtedly refers to this ecological dimension, but furthermore, it serves as a receptacle to speak to us more broadly of moments in which ...
On 22 October at the Passage de Retz gallery in Paris Kofi Annan, Honorary President of the Prix Pictet, will announce the winner of this year’s award. Planning for the exhibition of work by the Prix Pictet Shortlist 2009 is complete and it is clear that that the Jury face a considerable challenge when they sit down to consider this group of images that range from the painterly to the documentary and all points in between – often within a single submission. The power of the shortlisted images was summed up by Stephen Barber when he introduced them at the Rencontres d’Arles. “We are all of us, all too familiar with the great issues of sustainability – climate change, environmental degradation, deforestation – yet how many of us have experienced personally the devastating consequences de...
Kofi Annan, Président honoraire du Prix Pictet, annoncera le lauréat de l'édition 2009 le jeudi 22 Octobre au Passage de Retz. L'exposition des photographes nominés pour le Prix Pictet 2009 est prête et il apparaît clairement que les jurés ont relevé un défi de taille lorsqu'ils ont dû sélectionner ces images allant du pictural ou documentaire, souvent au sein d'un même dossier. La force des images choisies est bien résumée par Stephen Barber lorsqu'il les présenta en juillet dernier aux Rencontres d’Arles. “Nous sommes tous familiers des graves problèmes liés au développement durable - le changement climatique, la dégradation de l'environnement, la déforestation - mais malgr...
Parallax is the effect whereby the distance between two objects appears to shift when viewed from different vantage points and can help determine an otherwise unknown distance. Following on this concept, the "Parallax" exhibition places together two or more works by each artist from different times in their career. Creating an imaginary sense of distance by juxtaposing photographs of different size, subject matter, and year of creation presents an opportunity for the viewer to see how the artist's focus and technique has developed creatively or conceptually and how the style of their work has changed or remained consistent.
By bringing together photographs from different bodies of work by each artist from different stages in their career, "Parallax" highlights the evolution of each artist's style a...
