Workshop Photographie poétique avec Rinko Kawauchi du 8 au 11 Juillet
Née au Japon en 1972, Rinko est diplômée de l’université d’art et de design de Seian. Après une courte carrière dans la publicité, elle fait une entrée magistrale dans le monde de la photographie en 2002, en publiant simultanément trois ouvrages qui la révèlent au grand public : Utatane, Hanabi et Hanako. Suivront d’autres livres qui créent l’événement, comme Aila (2004), Cui Cui (2005) ou encore Illuminance (2011).
Chaque fois, elle porte ce même regard sur la beauté des détails de l’existence, même lorsqu’il s’agit de répondre à une commande du Museu de Ar...
Il peut être réduit, naturel, dédié au travail, dévasté mais surtout, il peut être photographié ! Quoi donc ? L'espace ! Vous l'aurez compris, c'est précisement le thème de la 7ème édition du Prix Pictet.
Bref rappel : depuis 2008, le Prix Pictet récompense un photographe et son travail autour du développement durable. Premier prix au monde consacré au développement durable, le Groupe Pictet entend promouvoir les discussions et débats sur ce sujet.

Sheets attempts to retrace Rinko Kawauchi’s steps in this world through a reassembly and re-editing of her filmstrips as a reinvented whole. Cinematographic at heart, the sequences of randomly selected contact sheets offer a real-life time lapse, a resurrection of moments in the personal history of the artist and immortalised in some of her more significant publications. The book’s gatefolds mark intervals in this rhythmic crescendo. They contribute, as if under a magnifying glass, to new spontaneous pairings of images. It is all here, fragment by fragment, the elements and patterns of a primal cosmogony of varied affective nuances with their connotations of transcendental immanence—a palimpsest of the everyday that Kawauchi brings together with such astounding ease as if the flow of juxtaposing imag...

Habituée aux flashes des paparazzi et des touristes, Deauville fait un sort à sa réputation de cité mondaine le temps d'un mois. Son festival Planche(s) Contact met à l'honneur, du 25 octobre au 30 novembre, la photographie, la vraie, celle de Moon, Ramette, d'étudiants passionnés, d'amoureux inspirés et de bien d'autres encore. Mais pour ne pas totalement trahir ses penchants égocentriques, la ville a choisi un thème imparable : elle-même. Itinéraire d'une cité gâtée... en cinq étapes photographiques !
1 - Au Point de Vue : Mélancolie, folie & petites choses de la ville
Face à la mer, le Point de Vue accueille en ses murs un trio internationa...
Dès 1860, Deauville accueille et inspire les photographes de mode autant que les reporters et les photographes humanistes.
De leurs regards sur Deauville est née l’envie de continuer à enrichir le patrimoine photographique de Deauville en créant en 2010, un festival de photographie contemporaine : PLANCHE(S) CONTACT. Depuis quatre ans, des photographes y sont invités en résidence avec pour consigne de mettre en correspondance leur univers et leur langage photographique avec l’une des facettes de Deauville. Dans le même temps et sur le même sujet, la Fondation Louis Roederer soutient un concours réservé aux étudiants des principales écoles de photographie européennes.
En quatre éditions, Deauville s’est montrée sous de multiples facettes. Balnéaire avec Massimo Vitali,...
Press release :
“On a tiny star in a galaxy, even tinier creatures continue to carry out their own roles. All under the light of the sun; All maintaining a fragile balance, like walking over thin ice; All while searching for beauty, as if in prayer; All protected, with each of their realms continuing to endlessly overlap with one another.” – Rinko Kawauchi
Christophe Guye Galerie is proud to announce the second solo exhibition with the latest works of Rinko Kawauchi (*1972, Japan) at the gallery. In recent years, her work has started to develop further and further afield from her earlier endeavours focusing on delicate everyday occurrences and subjects.
With ‘Halo’ Rinko Kawauchi expands her exploration of spirituality that she started in 2013 with her series and book ‘Amet...

Christophe Guy Galerie's press release
Christophe Guye Galerie is proud to present the work of Stephen Gill, Rinko Kawauchi, Brigitte Lustenberger and Dominique Teufen at Unseen Photo Fair 2016. The artists, in different approaches and unique techniques, scrutinize humanity and their environment and straddle the line between photography and art.

While photography is often seen as the amplification of something, Stephen Gill (*1971, Great Britain) tries the opposite. He wants to quieten things and not enhancing them. This tension stimulates the viewer to think of his or her own story.

At this years Photo London, Christophe Guye Galerie juxtaposes European with Asian artists who, in different approaches and unique techniques, scrutinize humanity and their environment and straddle the line between photography and art.
While photography is often seen as the amplification of something, Stephen Gill (*1971, Great Britain) tries the opposite. He wants to quieten things and not enhancing them. This tension stimulates the viewer to think of his or her own story. Ina Jang (*1982, South Korea) creates work with a playful and poetic spirit. Constructive and deconstructive alike her work is physical, gentle, and humorous, introducing new meanings to familiar objects while exploring a collapse of dimensions in photography. Rinko Kawauchi (*1972, Japan) explores the extraordinary in the everyday life, drawn to t...
KUNST HAUS WIEN opens its photography focus with the impressive work of the Japanese artist Rinko Kawauchi (b. 1972). The exhibition is the first comprehensive mid-career retrospective of the photographer in Europe. In large-scale cycles, she presents a universal memory and archetypical recollection, enabling reflection upon human existence.
Rinko Kawauchi has found acclaim worldwide for her nuanced use of colour and the unerring mastery of her compositions. Furthermore, her attention to small gestures and coincidental details enables her to cast a gaze of enchantment upon her daily surroundings that is always fresh and new. With her camera, she captures elementary and casual moments, all with the same passionate concentration. Kawauchi explores what is special in daily life, and ultimately this leads her to the funda...
La conmemoración del IV Centenario de la muerte del Greco tendrá también un lugar de privilegio para una gran exposición, ToledoContemporánea.
Comisonada por Elena Ochoa Foster y coordinada por IvoryPress, en esta exhibición se darán cita trece fotógrafos de prestigio internacional con instantáneas tomadas en la ciudad a lo largo de 2013.

Christophe Guye Galerie is pleased to announce its upcoming exhibition Illuminance, by one of Japan’s most acclaimed contemporary photography artists Rinko Kawauchi. Almost like a photographic diary of sorts her first exhibition in Switzerland will present an exciting selection of over 40 photographs and one video from the last fifteen years. Reminiscent of Japanese photography of the 1960s Kawauchi’s work is the search for the sublime amid the banal; poetically her sense of wonder transforms the quotidian into something extraordinary. With the same vigour and depth she applies to the making of her books, the artist has gone about to create an exhibition that allows the viewer to visually drift like riding on the current of a well-orchestrated piece of music. With numerous solo exhibitions to date, Kawauch...
Identité forte de la jeune photographie japonaise, Rinko Kawauchi se distingue par la simplicité apparente de ses images qui révèlent la trompeuse et délicate simplicité du quotidien. Ce sont des successions d’instantanés de vies, une poésie du réel revisitée, mais jamais banale. L’œuvre de Kawauchi est un travail sur la clarté, et sur le temps qui passe, sur chaque micro instant qui constitue la toile de notre vie, une succession d’haiku, en quelque sorte. Cette artiste au regard tout à fait singulier crée une œuvre emprunte d’une profonde force visuelle qui se construit à partir de tous petits riens. Ses images confèrent une autre texture au monde qui nous entoure, toute a&eacu...
New works by three internationally acclaimed photographers, each presenting a very different response to the city of Brighton & Hove. Rinko Kawauchi (JPN), and Alec Soth (USA) commissioned by Photoworks and Stephen Gill (UK), in association with the Archive of Modern Conflict.
Alec Soth
Brighton Picture Hunt
For this Photoworks commission, his first in the UK, Alec Soth has made work in collaboration with his daughter Carmen walking around Brighton & Hove. Like much of his previous work, the photographic journey of Brighton Picture Hunt combines poetic and documentary sensibilities, each photograph and idea leading to the next. People, places and objects are woven amongst local newspaper headlines. Serendipity is at play as text and image combine to make uncanny connections and provide a captivating portra...
To mark the ten-year anniversary of Galerie Priska Pasquer, we are delighted to present a selection of new works by Rinko Kawauchi.
With “A Glimmer in Silence”, Rinko Kawauchi recalls the spirit of the “Utatane” series with which she entered the art scene in 2001. Today, Rinko Kawauchi is one of the best-known Japanese photographers of her generation.
In her works, the artist presents a flowing, fragmentary depiction of everyday life with fleeting scenes and small objects. At first glance, the motifs found in her new series “A Glimmer of Silence” are also less than spectacular: light reflected in a mirror, a small frog sitting on a hand, fish in a plastic bag or animal eyes from the butcher’s shop. Beneath the surface, however, Rinko Kawauchi never fails to allude ...
This exhibition is based on the idea of 'infatuations' that can affect both photographers and exhibition curators. People often suppose that museums make choices as objectively as possible, but actually this is far from from the truth. Just as an artist may feel physically and emotionally attracted to a particular subject, the collector or curator might also have a ‘crush’ on a certain work. The term ‘the infatuated camera’ comes from the title of a 1971 film by Ed van der Elsken, De Verliefde Camera, a compilation of travel clips previously filmed by him. This exhibition has been assembled in a similar way; photographs and film rushes from the present day contrast with excerpts and impressions from the previous century. Works have been seemingly casually arranged according to summery themes: hang...
«Focus Japan» is the first of our exhibitions about Japanese Photography this year.
We start with an overview of our collection. Alongside watercoloured Albumines from the 19th century, at that time mainly produced for travellers from the West, we show samples from the sixities and seventies, two important decades for Japanese Photography, as well as some works of the younger generation. Among others are: Rinko Kawauchi, Ruji Miyamoto, Ikko Narahara, Koji Onaka, Toshio Shibata und Issei Suda.
Alongside original prints you will also find a large range of Japanese Photography books. Compared to the US and Europe there are still only few galleries and public institutions in Japan that organise photography exhibitions. Therefore photobooks carry special importance for the reception of photography in Japan.

In her still and subdued works, Rinko Kawauchi (1972), one of the most celebrated Japanese photographers of her generation – tries to capture the brief and transient beauty of the everyday things we often overlook. Playing on such themes as the family and our interaction with the cycle of nature and life, this artist looks for wonder in details. It is astonishing that her sensitive yet forceful way of observing the world around her and of catching fleeting moments in a photo actually results in an exquisite fragility – which is also evident in her meticulously constructed compositions.
Kawauchi uses the micro-momentary as a compass and this, like surfing on a wave, has unpredictable results and as an experience is holistic. In these invariably subjectively-charged images, it is not the explicit that gains ...
Rinko Kawauchi, née en 1972 dans la province de Shiga, est l’une des photographes les plus talentueuses de la jeune génération japonaise. Elle revient en France, pour une exposition personnelle organisée à Paris par Antoine de Vilmorin du 4 avril au 3 mai 2008.
Les quarante photographies choisies pour cette exposition proviennent de la série « Utatane » - mot japonais qui définit un état mi-éveillé mi-endormi, rassemblées dans un des livres publiés par l’artiste.
Elles témoignent de l’attention extrême que Rinko Kawauchi porte à toutes ces « petites voix qui lui chuchotent depuis son enfance » - selon sa propre expression, et qui sont à l’origine de cet univers i...
Although this is Rinko Kawauchi's (b. Shiga, Japan, 1972) first UK exhibition, she has had, and continues to have, a prolific publishing profile. In a matter of a few years she published around six significant books featuring different series of her work including: Aila(2004); Hanabi(2001); Utatane(2001); Hanako(2001); Cui Cui(2005) and the eyes the ears (2005). Anne Tucker points out that this is not unusual because, "photographic monographs have been pivotal to the evolution of photographic aesthetics in Japan and in the distribution of Japanese photographs outside the country." (The History of Japanese Photography(Yale University Press, 2003)). There is something inherently immediate in the book format that revolves around the dynamic sequencing of images. It also has an inevitable episodic nature to it that presents ...
