Once the highest paid photographers in the world, he was ambivalent about the acclaim he received in his chosen field, preferring to remain anonymous. Little was written about him, even at the peak of his success. He was linked to the early ‘Design Laboratory’ classes of Alexey Brodovitch, and was a key member of the close knit group of photographers now celebrated as ‘The New York School.Discussion | Information Jacob Aue Sobol: Sabine and I, Tokyo

Foam presents an exhibition of work by a new generation of photographers who work with the medium of photography in a refreshingly uninhibited, unconventional and sometimes slightly anarchist way. Five young Dutch photographers: Constant Dullaart, Katja Mater, Jaap Scheeren, Corriette Schoenaerts and Anne de Vries use photography more as a medium, rather than a self-evident end product.Discussion | Information  Infinite Spaces

Weather has become "climate", climate has turned into "climate crisis" - an unstoppable threat of our natural environment has been a global discussion topic for years. The internationally renowned Finnish artist Ilkka Halso (*1965 ) has been dealing with healing and rescue of endangered nature in his work for the best part of a decade. His photographic interventions are therefore not just the Finnish sequel of "Landart", developed in the USA in the 1960s, but also a reaction to our changing planet.Discussion | Information  Werkschau 2 - Andreas Mühe

“French photographer Olivier Culmann, clicks people watching TV. He captures that instant when consciousness drifts, drugged by the phosphorescence of the cathode tubes. Nothing is more banal and unsettling. This is how, in this quasi-immobile passivity, with a numbed brain that television viewers receive the world in its entirety."Discussion | Information  Hotel & Dawn - Erwin Olaf
The genesis for this series came from artist's travels to the US, where he was struck by the interest of African Americans in an earlier body of work and his desire to expand his thinking about his subject matter. The artist found inspiration in the Museum of Modern Art (NY) collection, in "The Hamptons Album" made around 1900 by a female photographer, Frances B. Johnston, a remarkable photographic record of middle class Native and African-American students at a school in 19th Century Virginia.Discussion | Information |
