Andre Lichtenberg exhibits in Paris & London

Friday 21st of October 2011

Images by Lensmodern member André Lichtenberg will be on show consecutively in Paris and London this month.
      The Flaere Gallery will show André's Vertigo series, 2008 and his Licht series, 2010, in Paris for the first time ever at the CHIC Art Fair from 21st to 24th October. The fair will have 45 international contemporary art galleries and a special section dedicated to street photography. Chic 2011 will be held at the stunning La Cité de la Mode et du Design building in the river side.
      A few days after Paris, Flaere will be busy again, this time showing at the AAF (Affordable Arts Fair) North London. The Hampstead edition of the art fair will open from Thu 27th to Sunday 30th. The Gallery will exhibit new unseen examples of André's 'Licht' series as well as other contemporary artists' recent work.

 

Elina Moriya in collaborative exhibition

Friday 14th of October 2011

Currently on show at the Teasmith Gallery in London's Spitalfields, 'Homelandscape' is the first collaborative project by two  Finnish-Japanese artists, Lensmodern photographer Elina Moriya, and Miika Osamitsu. The exhibitions consist of Elina’s photography and Miika’s essay and sound installation. The exhibition is a part of a larger series that the artists are working on at the moment.
      The exhibition concentrates on the theme of home and the variety of ways in which we conceptualise and experience home and its counterpart homelessness.
     This exhibition, like the forthcoming ones, includes an  essay on the subject. The philosophical posture is central to the collaboration and the series as a whole, so that visual, audible and textual layers are inseparable from each other. This is how the collaboration started in the first place, by a deep philosophical conversation in the midst of photographs and sounds, by a realisation that a home can vanish in an instant, by tsunami, by earthquake, by war,  by phone call, by arising of a thought.
The exhibition is on show at the Teasmirth Gallery, 6 Lamb Street, London E1 (closest tube: Liverpool Street) until 6th November.

 

Paolo Patrizi selected as finalist in the International Festival of Rome

Monday 8th of August 2011

A series of images by Lensmodern member Paolo Patrizi, entitled 'Migration linked to Prostitution' has been chosen as a finalist in Fotografia 2011, the International Festival of Rome. Paolo's images, alongside those of the other 4 finalists, including the winner, and ten 'special mentions', will be screened at the Museum MACRO Testaccio throughout the festival, which runs from 23rd September to 23rd October; they will also be listed on the festival website and in the Fotografia 2011 catalogue. Paolo is delighted with the publicity his project will receive as it has been particularly difficult to persuade mainstream magazines to publish the images due to the nature of the subject matter.

 

Leon Steele in Royal Academy Summer Exhibition

Saturday 30th of July 2011

Images by Lensmodern member Leon Steele have again been selected for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition.
      Over 12000 entries were submitted for the annual selection from 27 countries, but only 30 or so photographers are featured in the final exhibition, so it is a great accolade for a photographer. Other photographers in the show include Gillian Wearing and Cindy Sherman, so it would appear that photography is beginning to be taken more seriously by the Academy.
      Now in its 243rd year, the exhibition continues the tradition of showcasing work by both emerging and established artists in all media including painting, sculpture, photography, printmaking, architecture and film.
     Leon's images are from a series taken on Surrey's Box Hill and can be seen at the Royal Academy until 15th August.
