The photographers depict a range of…
Editorial RM presents Pyramid of the sun by Sebastián Thomas. Pyramid of the Sun explores the utopian vision of an architect who, in the late 1970s, set out to bring the ancient Pyramid of the Sun at Teotihuacán, Mexico, to the heart of Santiago de Chile, transforming it into a visionary shopping centre. Built in 1979, the building is part of a distinctive type of commercial architecture known as the…

Fog The reddish tiles were still damp and the dead leaves, fallen from the bare trees and black as ravens, when slowly, like an ethereal and graceful woman, a thick blanket of fog descended. She landed on everything and everyone with her wet, cold veil. Everything was full of it. The old and imposing tree, which turned its branches heavily towards the sky, as if to welcome that goddess as…
Mater “The sacred in me is the source of the sin that punishes humanity. I am the one who generates. I'm the one who kills. I carry in my hands the guilt for the choices imposed on me. A woman is only born to be a mother. And when a mother is born, a woman dies.” Why do women still have their value associated to motherhood? At the beginning of…

Archives - September 15, 2015 Even before 1979, when Richard Avedon began a project he called In The American West, he had planned to photograph a man covered with bees. He advertised for a subject and found Ronald Fischer, a Chicago banker and amateur beekeeper. In 1981, after queen-bee pheromone was applied to his skin (to attract drones), the tall, shaven headed Fischer stood patiently outdoors in Davis, California, while…
Archives - September 15, 2017 By emphasizing Raymon Depardon’s meandering itinerary, the Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson pays a special tribute to the photographer with a book publication and an exhibition. From his family farm to the African desert, the exhibition follows the gaze that traverses his entire oeuvre. Straying off the beaten track, crossing the lines, picking a side road, cutting across a field to reap an unexpected harvest … Raymond…
Markus Klinko — Constructing The Icon For Markus Klinko, photography is never simply a matter of recording reality. It is an act of staging, a construction, almost a form of visual dramaturgy. For decades, the photographer has been fascinated by that precise moment when a personality ceases to be an individual and becomes a figure in other words, an icon. His work occupies that elusive space where the portrait no…
The Institut du monde arabe-Tourcoing presents the exhibition Le Liban de Serge Najjar starting September 19, 2026. With an extraordinary acuity of eye, Serge Najjar manages to elevate his photographs, taken on Lebanese construction sites, into veritable paintings echoing the great masters of geometric abstract painting such as Piet Mondrian, Kazimir Malevich, Wassily Kandinsky, Bridget Riley, and Aurélie Nemours. In doing so, he offers us an atypical vision of Lebanon,…

Kehrer Verlag publishes Freiheit Freedom Воля by Gosbert Gottmann. With it, the Art photographer reflects on suffering, violence, and war through the experience of the Ukrainian population during the Russian invasion. At its core lies the tension between destruction and the human desire for freedom, safety, and dignity. Suffering, a central theme in Gottmann’s work, is conveyed through abstraction, deformation, and visual disruption. Rather than offering direct representation, faces dissolve,…
Whenever I’m in Arles, I love popping into La Valise Arlesienne, a shop specialising in photographic ‘delicacies’, which, as of this year, also has a separate photography gallery. My colleague Dinter has already discussed at length the current exhibition ‘Le Voyage en Égypte’ (Nadine Dinter, 7 July 2026), but I found two little gems there that I wouldn’t want to keep from you. The first is a magnificent photograph by…

The silence before the name I photograph ordinary objects to the point where they cease to be recognisable. Before they are named, things experience a moment of silence: they are no longer objects, but merely surfaces, volumes, light and shadow. This series explores that moment when the gaze hesitates. Deprived of its points of reference, the eye searches, imagines and formulates hypotheses, oscillating between abstraction and figuration. Gradually, clues emerge.…
Something of Venice Fragile, ancestral, unique, today Venice risks to lose its soul and the memory of its diversity, crushed in the mono-cultural mill of standardised entertainment. 1000 residents leave Venice every year and Venetians have begun to live in the memory of their own city. As Salvatore Settis reminds us in his essay ”If Venice dies”, the city risks becoming an empty shell, “a sort of artificial paradise for…
The Horizon of Metamorphoses: Oetopos Having explored the impermanence of space, I continue my investigation into emptiness and the threshold through a new series, Oetopos, in which the landscape becomes the site of a slow reclamation. My intention is no longer to document reality, but to reconstruct it. Oetopos is a place that does not exist: a visual utopia born from the assemblage of photographic fragments gathered within an abandoned…
