The debut monograph of Sebastian Sabal-Bruce showcases a mesmerizing collection of portraits and landscapes, elegantly woven together in a cinematic and poetic sequence. Primarily featuring the diverse places and faces Sabal-Bruce has encountered throughout his career, this work blurs the lines between fiction and documentary. It subtly weaves a narrative centered on a female protagonist emerging from the confining urban landscapes of cities like Tokyo and Manhattan. As she traverses these spaces, a poignant dance ensues between the masks we wear and our authentic selves, juxtaposing alienating city streets with raw moonlit portraits. The narrative's abstract and subtle essence encourages viewers to immerse themselves and derive personal interpretations.
This is My Life I'm Talking About by Danny Lyon is a picaresque memoir written from inside the heart of the revolutionary twentieth century by one of its most crucial witnesses. A love story of a beautiful friendship with the great American hero John Lewis. Danny Lyon writes with tremendous and generous feeling, humor, and a selection of unpublished and unseen pictures ties in Danny Lyon¿s life to The Bikeriders. His story begins in Russia under the Czar, when in 1905 Lyon¿s uncle Abram is involved in the murder of a policeman during a pogrom and fled to Brooklyn, where, during World War Two, Lyon was born.
Forty large-format black-and-white portraits of women tell, with a single protagonist, the kaleidoscopic female universe and its infinite facets Through Her Eyes is a journey through female eternity. The artist¿s attentive gaze spans centuries and traditions to offer us a multifaceted representation of women, relating constantly to their roles in society and their inner world. The muse and sole protagonist of this artistic research is the ethereal Ludmilla Voronkina Bozzetti. The artistic project Through Her Eyes ¿ Timeless Strength took shape in 2021, when Vadukul met Ludmilla during a shoot for Roberto Cavalli¿s Zero Collection and he was dazzled. Ludmilla, the subject of this fascinating narrative, is much more than a model. Her magnetic presence and strength make her the soul of this exhibition, perfectly complementing the extraordinary art of Max Vadukul. Taken at the timeless Villa Gattoni in Meleti, Lombardy, the photographs immortalise Ludmilläs evolution in an entrancing journey that forms the heart of Vadukul¿s narrative. In the photographer¿s eyes, Ludmilla is a multifaceted woman: daughter, wife, mother, seductress, worker. She is both absorbed and detached, sad and thoughtful, but also strong, self-assured and triumphant. Vadukul shows us that a woman is an endless kaleidoscope of different perspectives and worlds, an infinite feminine world that cannot be immortalised in a single shot. Every image awakens in the audience an awareness of the impossibility of labelling her: she is simultaneously everything, she holds life in her womb and the future in her hands. Max Vadukul¿s art becomes a tribute to the history of women, to their journey through the centuries. Ludmilläs feminine energy and strength, which span history and are manifested in the artist¿s photographs, evoke in the heart of the onlooker the eternal respect owed to women.

Renowned photographer Richard Blanshard's candid collection of star-studded photographs from the Cannes Film Festival, taken over two decades
Photographer Scott Mead showcases the poignant black-and-white photographs from his archive for the first time, documenting his early adulthood in New England, USA, from 1971 to 1976 and exploring discovery, ritual, rural beauty and urban metropolis. Photographer Scott Mead, born in 1954 in Washington, D.C., revisits his formative years spent documenting New England, USA, in Rites of Passage for the first time. Shot over a five-year period between 1971 and 1976, we follow Mead through early adulthood and explore scenes of discovery, ritual, rural beauty and urban metropolis. At a junction between an American road trip and a personal visual diary, Mead¿s images depict a world as it was then, shaped by political upheaval, profound civil changes and the Cold War. The tensions embedded in these photographs resonate now amid a fraught social landscape and increasing polarisation. Recent global events gave Mead the opportunity for intense self-reflection as he delved into his photographic archive. The clothbound hardback book features 100 large-format prints of Mead¿s poignant photographs to be considered in a new context. The 35mm black and white images portray life in a time of transition as the viewer¿s eyes are drawn into the atmospheric imagery, compositions and textures captured within them. Rites of Passage shows Mead with a camera always at hand and presents his delicate, often amusing and sometimes uneasy portraits alongside cityscapes, landscapes and snapshots of the lives of friends and strangers. All of the artist¿s proceeds from Rites of Passage benefit Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in London.

In jedem Bild schwingt der Nachhall andererBilder mit, in jedem ist eine Fülle von Möglichkeiten, wiedie Welt im Bild wahrgenommen und dargestellt werdenkann, verdichtet.Seit 1984 verwendet sie das Medium der Fotografie in einerArt und Weise, die den Gegenstand in ihren Bildern nichterstarren lässt, sondern ihm imaginäres Leben verleiht.Ihr Werk kreist um existenzielle Fragen - insbesondereum die Grundfrage allen Lebens: seine Endlichkeit. Oftabstrahiert und gleichzeitig präzise und detailreich dargestellt,bekommen ihre Motive von den Toten Tieren zuden Miniaturen über das Verschwinden eine eindringlichePräsenz. So appelliert die Künstlerin an die Empathie ihrerBetrachter*innen und berührt sie nicht zuletzt mit dersinnlichen Qualität ihrer Bilder, ihrer klaren Bildspracheund ausdrucksvollen Schönheit.GABRIELE ROTHEMANN (*1960, Offenbach am Main) hat an derKunstakademie Düsseldorf bei Fritz Schwegler und am CaliforniaInstitute of the Arts, Los Angeles, studiert.

An exceptional immersive journey across time and space to unravel the soul of an iconic traditional and artistic village in the heart of Arabia Genius of the Place: Al Muftaha book series is an invitation to embark on an exceptional immersive journey across time and space to unravel the soul of a historical and cultural village in the heart of Arabia. Located in Abha region, in the southern part of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Al Muftaha was once an area vibrant with life, creativity, and artistic ingenuity: positioned amid an exceptional landscape surrounded by green hills and purple-colored jacaranda trees, this traditional village with its distinctive architectural style of mud-composed, white and turquoise-painted small houses, was in the 1980s a hub for artists and creatives. As part of its efforts to establish cultural assets that promote culture as a way of life, the Ministry of Culture of Saudi Arabia has worked on the restoration and renovation of Al Muftaha and commissioned four artist photographers and four writers from Saudi Arabia, the Arab region, and Europe to capture the soul and memory of Al Muftaha. The result is an astonishing collection of rare images accompanied by a compelling narrative, that take the reader on a visual voyage uncovering the ¿genius of the place¿ called Al Muftaha. This artistic book series not only exhibits the architectural beauty of Al Muftaha, but also magically reveals the sense of the place by combining poignant images with a compelling narrative. Photographs of empty alleys, abandoned studios, and the famous Talal Al Maddah Theater ¿ once the landmark of Al Muftaha ¿ all capture the ¿sense of the place¿ and reminisce the lively spirit of this village now turned still.

In her photographic series Paris - 9 Rue de l'Université, Frizzi Krella (b. 1970) explores the seemingly mundane subject of a window front undergoing renovation work. With her precise eye, she transforms her observations into a multifaceted reflection of the moment, a composition of the ephemeral. Krella's photographs are an invitation to investigate the world, with its various distortions and compositions, as if it were a puzzle. They are an opportunity to delight in the playful appropriation of the various layers of reality and coincidence in order to assimilate the things we have seen into the cosmos of our own experience of art and the world around us. Thus, her work takes us all the way back to the very origins of photography and to the Paris of two centuries ago, when moments first began to achieve timelessness.
Sportives! is a collection of black and white portraits of women practicing sports. All sports of the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris are represented. The photos show women of all ages, of all origins, coming from all regions of France, amateurs in the first sense of Olympism. The artistic vision is the encounter between women's sport and the gaze of a photographer. Eric Mistler combines all the emotions created by sport with the timelessness of black and white photography. For Mistler, each shooting session is a moment of complicity and empathy with the woman practicing her sport; he offers a subtle mix of pure portraits and portraits in action. By his vision he sublimates the splendour of sport.
