Summary:
Over the course of a year, Brian Rose set out to photograph all the neighborhoods at the ends of the subway lines in New York City. He had multiple reasons for engaging in such a project, but the strongest was the desire to portray New York as a highly diverse, multi-centered metropolis. Having spent a major part of his career photographing the city through often challenging times – the dichotomy of destruction and creativity of the 1980s, the mortal wounding of 9/11, and the suspended animation of the Covid-19 pandemic – Rose was perhaps uniquely equipped to document the city at this moment of political uncertainty under the increased strain of new arrivals, many of whom are refugees from around the world. For a new generation of New Yorkers, the trains roll on ceaselessly, and despite the title, ''Last Stop'' is not so much about endings as it is about reinvention.

Summary:
Eggleston’s vivid photographs transform the ordinary into distinctive, poetic images that eschew fixed meaning. One of the foremost practitioners in the medium’s history, Eggleston is widely considered the father of color photography. He pioneered the use of dye-transfer printing for art photography in the 1970s. The technically advanced process—first developed by Kodak in the 1940s—allowed him to achieve the richness of tonal depth and color saturation that he had been searching for. In the early 1990s, Kodak stopped producing the dyes, paper, and film used in the process. With the necessary materials now discontinued, and the bulk of what remained being used for this exhibition, "The last dyes" marks the final presentation of new works completed in this medium.

Summary:
"Diane Arbus: Sanctum Sanctorum" brings together forty-five photographs made in private places across New York, New Jersey, California, and London between 1961 and 1971. Through her singular combination of intelligence, charisma, intuition, and courage, Diane Arbus (1923–1971) was frequently invited into personal realms seldom seen by strangers. Though made in intimate settings, the photographs collected in this volume convey no sense of intrusion or trespass—instead, they reveal an unspoken exchange between photographer and subject, a moment of recognition in which confidences emerge freely and without judgment. Arbus’s desire to know people embraced a vast spectrum of humanity. Her subjects featured in Sanctum Sanctorum include debutantes, nudists, celebrities, aspiring celebrities, socialites, transvestites, babies, widows, circus performers, lovers, female impersonators, and a blind couple in their bedroom. Through a fresh consideration of little-known photographs among works that may be more familiar, this publication invites viewers to discover aspects of even well-known images that have previously gone unnoticed.

Summary:
Since the 1980s, Canadian artist Stan Douglas (born 1960) has created films, installations, photographs and other multidisciplinary projects that address moments of rupture where "history could go one way or the other." Across formats, his images recall things that haunt: unresolved moments, political tumult and violent turning points; plots that retain a hold, however imperceptible, on the present. His work operates within the genres of cinema, photography and theater to present a point of view that is always staged. Douglas' rigorous explorations of these charged histories show us how to "think historically in the present" and frame contemporary crises in a longer timeline. ''Stan Douglas: Ghostlight'' accompanies the artist’s first survey in the United States in more than twenty years, charting his global influence and innovation across forty works from the 1990s to the present.

Summary:
Over the last decade, Adam Lampton has photographed the former Portuguese colony of Macau (now a Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China) and witnessed its transformation from a small enclave into an international gambling Mecca and leisure destination. As of 2007, Macau had surpassed Las Vegas in revenue to become the world’s most valuable gambling market. The colonial legacy, the communist experiment in capitalism, and the Chinese traditions continually collide and remake Macau through the filter of each other’s histories.This complexity is reflected in the large-format photos, which oscillate between past and present, expression and observation. In addition to exhibiting internationally, Lampton’s work has been featured in Art in America, The Boston Globe, and Camera Austria.

Summary:
Abordant les thèmes de la ville, de l’architecture, de l’aliénation et de la nature, Métamorphose est le fruit d’un questionnement commun de Serge Clément et d’Alexis Desgagnés sur le rapport entre le texte et l’image, ainsi que sur la mise en forme du livre en tant que moyen de création et qu’œuvre d’art. Le livre s’articule en trois parties qui, bien que pouvant être appréciées de manière autonome, sont parcourues par des liens subtils. Les deux parties initiales de Métamorphose ont été disposées tête-bêche, ce qui fait en sorte que le livre peut être consulté soit en commençant par la série de photographies Forêts, secrets & paradoxes de Clément, soit à partir d’Ornithologie de Desgagnés, qui rassemble poèmes en prose, photos et dessins à l’encre. Au centre, une troisième partie intitulée Gamble représente un espace mitoyen, interstitiel, qui permet la rencontre et la fusion des univers propres à chaque artiste. Pour produire le contenu de cette nouvelle partie, les artistes ont travaillé ensemble en effectuant plusieurs séances de prise de vues réalisées à Montréal.

Summary:
Michel Campeau est un de ces photographes qui, outre leur propre création d’images, ont toujours été passionnés par une photographie dite « vernaculaire », anonyme ou de famille. Il fait partie de cette génération de photographes qui pourrait réunir Martin Parr, Erik Kessel, Joachim Schmidt et d’autres, qui ont créé par leur attention sur ces images délaissées avant eux, un genre à part entière… Depuis de nombreuses années, Michel Campeau traque dans l’immensité d’une production d’images mondialisée, les tirages photographiques amateurs ou de professionnels qui vont nourrir les différentes collections qu’il a établies. Ainsi les chambres noires, que l’on pourrait considérer comme une sorte de caverne originelle de la photographie, ont toujours été, pour lui, l’un des plus importants objets de collection, certainement parce qu’elles contribuent à lui renvoyer sa propre image, l’autoportrait d’un créateur dont le regard a été forgé par cette photographie argentique qui apparaissait dans la nuit de la chambre, pleine de magie et de matière, que le passage à la photographie numérique a chassé.

Summary:
"Portrait of J" joins the rich tradition of socially engaged portraiture, echoing seminal works such as August Sander’s "Face of Our Time," Irving Penn’s "Small Trades," and, Wolfgang Tillmans’s "Portraits." What distinguishes "Portrait of J" is its intentional focus on ordinary individuals photographed with the same care and reverence often reserved for cultural icons. Shot across a variety of familiar, recognizable locations, mainly in urban environments, Homma’s portraits have an illuminating quality that reveal a psychological depth in their subjects. His portraits are guided by empathy and a desire to observe people as they are—free from manipulation or staging. The result is a more inclusive, nuanced visual representation of Japanese identity—expanding the lens through which Japanese people are seen both within Japan and internationally.

Summary:
With the publication of his serialized photo-essay Hikari to Kage (Light and Shadow) in the first issues of the magazine, Shashin Jidai, Daido Moriyama announced his return to photography after nearly a decade. Moriyama had been mired in an acute creative slump from his mid thirties, since the publication of his seminal book, Shashin yo Sayonara (Farewell Photography) in 1972. Unable to take nearly any photos for a prolonged period, he turned to illicit drugs, ultimately wasting away to little more than 40 kgs before he hit physical and emotional rock bottom. Lured back by Akira Hasegawa, Shashin Jidai’s editor, he was invited to contribute photographs for each issue. This began a long relationship between Moriyama and Shashin Jidai. He would ultimately make a total of six serialized essays that appeared through sixty-three issues (in every issue but one) until its’ demise in April 1988. During this period Moriyama worked almost exclusively for Shasin Jidai and was given a free hand to explore and experiment and in the process evolved a new aesthetic that still informs his photography today. Tragically, more than eighty percent of his negatives were lost from this pivotal body of work. In Daido Moriyama Shashin Jidai 1981–1988 the complete run of essays or chapters that appeared concurrently in Shashin Jidai are brought together for the first time, representing the only way to appreciate them without acquiring the original magazines themselves.
