Résumé:
In 1984, Giovanni Chiaramonte photographed Álvaro Siza's building in Berlin, on whose façade some young people had written Bonjour Tristesse. The image was published on the cover of the magazine Lotus International. The following year, Siza and Chiaramonte met in Évora, on the occasion of a new series by the Italian photographer featuring the buildings of the great Portuguese architect. It marked the beginning of a long friendship and a shared reflection on architecture, photography, and urban life. "The Measure of the West" presents a selection of fifty-seven drawings by Siza and forty photographs taken by Chiaramonte in cities around the world.
Beatriz Banha: Midday moon
$50.00

Résumé:
Much like the moon, which does not cast its own light but reflects the sun’s, the photographs in ''Midday Moon'' appear to represent the world, but are, in fact, an echo of Beatriz Banha’s particular universe. This is a world seen askew: hands mid-gesture, textures half-revealed, objects both tactile and out of place. Banha’s presence is constant but never central.(...)

Résumé:
Much like the moon, which does not cast its own light but reflects the sun’s, the photographs in ''Midday Moon'' appear to represent the world, but are, in fact, an echo of Beatriz Banha’s particular universe. This is a world seen askew: hands mid-gesture, textures half-revealed, objects both tactile and out of place. Banha’s presence is constant but never central. She operates just outside the frame, like a satellite held in orbit. The places that formed her, the house she grew up in, territories in and around Évora, everyday scenes and familiar spaces — are all touched by something unfamiliar: the agency of photography. Flash brings surfaces into sharp relief while casting doubt on their meaning. Obstacles impair our recognition of figures in portraits. Lush still-lives appear gift-wrapped in plastic bags. The scenes appear real enough, yet they feel slightly detached, as if lit by an otherworldly source. ''Midday Moon'' might be a study in perception. A kind of lunary where the moon is rarely seen, but rather what it lights up: a world estranged from itself. An elusive account, equally distanced and affectionate, of the relationship between the real world and Banha’s own, in which photography acts as our interpreter.
