ANOS 2000 Accueil - Sylvain Lagarde - Photographie noir et blanc Фотография от Yan McLine Eric LAFFORGUE | Photography | Photographie Alex Liverani - #LadiesDay - Projects - InQuadra Ascot – Berkshire countryside | June 2015 An absurd lobster pink suit jacket, a white wrinkly shirt, and a ceremony black bow tie embellished with a plastic sparkling pearl. A brand new day was waiting for me, the “Ladies Days”, the very heart of the Royal Ascot week, the hottest European horse race. A muster for the sake of kitsch of biblical proportions distinguishes the Silver Ring atmosphere. What may appear to be an enormous and lavish wedding reception or an odd and fake elegant picnic becomes even more interesting when liters of beer and pimm’s show their effects.
Atum Wim Wenders | Galerie Wim Wenders. Instant Stories at C|O Berlin presents a selection from the late 1960s to the early 1980s, when Polaroids were a visual notebook, a field of experimentation, and a photographic road movie. The resulting collection of pictures includes thousands of unique, personal shots of his film sets and travels through Europe, the United States, and many other places around the globe. They show Wenders in his personal surroundings and portraits of celebrities and friends including Annie Leibovitz, Robby Müller, Dennis Hopper, and Peter Handke. The exhibition will be making its first and only stop in Germany at C|O Berlin. Along with Wenders’ photographs, the exhibition includes excerpts from films in which Wenders used the medium of instant photography as part of the film narrative.

Joshua Hoffine Horror Blog 500 Photographers The Shadow of the Bear: Ukraine This project is a document looking at the aftermath of the peaceful “colour” revolutions in Georgia and Ukraine set against the backdrop of Russia’s resurgence as a major global power and its ongoing interference in their sovereign and domestic affairs. A major geopolitical battle is being fought out in Ukraine and Georgia, in their nascent stages of nation-building and as they try to free themselves from Russian influence. Russia, fuelled by energy dollars, has emerged after its difficulties under Yeltsin into a more assertive and aggressive force. It still sees both countries as part of its sphere of influence, or its “near abroad”, and as such acts like an imperial power towards its smaller neighbours. At the same time the European Union and NATO are expanding and gaining influence close to the borders of Russia. With Russia resisting, the situation is reminiscent of the Cold War era.
