"Very often I say to myself, I would
like to make a
photo
where nothing happens. But in order to eliminate,
there has to be something to begin with.
For nothing to happen, something has to happen first." Sharah Moon, photographer. Born in England. In the Sixties worked as a model in London and Paris and fashion photographer and filmmaker. Lives in Paris. "Entre Vues" with Frank Horvat |

Marcel Duchamp, Man Ray and Francis Picabia were
at the cutting edge of art in the first half of the twentieth
century, and made a lasting impression on modern
and contemporary art. Duchamp invented the concept
of the 'readymade': presenting an everyday object as
an artwork, Man Ray pioneered avant-garde
photographic and film techniques and Picabia's use
of kitsch, popular or low-brow imagery in his paintings
undermined artistic conventions.

'A heady fusion of Hopper and
Vermeer'
An article by Michael Palin in the Guardian. It wasn't exactly love at first sight; more a slow, benign haunting. It began after a visit to the Hayward Gallery in London nearly 20 years ago to see an exhibition of Scandinavian art. The South Bank, cold, grey and severe, seemed to echo all my prejudices as I dodged the swirling litter around the door, and readied myself for a therapeutic touch of Norse rigor. Instead I found walls full of colour, and canvases as bright and boundless as those of any impressionist, tinged with an appealing touch of melancholy. Golden harvest fields, couples strolling along beaches enveloped in the odd blue light of the midnight sun, women in deck chairs in long, white cotton dresses, big healthy nudes, thatched houses with spick-and-span rooms. Positive, glowing stuff, and very much in the general run of 19th-century European and American taste. Article continues |

As the White Cube Gallery in London, MOCA and other
important art Galleries around the world prove,
photography is alive and living well.
