Solo exhibition, In the Pink gallery - Portugal

My new solo exhibition will be presented in the new gallery "in the pink" dedicated to contemporary photography.
This gallery has been newly renovated by Anja and Philip Burks.

The building has three floors, connected by a spiral staircase and has beautiful high ceilings, perfect for photography exhibitions.

The owners were able to salvage the original skylight and there is a small window facing the bell tower of the Ermida de Nossa Senhora da Conceição chapel, in the heart of Loulé and has become beautiful as a total pink building.

If you are in the neighborhood come and admire my show and the beautiful gallery in the pink (meaning happy life)

Benjamin Jäger en Steffi Schulz (Jaeger art advisory) thank you for connecting us!

OCEAN – SUMMER EXHIBITION AT BILDHALLE AMSTERDAM

Bildhalle will present sixteen artists who explore the motif of the ocean, each with a different aesthetic approach. I’m proud to be one of the artist how will be part of this beautiful show “Ocean”

For thousands of years, people of all civilizations have been intrigued by the ocean and have pictured it in a diversity of artistic forms. The ocean is the source of life on earth and symbolic of the unbounded spectrum of animate being. The infinite movement of these masses of water also symbolizes stability. Conversely, the oceans may also stand for formlessness and chaos and, in the interpretation of dreams, for the collective and personal unconscious.


THE ARTIST THAT WILL BE PRESENT DURING THE OPENING:
CASPER FAASSEN // BASTIAAN WOUDT // THIRZA SCHAAP // PAUL CUPIDO // ILONA LANGBROEK // JEFFREY CONLEY // PHILIPP KEEL // AMY FRIEND // ALBARRÁN CABRERA // SANDRO DIENER // THOMAS HOEPKER // MARTIN BOGREN // WERNER BISCHOF // KACPER KOWALSKI // RENATO D’AGOSTIN // RACHEL THOMSON

OPENING DAY: Saturday, 4 June: 12:00 – 19:00 H.
Exhibition lasts until Saturday, 10 September 2022

"HOW TO PHOTOGRAPH LIKE BASTIAAN WOUDT"

Many of you probably already know Bastiaan Woudt - a Dutch photographer, master of black and white portraiture and mystic landscape photography. His images are elegant, minimal and very sleek. Independently if he is photographing a fashion campaign in his studio or a still life outside somewhere in Morocco.

Bastiaan Woudt began his journey into photography by learning techniques from his favourite photography masters Irving Penn and Richard Avedon and developed his unique style by experimenting with classical studies and adding to these images a modern twist. 

Despite his inspiration with vintage photography, antique sculptures and classical postures and lighting, Woudt by far is a modern photographer. Because he isn't just inspired by the past, but in his work, the past inspiration intervenes with modern editing techniques. Bastiaan Woudt manages to put hope and melancholy, purity and ambiguity, unity and plurality to dance with each other in one single frame. How does he do it?  - READ MORE
