Elina Brotherus
Finnish, fine art photographer – highly autobiographical work, the content has been formally shaped by variously Dutch and French painting, impressionist landscapes and Cezanne’s mountain while never losing the essential Scandinavian qualities which can be recognized from the architecture of Alvar Aalto to the films of Bergman.
Peter
Marlow
British
Magnum photographer, whose tense filmic night shots of the East End (1981
black and white vintage prints) recall the post war images of Bill Brandt.
Lillian
Bassman
92
year old black and white fashion photographer – Bassman’s
stylized images recall fine pen and ink drawings and re-cast fashion photography
as calligraphy.
Deborah
Turbeville
76
year old New Yorker – Turbeville’s striking narrative images
capture the underbelly of Jean Rhys’s Paris, and Eastern Europe
before the fall of the wall. Turbeville took fashion photography into
a narrative world that her young heirs attempt to emulate, while she continues
to shoot regularly for Vogue Italia, amongst others, staying creatively
one step ahead of the pretenders
Annabel
Elgar
Young
British photographer who stages precise photographs in which psychological
trauma is palpable. She explores the dark side of British suburban life,
misfits and miscreants and is regularly selected in international exhibitions
to represent the best of young British photography.
Susan
Meiselas
New
York Magnum photographer, internationally acclaimed for her tough, front
line images from Nicaragua, confronts sexual perversion in Manhattan (Pandora’s
Box) with exactly the same unsentimental eye she brings to her war photography.
Stephen
Morgan
Irish
catholic photographer from inner city Birmingham accounts for the place
in which he grew up in a series of intimate, thoughtful and quietly contemplative
works.
Following the opening of Jules Wright’s photography, film and video gallery, The Wapping Project – Bankside, in October 2009, we are pleased to show a small review collection of each of the gallery artist’s works, prior to our first launch of a film collection by Elina Brotherus on 16 September 2010.
The Wapping Project - Bankside is located at 65a Hopton Street (adjacent Tate Modern) London SE1 9LR and is open Tuesday – Saturday 10.00-18.00 hrs and on Monday by appointment only. Closed Sunday.
