Exhibition New York: Sebastiaan Bremer at Edwynn Houk Gallery
September 12 – November 2, 2013
Opening reception: Thursday, 12 September,
Sebastiaan Bremer is showing a really amazing group of hand painted photographs in his current exhibition at Edwynn Houk Gallery in New York. Unlike most who simple hand color their photos Sebastiaan adds another layer of meaning with his meticulous handling of paint and line to obscured snapshots. This is a really beautiful exhibition and not to be missed.

The making of WaterMark
From September 12 to October 19, 2013, Miyako Yoshinaga Gallery is delighted to present:
“Eikoh Hosoe: Curated Body 1959-1970,” featuring 34 vintage prints by the master Japanese photographer, Eikoh Hosoe. This exhibition is organized in association with Howard Greenberg Gallery, New York. An opening reception will be held Thursday, September 12, 6-8pm.
Eikoh Hosoe (b. 1933) is widely acknowledged to be a pioneer of expressionistic post-WWII Japanese photography. Throughout an oeuvre spanning over fifty years, Hosoe has explored the human body’s physicality as a subject that reveals a shifting interior landscape of dreams and desires. The exhibition focuses on black-and-white photographs from Hosoe’s two seminal series Man and Woman (1959-1960) and Embrace (1969-1970). Produced ten years apart, these two series bookend a prolific decade of artistic production, solidifying Hosoe’s bold and dramatic aesthetics into a clear statement against the “objective” realism which was then the dominant photographic convention in Japan.
