6 January 2008 (gallery 3, third floor). So you will have plenty of opportunities
to explore his work. It´s highly recommended. Stay tuned to the F blog for

"My relation to the history of photography as an art form". That is what
Tom Hunter will talk about at Kulturhuset, Stockholm on Tuesday
4 September 18 00 hrs (Studio 3). It has been said about Hunter that his
inspiration as a photographer comes from among others Henry Peach
Robinson. Whether true or not, this could be interesting. Will we hear
about the outlooks for pictorialism in the 21th century? Well, the only
way to find out is to be there listening to his lecture.

invited guest: Damien Brailly (In between)







In between
Urban spaces. Blurred, scattered, incoherent. From really dense areas to forgotten and deserted ones. Transportation centres and chaotic suburbs. This is what Warsaw looks like in through the lens of Damien Brailly’s camera. Born in 1980, this sociology graduate decided to leave his hometown – Lyon – and move to Poland, where he currently studies photography. (from Transphotography press)

Damien Brailly: My half-documentary project poses questions about these border spaces « in-between » which we so often overlook, as well as about our mental representations of Warsaw – a city bearing painful stigmata of history and yet still searching for its identity as one of the big capitals of Europe.

"In between" by Damien Brailly is now being presented during the TRANSPHOTOGRAFIA/TRANSPHOTOGRAPHY festival in Gdynia. http://www.transfotografia.com/
