Susana
M. Dobal
"World"
"Susana
wants to know if we can be moved by the antithesis of
our daily landscapes. Is it possible that we feel any
solidarity with the misfortune of those far from us, thousands
of kilometers away, in places we have never been?"

Patricia Aridjis
"The Black Hours"
"Womens
prison has hundreds of sad stories, stories of forsaking,
of ill treatment, of inconditional love. Stories told
over and over, a litany of pain that cannot be forgotten.
To enter you have to walk through a long tunnel which
leads to an almost completely feminine world, a world
with no living colors, but beige and navy blue of
the uniforms."

Proyecto
Binet,
The re-invention of a world
Lourdes Morales - Javier Toscano
"The
Binet Project, in its photographic section, is a proposal
developed in a center for people with mental illness.
What is sought is the communal configuration of a visual
experience.
From the beginning we were aware that a project with a
truly creative proposition could not put aside the everyday
life of the people living in the center or their capability
to relate to their environment through fantasy, thus the
work would end up with the usual outcome, in which people
from a determined place are labeled as the others without
the opportunity of introducing themselves as a we."

Bruno Veiga
"Casa de Bamba"
"Poetry,
color and warmth are enlaced in his approach to the
world of the stars of the "Old School" of
the Carioca samba of Rio de Janeiro.
The development of this truly “suburban”
music followed the growth of Rio de Janeiro's peripheral
zones. In those increasingly large and populated areas,
the internal migrations of part of the urban middle
class and other more humble society sectors have built
up a social identity that bears a quite definite profile,
with a very peculiar projection over its cultural
aspects, particularly those related to the visual
arts and music."

Anders Clausen
"Postcards from Paradise"
"The
asylum seekers have no influence over how or in
which context the photographer’s images represent
them in the media. That is why I – in collaboration
with the Danish Red Cross Asylum Department –
decided to give 100 disposable cameras to asylum
seekers in centers across Denmark. I wanted to let
them represent themselves with images that would
shape our opinion about them."

Clarissa
Borges
"With the eyes of the other"
"Clarissa
Borges demonstrates in her photography works, her preference
for operating with a second “reality”, with
the effects of a “reality” mediated by the
'look of the other', the man and the woman."

Francoise and Daniel Cartier
"Roses"
"In
their photograms - each of which, by the way,
is a one-off image - Françoise and Daniel
Cartier combine an archaic photographic technique
with objects that are part and parcel of contemporary
life and modern consumer society.
While
present in the traces, indeed almost tangible
marks, they leave on the paper, they are at
the same time absent, slowly fading away in
the manner of an afterimage behind closed eyelids."

Pontus Charleville
"New York Blue"
"This
project is about showing what I, as an outsider, see
and get confused about in a society that differs from
what I have experienced before. I was brought up in
Stockholm, Sweden, and coming to New York City meant
a lot of social changeovers."

Santiago
Bustamante
"New York City - The Year After"
"New
York City: The Year After' is a photographic project about
the psychological and behavioral consequences of the 9/11
attacks on the people of New York City. The pictures were
shot from 9/11/2001 to 9/11/2002. This porject is a subjective
and expressive study about the consequences of 9/11 in
the social landscape of New York City."

Numo Rama
"Zona Zero"
"Photography
as a documentary form has evolued significantly in
raising
awareness of man inserted in his social context; hence
he considers himself included.
I
document the damage caused by man's egoism included
in this social context. There is nothing new in this
whatsoever."

Soto
"Mexican
Popular Imagery"
"I
began to take photographs of the Rótulos (shop
signs) in the 1970s. Their sense of humor and originality
were the main features that caught my attention. Since
then, I have sought for them and I am convinced that I
will preserve them forever."

Kidd
"Base Imprints"
"My
recent body of work titled "Base Imprints"
consists of digitally composite “types”
which subtly explore impressions of the fragility
and ferocity of pre-pubescence.
There is an experimental measure of violence and perversity
in childhood play that is part and parcel of developing
a conscience."

Michael
Dozortsev
"Life
is a picture solely painted by the colors of destiny.
People are as different as their destinies- yet all
of them look at a life with identical eyes. It thrills
me that it is possible to take a look at the world,
and be able to show it to another. I very much hope
that art helps people to be united and I believe this
sentiment is part of the work of every artist."

| Shahidul
Alam
"Brahmaputra, a journey to the source of Asia greatest
river"
"It
started from a longing to cross other boundaries.
Reaching across boundaries of time, across boundaries
of political space, across racial and cultural barriers
of language, race and religion. To go back in time
to how our environs were created. The answer lay
in a river. Amazing as much for its physical grandeur
as for the history hidden in its rocks and its exuberant
flow. The Brahmaputra. The son of Brahma."

Don
Gregorio Anton
"The total sum of solitudes"
"The
work is based on a belief that photography is the
evidence of sight which can be addressed and healed
through observation. I create imagery to help navigate
and formulate my right to see, to accommodate the
positioning of my soul in the world. From here I locate
and determine that thin layer of reality that surrounds
perception and align my vision to that which guides
and teaches. I use the residual affect of silver and
light to record a source of inquiry into the mysteries
that surround me."

"Tren
Blanco"
The train of the cardboard-pickers
| "'Cartoneros'
(cardboard-pickers) who now sum up to 30,000 persons,
travel every day to Buenos Aires city from the peripherials
in different transportations, fundamentally by railroad.
The images in this exhibition show how this people
travel daily in the interiors of Ferrocarril Metropolitano's
freight cars, totally deteriorated without the minimun
sanitary infrastructure, however this railroad company
charges them a monthly fee, equivalent to a day's
salary."

Liz
Darlington
"Constructs"
"
In this series of travel images, significant moments
in time worthy of the travel snapshot are composited
into amalgams that intend to subvert the travel photographer’s
intention of capturing the decisive moment, that is,
a specific moment in time and place. They seek to question
the relationship between photographic representation
and memory. Our nostalgic view of personal experience
is frequently undefined, distorted and defies chronological
temporality"

Li
Zhensheng
"Red-Color News Soldier"
A unique archive, hidden for over 30 years.
|
"For
a long time in the Western world, Mao Zedong and the
Cultural Revolution were perceived with amazement
and fascination; only very rarely with horror. In
the late 1960s and early 1970s, rioting students around
the world were inspired by the finger-pointing, slogan-shouting
style of the Red Guards.
Even today, all the chaos of that period can seem
somewhat romantic and idealistic in comparison with
the contemporary Chinese society we see and hear about.
With this in mind, it was necessary to produce a clearer
and more truthful image of the violent turmoil that
turned China upside down during the Cultural Revolution.
Li Zhensheng was the one person who, through his exceptional
photographic legacy, could convey an authentic vision
of this tragic period".

"There
is a Country..."
Rosa
Revsin´s photographs.
|
Juan
Rulfo’s writings have not inspired these photographs.
On the contrary, some where in my mind, a new sense
of the images spawned off when it encountered the texts
of these wonderful stories, in which the living and
the dead coexist with no clear boundaries. Therefore,
“There is a Country” is not an attempt to
describe; it is just my tribute to Rulfo’s greatness
and to the greatness of his characters, tragically reborn
today in Latin America’s underprivileged masses.
Rosa Revsin, November 2003.

"Trapped in someone else's dream"
| "The
April Project outlived the month that gave it its
name and became this wide range of exciting glimpses,
as if the original limitation had never existed. 17
different wills became a single photographer, restlessly
shooting in many different places, living many lives
at the same time.
An entire life can be seen in the blink of an eye."

Juri Nesterov
"Ukraine"
| "The
youth (early years) of these people coincided with the
middle of the 20th century. That was a hard time. Stalin
dictatorship, War against Hitler. The time of War, hardship
and repressions. They all took part in the biggest fight
of The World War 2 - battle for Stalingrad. More than
1 million militaries from each side participated in
it. It was the time when "human life worth nothing"
- one of the characters said then. ".

"Inside,
Under, Behind"
|
"What
about that drum set half covered by a cloth in a garage?
Does it hide a famous rock band or a group of friends
that will put their heart and soul into a dead end music
career that will bitterly end in a few short years?
We all hide unmentionable secrets behind our own façade
sometimes we cover them under the gauze of our smile
or we hide them very deeply, only to let them out when
we are not seen by anyone".

Ken Merfeld
| "There
is an elegant simplicity and a purity to 19th. Century
photography and the Wet-Plate Collodion process
is illusive, magical, and has a life of chemical
interpretation all its own. It is the most intimate
of photographic experiences, requiring a psychological
exchange of intellect and emotions rendering handcrafted
heart and soul portraits."

"Those around me keep asking, “why,”
but I never seem to find an answer. Perhaps there
is no “why,” there is nothing deeper than
the experience of creating for selfish reasons.
This
is not sad, this is enlightening.
If
they dig too deep they might not like what they find,
and why does there even have to be a “why?"
Is it for ego, for textbooks, is it learned artistic
behavior?
