PARIS PHOTO 2019

Bruce Silverstein Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition that will include both iconic and lesser known photographs by some of the most important photographic artists of the 20th century for Paris Photo 2019.

The exhibition will feature new and earlier work by contemporary artists attracting the attention of curators internationally, including Todd Hido, whose newest work highlights the artist’s first significant foray photographing territory outside of the United States, chronicling a decidedly new psychological geography. Mishka Henner’s new series “Evaporation Ponds,” which, like most of his work, navigates the vast digital terrain to focus on key subjects of cultural and geo-political interest. Elger Esser joins the gallery’s roster of represented artists and his recent technique of printing on silver-plated sheets of copper will be displayed in the booth.

These themes will be further explored by the inclusion of contemporary artworks based in psychological exploration by Daido Moriyama and Marjan Teeuwen; and with a focus on the abstract, featuring artists Shinichi Maruyama and Penelope Umbrico.

Included in this curated presentation will be works by Aaron Siskind, documenting Harlem in the 1940s, Harry Callahan’s early work made in Chicago, as well as masterpieces by Czech artists Jaromir Funke, Jaroslav Rossler, and Frantisek Drtikol.
