Exhibition views "Magnum Masterpieces" - Ostlicht. 6/8
Elliott Erwitt - Paris - Dog in car, 1957 (detail of the dog)
Only till 29.03.2025

The year 1947 is a significant one for both the Polaroids and Magnum Masterpieces exhibitions - it saw both the invention of the Polaroid camera and the founding of the legendary Magnum Photos agency. To celebrate this milestone, OstLicht presents Magnum Masterpieces, an exclusive exhibition featuring vintage and authorized prints from eight of the most influential photographers in history - all available for purchasing and some with red dots ;)

This collection brings together some of the most iconic images ever captured, from the D-Day landings and the American Civil Rights Movement to the Berlin Wall’s construction and Cold War events and Cartier-Bressons "decisive moment". It also highlights poetic and humorous street photography, along with unforgettable portraits of cultural icons like James Dean, Joan Crawford, Andy Warhol, Louis Armstrong, Arthur Miller, and Pablo Picasso.

Don't miss the opportunity to experience timeless masterpieces by Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Capa, Eve Arnold, Inge Morath, Elliott Erwitt, Dennis Stock, Bruce Davidson, and René Burri—photographers who shaped the way we see the world.

Henri Cartier-Bresson - Derrière La Gare Saint-Lazare ("Pfützenspringer")
Only till 29.03.2025

On display is also Henri Cartier-Bresson's Derrière la Gare Saint-Lazare is a masterclass in composition, timing, and the philosophy of the decisive moment—a concept he pioneered. The photograph captures a man mid-leap over a puddle, his silhouette perfectly reflected in the water below. The sheer precision of the shot, taken through the bars of a fence, demonstrates Cartier-Bresson’s ability to anticipate movement and freeze a fleeting instant of poetic balance. Although the photo is quite blurry and grainy (not only the jumping man)

Photo: showing the crazy detail and color rendering of these huge Polaroids

One can acutally rent that camera at Supersense but the films are just not the same as they were back then ...

In the 1980s, Polaroid’s massive 20×24-inch camera revolutionized staged photography, producing instant images of remarkable depth and vibrancy. This huge camera (only 6 existed!), created unique, large-format prints with striking color saturation and a rich, almost lacquer-like surface. The layering of the Polaroid emulsion added a tactile brilliance, enhancing the intensity and sensuality of each image.

Featured artists include Sally Mann, Bettina Rheims, William Wegman, and many more.

This huge camera (only 6 existed!), created unique, large-format prints with striking color saturation and a rich, almost lacquer-like surface. The layering of the Polaroid emulsion added a tactile brilliance, enhancing the intensity and sensuality of each image.

OstLicht now holds around 1,300 of these exceptional Polaroids, showcasing a selection of 50 still-life works. Whats remarkable is that these photos are one of a kind and are displayed with their frame including the traces of the chemicals. In this postmodern era, artists explored the boundaries of reality and fiction, using the camera to construct vivid, immersive scenes. The immediacy of the instant process allowed for spontaneous compositions, while analog techniques foreshadowed digital effects (the material was payed by Polaroid luckily).

Featured artists include Sally Mann, Bettina Rheims, William Wegman, and many more.

A small tip: It's best to bring a magnifying glass to the exhibition. The works are really small and become even more impressive the closer you look. Okay, a phone for zooming in works too.

Gregory Crewdson @ Albertina Bis 8. September 2024 Nicht greifbare Stimmungen, surreale Sujets. Was zeigt Crewdson? Sieht man einen Unfall? Ist das ein Tatort? Er selbst löst seine Fotos nie auf. Personen wirken seltsame entrückt, interagieren oft nicht miteinander und doch es geht keine Bedrohung von ihnen aus. Steven Spielberg und David Lynch sind seine Vorbilder. Besonders imposant: er arbeitet mit riesigen Sets mit bis zu 100 Mitarbeitern für ein einziges Foto. Dabei Ist es gar kein “einzelnes” Foto, sondern seine Werke setzen sich aus vielen einzelnen Aufnahmen zusammen in denen alles von vorne bis hinten scharf ist - eine gewaltige Wirkung wenn man davor steht! Er setzt seine Fotografien immer in zeitloser Ästhetik um, alte Autos die für den American Dream stehen. Damit werden sie allgemein gültig und kommen nie aus der Mode - sozusagen. Schwere Empfehlung. . . #crewdsonalbertina #albertinacrewdson #AlbertinaMuseum #igersaustria @albertinamuseum @igersaustria.at

Seit mehr als einem halben Jahr dokumentiere ich regelmäßig die Baustelle im Arsenal für ART for ART, das Filmmuseum, das FOTO ARSENAL und das Architekturbüro Malek Herbst Architekten ZT GmbH. Dabei sind zahlreiche Fotografien entstanden, die die baulichen Herausforderungen, aber auch die erreichten Fortschritte dokumentieren. Die besonderen Anforderungen der zukünftigen Mieter haben mir als Fotograf immer wieder tolle Einblicke und Perspektiven ermöglicht. Ich freue mich schon auf die nächsten Termine!

Eröffnung BEATE GÜTSCHOW - WIDERSTAND, FLUT, BRAND, WIDERSTAND. LAURE WINANTS - FROM A TONGUE WE ARE LOSING . FOTO ARSENAL WIEN . Spannende Positionen zu einem Thema, das uns alle angeht. .
