  • We are delighted to present SHOOT: Photography of the moment presentation talk by Ken Miller. Friday 9th July @ 7pm. Indigo and Cloth, Basement 27, South William Street, Dublin 2. Celebrated with events at the New Museum in New York, Tate Modern in London, FOAM Fotografiemuseum in Amsterdam, Ullens Center for Contemporary Art in Beijing, Parco in Tokyo and YAUTEPEC in  Mexico City.  SHOOT is a collection of ‘photography of the moment’ by Stephen Shore, Nan Goldin, Walter Pfeiffer, Boris Mikhailov, Wolfgang Tillmans, Juergen Teller, Mark Borthwick, Ari Marcopoulos, Hiromix, Glynnis McDaris, Linus Bill, Jason Nocito, Yurie Nagashima, Tim Barber, Peter Sutherland, JH Engstrom, Dash Snow, Kenneth Cappello, Louise Enhorning, Michael Schmelling, Nacho Alegre, Ola Rindal, Paul Schiek, Madi Ju, Jaimie Warren and Thomas Jeppe. “From SLRs to disposables to digital cameras to PDAs, the photographic image is more prolific than at any point since the medium’s inception. Whether working in personal documentary, editorial, fine art or fashion, the photographers in SHOOT share a democratic, emotionally intuitive approach to picture-taking that reflects an era in which we increasingly use ephemeral images to define our own lives.” SHOOT includes a foreword by legendary photographer Stephen Shore, in addition to a critical essay by professor Penny Martin (of pioneering fashion site SHOWstudio.com, The Gentlewoman and the London College of Fashion) with a historical overview by editor Ken Miller (Revisionaries; A Decade of Art in Tokion). “SHOOT straddles the divide, alternatively offering visions mundane and majestic, grotesque and gorgeous.” ~Nylon Magazine “SHOOT, brings together two generations of photographers who have stripped down the art of image-making and focused their lens on the spontaneous rather than the controlled.” ~V Magazine About Ken Miller Ken recently completed SHOOT, a compilation of contemporary photography that was published in 2009 by Rizzoli International. The publication of SHOOT is being supported with exhibitions and related events in museums in the United States, Asia and Europe. Recently Ken curated a series of limited edition shirts in collaboration with Uniqlo and  A FUNCTION OF FORMS which will be releasing under their UT Series in July. A FUNCTION OF FORMS was a curated show by Ken Miller (SHOOT/ Revisionaries) that was shown in Gallery Target in Toyko. The t shirts will feature black and white photographs by the artist’s that exhibited:  Lee Friedlander, Daido Moriyama, Marianne Mueller, John Divola, Linus Bill, Peter Sutherland, Paul Schiek, David Potes and Zoe Ghertner. In 2007, Ken edited Revisionaries; A Decade of Art in Tokion, a book published by Abrams Image. Revisionaries showcases work by nearly 100 of the most intriguing young visual artists of the past decade. In Spring, 2009 he was a consultant for an auction of contemporary art and design at Phillips de Pury that included many of the artists in Revisionaries. Ken was Editor in Chief of Tokion magazine, a bimonthly arts and culture publication, from 2002 to 2007. Under his guidance, Tokion became widely recognized as a trend leader in design, arts, and style editorial. As Editor in Chief, Ken assigned and edited all written content and acted as photo editor. During his tenure, Tokion expanded to include a Japanese-language edition of the magazine and European distribution for the English-language edition. In 2003, Tokion founded Creativity Now, an innovative multidisciplinary conference taking place in New York and Tokyo. In 2007, Ken acted as a curator for The Creators Series, organized by Robert DeNiro and Jane Rosenthal’s Tribeca Enterprises. In 2008, he curated speakers for the MINI Rooftop NYC.

  • Housed at The Back Loft of La Catedral Studios, The Thing That Bruises You presents a salon style exhibition of works by a selection of recent photography graduates from across the island. Representing a broad range of innovative techniques, styles, and photographic practices, the exhibition promises to exhilarate, inspire and provoke. Works are mapped out floor to ceiling, gallery wall to gallery wall, representing a lavish visual survey of contemporary views and concepts undertaken by graduates in recent years. In so far as this exhibition engenders an opportunity to showcase these old and new works, it also attempts to address the vexed nature of being a graduate in the current climate, where the quest for gallery space, opportunities and recognition in the field are enduring issues. One hundred and sixty square meters of available wall space then acts as a metaphor reflecting these concerns, and to this end, no individuals works takes precedence and little space is left in-between. The call is open to current and past graduates During the exhibition, an open forum comprising of all participating exhibitors will take place in a bid to foster debate and discussion regarding the challenges and concerns facing art photography in a broad sense. In particular, photography graduates frequently remark that work often finds its final resting home beneath beds, behind sofas, summoned to the attic- endlessly gathering dust. This forum, which is open to the public, will attempt to address such obvious concerns, but equally, act as a framework in which to debate immediate and longer-term challenges and concerns facing art photography practice in Ireland. It is hoped that this important discussion will generate new ideas and proposals certifying a more auspicious future for the photography graduate. The talk will take place on Saturday the 10th of July at 19:30, ‘Open Forum: challenges and concerns facing the Art Photography practice in Ireland’, moderated by the festival Director Ángel Luis González.

  • OpenCall 2010 presents an opportunity for Irish-based photographers and artists to showcase their photographic projects. This all-inclusive model hopes to gather a wide variety of interest, impressions and concepts. To attract an extensive participation in its first year, an open theme is being proposed, although we request that all participants submit a coherent project of a minimum of 8 images. The works will be reviewed by our curators and a final selection of 20 participants will be exhibited at a comprehensive exhibition to be held at The Complex in Smithfield, Dublin – opening on July 4th. While the submission process is free for each participant, an administrative fee of €50 will be requested for those selected. Please consider this expense before proceeding with your submission. Instead of hanging the work on the walls at The Complex, works will be presented as photographic prints displayed on supplied tables – one per participant. In this way, a deeper engagement with the work will be fostered, giving visitors an opportunity to participate and discuss face to face with each photographer, who in turn will benefit from more direct feedback. While no works should be for sale at the space, we would suggest that all participants use the event to develop and extend their own personal network by inviting possible patrons, galleries and interested parties. The selected projects will additionally be featured on PhotoIreland’s online gallery.
