I love to photograph and tell their stories.\nMy language is that of the photogram, a single extrapolated image of the creation that surrounds me.\nTime is abstracted and becomes forever, my gaze flows, my mind analyzes, crosses information, welcomes. My feeling wants to go deeper, so I try to immerse myself in places, in relationships to listen to the meanings and bring them to light.\nI feel that the frames have the strength to implement these mechanisms, to move the synapses, both for me in shooting and for the observer. This is my intent.\nI become an integral part of the staging of reality. The subjects, whatever they are, play their part and the image is created in my eyes. Without them I would not be able to see it and take it.\nThe photogram is the tool that helps me understand and take care of the \"things of the world\", which gives them an existence, and reconciles me with them, discovering their immense beauty.\nAs a photographer, like a ferryman, I try to bring the viewer into the image through my interpretation, to approach him and make him participate in my sensations of the choice of the subject, in an attempt to communicate an aesthetic experience that can lead him to make discoveries about about oneself, about others and about life.","user_id":698253,"name":"Andrea Taglier","website":"www.andreataglier.it"},{"id":677881,"bio":"","user_id":677297,"name":"준호 이","website":""},{"id":204029,"bio":"I am a self-taught, award-winning artist making film portraits of people in Minneapolis and around the world.","user_id":203427,"name":"Amy Anderson","website":"www.amyandersonart.com"},{"id":698919,"bio":"","user_id":698335,"name":"Norbert Koopman","website":""},{"id":621830,"bio":"Jonathan is a Visual Artist and Specialist in Photography from the Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Master in Visual Arts from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México.

Her work is grounded in the ideas of coexistence and synchronicity, exploring the relationship between humans and nature. Her practice moves across photography, video, and process-based image-making, developed through site-specific and performative approaches in which image production emerges through direct interaction with the surrounding landscape.\nWithin this framework, her work is organized into two complementary lines. The first explores the landscape through 19th-century photographic techniques, including cyanotype, anthotype, and chlorophyll prints, alongside experimental image-based processes. In this context, nature operates as an active agent within the work. The landscape is not only represented but reconstructed through a co-creation with the natural surroundings, where time, matter, and territory converge.\nThis line of work is informed by her Master’s thesis research for her degree in Contemporary Art Curatorship at ESEADE, focused on 19th-century British women photographers and their relationship with botanical sciences. These practices of observing and classifying the natural world, developed by women historically marginalized within photographic and scientific discourse, are reactivated through a contemporary reading that shifts the taxonomic paradigm toward an ethics of care for the natural world.\nThe second line addresses the relationship between female life cycles and natural cycles, based on liminal experiences and processes of transformation in young women deeply connected to the earth, in dialogue with Latin American magical realism.\nShe is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Contemporary Photography at LENS School of Visual Arts (Madrid, Spain), supported by a scholarship.\nHer work has been exhibited in institutions and venues in Argentina, including Centro Cultural Rojas, Fundación Cazadores, and MUBAL Museum of Fine Arts. Internationally, it has been shown at The Griffin Museum of Photography (Massachusetts, USA), Soho Photo Gallery (New York, USA), PhotoPlace Gallery (Vermont, USA), Amanda Smith Gallery (Texas, USA), The Photographer’s Eye Collective (California, USA), and Museo Arte al Límite (Panquehue, Chile). She has also participated in international fairs such as Photo London (London, UK) and Pinta BAphoto (Buenos Aires, Argentina)\nIn 2026, she was a finalist for the LensCulture Art Photography Award (USA), shortlisted for the 167th International Photography Exhibition of the Royal Photographic Society (Bristol, UK), and for the Athens Photo Festival (Athens, Greece). In the same year, she received third prize and a jury mention in Water competition of the New York Center for Photographic Art (New York, USA), and a mention at the Pangue Video Festival by Building Bridges Foundation (Los Angeles, USA).\nIn 2025, she received a special jury mention at the 112th National Visual Arts Salon at Palais de Glace (Buenos Aires, Argentina) and was a finalist for the Fresh Photo Award at Klompching Gallery (New York, USA).\nShe has also received distinctions from LensCulture (USA), Lenscratch (USA), and Femgrafía (Mexico), among other international recognitions.\n\nDeeply rooted in sensitive observation and immersive engagement with the landscape, her work reflects on the relationship between human beings and nature, understanding the creative act as a process of co-creation with the natural environment.\n","user_id":544538,"name":"Carolina Baldomá","website":"www.carolinabaldoma.com"},{"id":164588,"bio":"      I am a Toronto-based photographer whose work explores a variety of themes such as  social behaviour of bathers in communal hot springs, participants in rituals of spirituality, refugee shelters in Canadian/U.S.A. border areas and most recently the Roxham Road border crossing.\n     I have  exhibited widely over the past twenty-five years  My editorial work can be found in major Canadian and international publications.

I am focusing on intimate photography as a form of selflove and personal development. This kind of photography came to me while I worked as a wedding photographer. I realised that it is intimacy between couples what fascinates me not the wedding itself. At the same time I went through my own processes - exploring my inner self, my feelings, my vulnerability. My work as a photographer and my desire to feel welcome and good as I am when getting into connection began melting into each other. I started creating photoshoots as safe exploration spaces for couples and women. Seeing people blossom and grow in front of my camera welcoming everything what is part of them felt and feels so fullfilling for me that it was clear to me to go all in and quit weddingphotography. It is my vision to enable people to get a new and loving view on their intimate expression, their bodies and their vulnerablity. Every photoshoot is a process which often starts long before we took a single picture and lasts far beyond the photoshoot. In the meantime I started photographing men aswell and I would love to integrate the gender subject into my work in the future. Thank you very much for your attention.

I get a lot of fun out of this and it gives me lots of energy. \n\nWhat I experience in these hobbies is the rough, pure and real sense of life. Jumping off a kerb on your skateboard has something pure. No focus and you will fall, too tense and you will fall, too many other things in your head, and you will fall. So there has to be some kind of balance between focus and relaxation... so that everything in your head disappears into the background and you only have room for that moment, and that, I think, is 'real'. Either you fall horribly on your face or you jump off that kerb and drive on smoothly. Isn't that a wonderful metaphor for life?\n\nYes, and what does that have to do with my pictures? Everything. I'm always looking for pure and real moments when I take pictures. As much as possible as life is and goes.

His passion for art led him to Paris, where he pursued a degree in Plastic Arts from the renowned Sorbonne.\n\nValery's talent did not go unnoticed, and the Bulgarian Cultural Institute in Paris nominated him for the prestigious Cartier-Bresson Award. Over the course of several years, he exhibited his work in 35 consecutive exhibitions across Europe. In the end, Valery chose to step back from the exhibition world and returned to his homeland of Bulgaria, where he founded the first online art gallery in Eastern Europe in 2011.\n\nAs an art dealer, Valery was able to work independently while preserving his artistic freedom. This allowed him to develop various long-term photography projects, culminating in the establishment of the PhotoAnthology Foundation in 2021. The foundation's mission is to promote artistic practices in photography and execute documentary projects of public importance.\n\nIn 2022, Valery published his first photobook, \"The Last Man Standing In The Rhodope Mountains,\" the result of 14 years of expeditions to 985 villages in the Rhodopes. His captivating and evocative photographs have caught the attention of major institutions around the world, with his work being a part of collections in the MEP Paris, the Museum of Photography in Berlin, the Nederlands Fotomuseum in Rotterdam, the Evgenii Evtushenko Museum in Moscow, and others.\n\nValery's most recent project, \"Father and Son,\" has been selected as a juror's pick and finalist in the esteemed LensCulture Portrait Awards 2023.

During the next 20+ years I honed my perspective, teaching myself my craft through nation and worldwide travels, amidst the rigors of military life, on the floor with two children under two, during countless client sessions, and within the daily rhythms of life, business and art in the small Texas town I currently call home. My work is the embodiment of my spirited ability to dive to the depths as naturally as I soar and assume the shape of the wind. As a creator, I translate the resulting raw understanding of both shadow and light encountered in those spaces with each image created.Through this highly intuitive process, alternative perspectives surface, creating a shift in the visual conversation through an intimate conjunction of social documentary and abstract aesthetics. I apply this approach to photography and my ongoing exploration of other mediums as well. My beliefs, forged in experience and empathy, are that honesty is the best form of beauty and visual art is one of the most powerful and necessary forces to confront abuses of power and transform narratives, particularly as they relate to gender, sexual identity and race. My forever muses are the profound antics of my children, the process and the real of it; life unfolding in the moment, unideal lighting situations, unfiltered emotion, wild forms and honest souls.","user_id":451455,"name":"Jessica Mall","website":"jgenevieve.com"},{"id":285893,"bio":"Priscilla Pallante’s research focuses on the relation between photography and other disciplines, in order to continuously put under discussion the medium and its limits in the objective reproduction of reality, forcing it to create unusual alliances with science, new technologies, sound and installation.\nIn the artist’s experimentations there is an obsessive attitude in the research of the representation of non visible aspects of reality, in a process of eternal suspension between reality and  fiction.\n\nhttps://www.priscillapallante.com\npallantepriscilla@gmail.com\n","user_id":285291,"name":"Priscilla Pallante","website":"www.priscillapallante.com"},{"id":731964,"bio":"After 3 years as head of chemistry in a Leicestershire school while pursuing a personal interest in photography, I won a scholarship in 1974 from the Royal College of Art for an MA in photography.

A Photographic Journey\n\u2028I am retired now and an enthusiastic photographer. Formerly, I focussed upon landscape and nature, but the early hours and heavy kit bags were making this increasingly difficult. My Nikon kit was replaced by smaller and lighter Fuji X equipment and since that time I have downsized once more to try micro four thirds in the shape of the Panasonic G9. ( I am hoping that soon I might be able to afford a telephoto lens and resume photography of birds, something I enjoyed before).\nAt the moment I am focussing on street photography and travel, events and portraits. I like telling stories with sets of pictures and am hoping to find a documentary style. It is quite a challenge changing equipment and genres at this stage in life but I am still enjoying it!\nPrimarily I do this for myself but I am hoping to create a website soon.

When I was 18 years old, I left my homecountry with the aim to find myself. I was lost and didn’t know what to do with my life. Therefore, I decided to go to Ireland to learn English, travel and have new experiences. In the meantime I also traveled to Germany to visit my family since my father is German. The trip was a-ha moment in my life, when I realised that I couldn’t communicate with my own relatives. I have postponed my return to Brazil and went to Munich to learn German. After all, I ended up staying in Munich. In the last few years in Germany I have had several types of work, I have already worked in cafes, restaurants, delivering food by bicycle, until photography found me, even without having experience, never having touched a professional camera, I got a job as an event photographer. It wasn’t my dream job, but it was enough to know that photography was my passion, for that reason I decided to study photodesigner, which helped me to find my own style in photography. Sometimes it’s quite a challenge to be on my own, far from my home country. Discovering photography was a way of rescuing myself. It gives me meaning, something I can hold on to. As long as I have photography I will never be alone.","user_id":615686,"name":"Nayara Schneider","website":""},{"id":681278,"bio":"Creating fine art within the various mediums of Photography, Sculpture, Installation and Graphic Design.","user_id":680694,"name":"Thomas Francisco","website":"www.thomasfranciscofineart.com"},{"id":695952,"bio":"","user_id":695368,"name":"Mônica Barbosa","website":""},{"id":463184,"bio":"Not much to say about me.

He lives in Prague.\n\n\nEssay by art historian Magdalena Jurikova, published in the photography book \"Tono Stano\" (Torst editions, 2005):\n\nWhere Tono Stano comes from, everything happens in a straightforward way, without further ado, taking a clear, traditional direction. Paradoxically, however, his work is sophisticated and provocatively mysterious – but only at first sight. In fact, it is based on naturalness and manly honesty, which are accompanied by an independent, vivid, almost Vernian imagination.\nIn his work he subjects everything to this without compromise. When he takes on a commission, he usually does so because his client has a similar imagination and expects full service from him, in other words the conception and execution. His work and the rest of his life are not separated by any fixed boundary; they are intertwined. Everything matures in him together with the roles he must play in life and they coalesce with his occupation. He is willing to perceive every detail, no matter how banal, as well as things of fundamental importance, because it is in the contrast between the two that the legendary spark that ignites the motor of imagination is born.\nWhen he began a secondary school for the graphic arts in Bratislava, he originally enrolled in the graphic-art program. As luck would have it, however, that department had no more openings and he settled instead for photography. It was Milota Havránková, a now legendary figure of the school and of Slovak photography in general, who helped him to make the choice. Her personal, captivating example and commitment so convinced Stano, that he gave up his initial plans to study graphic art without the slightest regret. Her sophisticated teaching and experience revealed the magical world of photography to him in unexpected dimensions. His subsequent practical experience and study confirmed these intensive experiences for him.\nAfter a year’s intermezzo, where he worked as a photographer on film sets (it was probably then that his attitude to exploring human identity became encoded in him), he began studying at FAMU, Prague. Several Slovak students soon formed a group there, which, owing to the many ways they differed from their Czech surroundings, attracted attention and went on to achieve success. With their playfulness, eroticism, and irony, and with the related spontaneous dynamics of the picture, they punched holes in the contemplative, existential atmosphere of black-and-white photography in Bohemia.\nThe young wave of staged photography was a bit like a cold shower on the Czechoslovak scene at the time. The prankish abandon with which they burst on the scene was gradually institutionalized and the widespread popularity of their actions artificially extended the lifespan of this stream of photography.\nToday, the large group – in particular, Stano, Vasil Stanko, Miro Švolík, and Rudo Prekop – is now almost twenty years old, part of history. Stano is one of the few who managed in time, with honor, and without sentimentality, to abandon this dried-out riverbed. Back then, however, like the others, he most often worked with a number of absurd encounters of things, figures, and situations on a simple stage. Sometimes the almost lusty exuberance and open eroticism were not merely a provocation or a slap in the face of the regime and the clichés in the field. Paradoxically, under the foam of the pranks and irony, his conviction about the seriousness and importance of his own message always lay in the subject. He rejected pure experiment, experiment without deeper meaning. Unlike others he did not take advantage of the self-serving stage elements that were being used; even back then he preferred natural, human things like food and clothing. The body, naked or clad, was not merely an aesthetic object. Stano worked mercilessly with human facial expression and limbs. He demanded a lot from his models; their physical performances often bordered on acrobatics. He captured them floating together in a simultaneous leap or as they lifted each other up. He often used the tension in the muscles of the body and face as an element of narrative and also purely pictorially. With the mutual interaction of the force of the figures, he achieved atmospheres that were sometimes full of an almost ominous or purely instinctual tension (Adam and Eve, 1984). At other times they are stylized curves of motion, gentle and lovingly fragile (The Kiss, 1986). Or, by contrast, they attain an ironic extremity (Right-angle Flight, 1985–86). By distinctively manipulating bodies and objects, he would partly reveal the story. He uses the figure just as the calligrapher who gives the brush great spontaneous energy, resulting in a powerful gesture. Although Stano was the only director on the stage, the obvious individuality of the actors in his photographs visibly placed the additional potential of their physical and mental individuality into the action. It was here that the two poles were formed from which Stano’s ideas flow – his unrestrained imagination on the one hand and his models’ diverse, inspirational talent to move and to be actors on the other. Although Stano energetically pursues his aim as a strong individual, he is by nature conscious of the abilities and talents of those who surround him during his work.\nAt FAMU in 1985–86 Stano completed a calendar project in which he used various fields of human activity as his topics. The calendar became the essence of his work at the time. The staged “tableaux vivants” scintillate with irony and blur the terms of his topics such as “industry,” “agriculture,” and “culture.” Their witty arrangement was achieved with the help of utterly banal props and intentionally naive contrasts, which totally do away with the original state-building dignity and seriousness of these “pillars of society.” Culture, for example, is brought to life by two figures, of which the one on the left is playing in pantomime at being a violin virtuoso and the one on the right is playing at being a caveman draped in fur and performing a dance dedicated to the forces of Nature.\nTo disturb the viewers’ peace and quiet and passivity and to rouse their emotions and intellect has increasingly become Stano’s ambition. In Playing at the Fourth (1986) he joined his fellow photographers Rudo Prekop and Michal Pacina in a conceptual project. In a series based on chance they jointly created figures, as in a children’s game, with a folded sheet of paper, where each participant added his or her own version of the individual parts of the figure. The fourth subject is the viewer, whose task is to decipher the whole. That, however, was only part of the scope of Stano’s interests. Apart from conceptual elements his photographs employ a variety of inspirations, which stem from post-war trends in art and even much earlier ones. He is also seeks impulses in areas not related to high art. With a bit of simplification one can say that he chooses his tools made to measure for each assignment. He doesn’t hesitate to make use of anything that will help him to distance the resulting picture from reality. In that respect the most effective are the situation-photographs, where he uses the minimum of props in their unexpected encounter with a figure or nude (as in Mischief, 1985).\nEven back in the 1980s Stano’s initial youthful student swagger was gradually smoothed out into the elegance of the dandy and aimed for brilliantly engraved scenes. To achieve his mystery and mystification he chose disguises in the glamour style (Keep the Secret, 1988). The whole group of posing figures is often covered in black taffeta drapery. Stano takes pleasure in the Baroquely voluminous relief of the richly gathered fabric in opposition to the white skin of the face and hands (Fashion for the Last Journey, 1987). Movement, pressure, and taut muscles provocatively dramatize a scene that, paradoxically, has a utilitarian name.\nAlthough Stano’s photography has never been devoted solely to the nude, the public has perceived it as such from the beginning. In his case, woman’s body has been dominant, but even earlier he enjoyed juxtaposing it with the masculine element. To a certain extent, that is connected with the rules of the art of action and performance, which on the Czechoslovak alternative scene in the 1980s still held a strong position. Sensuality and eroticism are secondary in Stano’s work. Action and movement push their way to the fore and the gestures of the figures are harmonized in the rhythm of the picture. When Stano composes them symmetrically, three-dimensional analogies of the Rorschach test emerges; they are in fact prints of blotches left by folding paper along the vertical axis (Advertising Myths and Superstition in Sexual Life, 1989). The body is presented as a multifunctional mechanism capable also of utterly irrational movement. Because Stano became accustomed to seeing it as source of kinetic energy and took a liking to the dynamic tautness of muscle, he is naturally interested only in physically agile, extremely supple, young people who are aesthetically good looking in all positions. The processes that our physicality submits to with age leave him cold.\nStano perceives the charms of woman’s body as a fascinating natural phenomenon, as a perfectly tuned instrument that resonates thanks not only to the decisiveness of the photographer but also to the willingness and ability of the model. Part of his attitude consists in passion and also respect. Consequently, we perceive the women in his photographs as emancipated beings that have agreed to play an intelligent picture game and are determined to participate in it with verve and commitment. Nor here are Stano’s photos lacking humor, mystery, mystification, or a touch of irony. \n\nHis sense of sculpture is remarkable and it sometimes itself becomes the topic of the photograph. It is clear that for him the elements emerge in a tangle of other contexts during work but he is sufficiently perceptive to make sure they don’t vanish. He likes to use tactilely contrasting components, such as skin against cut hair cast over the lap of a supine model (Untitled, 1989) or a nude curled up with antlers (Fallow-deer Heritage, 1986). Stano covers the bodies of the models with reflective paint, which, with its metallically shiny reflection, creates the illusion of having been cast in bronze. Tresses of black hair are the only reference to the living corporality (Glossy Lady, 1986).\nThe portrait is a genre that attracts Stano. Although it provides fewer opportunities for manipulation, it always presents the challenge of making one look under the shell. It is clear that he chooses subjects he wants to portray and that, again, they are people remarkable for their appearance or occupation or both (Mahulena Bo?anová, 1987, and A?a Geislerová, 1990). The simple arrangement with the perfect texture of light provides an unexpectedly nostalgic expression, whereas at other times he uses the extreme dramatic quality typical of an actor (Tatiana Kabarova, 1990). He subsequently went further, bringing out personal traits in a number of photographs that lie somewhere on the boundary of the portrait. In them he involuntarily comes close to pictures of the Pre-Raphaelites (Art Nouveau Too Late, 1986), detective films (A Very Suspect Man, 1987), Impressionism, and academicism. It is, however, always a matter of atmosphere, not a paraphrase of some other work of art.\nIn the early 1990s Stano began to draw on the signs created by the per­fectly composed full light and dark shadow on the unusual configuration of body curves. The figure sometimes changes from its anthropomorphic basis into an almost mythological hybrid creature (Czech Symbolism, 1990). At other times, thanks to the harsh lighting of the individual details, it becomes a torso or even a fragment, which, however, concentrates within itself all the animal vitality and remains free of the abstractly pure anonymity of volumes (Top, 1994, and Bottom, 1994). For Stano, the possibilities offered by the body and physicality are unlimited. He is bewitched by whatever they offer. He multiplies individual fragments and details, and composes them into symmetric configurations like those in a kaleidoscope (Documentation of a Promise I, 1994, and Documentation of a Promise II, 1994).\n\n\nSense (1992) and Fairytale Creature (1995) – two of Stano’s trademark photographs that have traveled the world, are results of his full-blooded, independent efforts, and are informed by all past experiences of the nude in photography, while finding their current individuality – dynamically pulsating, non-romanticizing, yet supremely aesthetic, embodying the self-confident individual, who is duly aware of his or her own sexuality and physical existence. The bewitchingly stylized torso, which has the sculptural nobility of Classical marble, is an ambiguous symbol that demonstrates not only the sensuality of bodily free­dom but also, despite the almost banal title, an unexpected spiritual dimension.\nJust as he had once employed color and structural material to defamiliarize the picture, Stano later, in the 1990s, tried white liquid in the folds of brown skin in the Local Filling series. It was here that he finally achieved what for him was an unusually rigorous, abstracted, laboratory-like expression, one that would soon be superseded, however, by an explosion of animality.\nThat came to life in another encounter with Nature. His attitude to it, which he seemed to have firmly encoded in his genes, necessarily had to force its way to the surface one day and drive him out of the studio. Thanks to the financial independence gained with a grant from Kodak in appreciation of his previous work, he could literally move for a few years to one of the most beautiful places by the Želivka water reservoir. With a carefully selected group of models, he worked there in all kinds of weather. With his typical intensity he was determined to explore the relations offered by the nude cast into the arms of Nature. Thanks to modern technology he managed to achieve utterly unusual encounters – for example, the naked girl lying in the snow, who is not suffering, however, because she had acquired enough warmth in an improvised sauna beforehand. Long days spent in the middle of the forest and on the shores of the lake gave free reign to the atavistic pleasure derived from one’s own nakedness in the sun, rain, and cold depths. The people set loose into the exotic scenery are feisty but also frightened, vulnerable, and inventive, just as people had been in prehistoric times and have remained to the present day. Only time and place change. In some of the photographs Stano returns to approaches used in staged photography back in the 1980s, when groups and individual figures were captured in?acrobatically arranged positions. The nocturnal natural scenery, however, charges the situation with the atmosphere of a ritual. The women are a bit more passive than they were in the shelter of the studio, as if the photographer wanted to subject them to the mythic forces of Nature. They find themselves under water, weighed down by a stone, like a victim from a ballad, or saving themselves above the water’s surface on a bending bough. Nor here is it a matter of a romantic myth of Man lost in the middle of the mighty, treacherous womb of Nature. It is only playing at being myth and the athletically agile actors thus test a little to see who’s the stronger. We needn’t worry about them; they are well equipped for this strange struggle with Nature.\nStano’s respect for Nature has the same dimension as his admiration for the body. He has no intention of only bowing down to it and last but not least he wants to exploit everything visually attractive that its daytime and nighttime changes have to offer when juxtaposed with Man. In a large, highly diverse series, where he allows himself, here and there, to be captivated by mere scenery, he sometimes works also with spontaneously arising circumstances – and finds himself outside his usual playground. On a large tree he “sets up” a shot buck, which seems to have got itself caught while leaping over a great branch. It is not the first time that Stano has struck such a macabre tone at an almost pompous level. So far, however, he has worked with staged death, not with truly dead creatures. The new “studio” simply offered far more possibilities than he assumed and so he moved in for a long time, hungry for the unexpected opportunities which such a changing, vital environment teems with. Sometimes, however, he is stunned by the magic of Nature and he limits himself only to an easily ignorable intervention. A nude masked by leaves and ferns, for instance, grows into the trunk of an old tree (Forest Work, 2001) with such credible expressiveness that from our bird’s-eye-view we have a hard time figuring out what it is.\nTo this day the important, monumental series called Fascination remains for Stano a living organism, which will probably have a number of offshoots. This topic has not yet been exhausted for him even by the exhibition held simultaneously at three Prague venues (the Prague House of Photography, NoD, and Bílkova ulice).\nApart from this so far unlimited project, of course, other projects, differently oriented, have emerged. In 2003, Stano summarized his years of working at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival in the publication Stars, which depicts interesting actors and directors who have crossed paths with him. As a portraitist he is inventive and probably has enough charisma to win over his subjects for his often difficult arrangements (although these people are better equipped than others for unusual situations). They, in turn, show their magnanimity and congenial playfulness. All the photographs perfectly describe the relaxed, friendly atmosphere of this international film festival, whose popularity is based precisely on the lack of formality and on efforts to achieve closer contact between actors and audiences. None the less, it is when Stano decides for a completely everyday atmosphere and abandons the typical Karlovy Vary props, that his portraits are the most convincing (for example, those of Carlos Saura, Morgan Freeman, and V?ra Chytilová).\nThe portraits from other milieus, especially those of Stano’s friends associated with the Pražská p?tka (the Prague Five) group of theaters, of whom he works most with Aleš Najbrt (a graphic designer and actor of the Sklep theater), are made more or less randomly. Over the years, however, a remarkable number of them have accumulated. Many of the portraits cross over from the sphere of personal memory and often express much more than merely the photographer’s affection for the people he has portrayed.\nWork with the Tros Sketos group (František Skála, Jaroslav Róna, and Aleš Najbrt) provided Stano with more interesting experience in, among other things, the portrait, while the hoaxing and parodic pranks of the unusual trio have much in common with his own point of view. They came together also in Karlovy Vary, where, in 2003, they made a commercial and became the mascots of the Festival. Their group portrait also appears in Stars.\nSince 1991 Stano has been working on portraits made with a camera inherited from Josef Sudek. Owing to a lack of suitable film material he began to experiment with making photographs directly on paper. The result is more than 45 head-portraits on which he has made collages using negative and positive photographic details. He has so far kept to himself the ghostly images that emerged from this, but is preparing a whole set of them for a book, which will bring out the bipolar structure of the negative and positive fragments.\nIt has been twenty years since Stano’s energetic arrival on the photography scene in what was then Czechoslovakia. It is Stano in particular who has kept all the promises that he and his friends made with uncommon vitality in the middle of the 1980s.\nHe has received many international awards and leading museums of photography and modern art want his works. Connoisseurs and agencies are also interested. Stano has achieved the status of an absolutely free, independent artist. And he is always able to acquit himself with honor because he is used to fighting for the results. He is tenacious, restless, and always curious about new encounters and experience. To the present day his way of expressing himself can hardly be regulated by the channels of some new style. He makes use of everything he finds interesting. Fearlessly he draws both upon the Classical heritage and fairground culture. He cares about the aesthetic appeal of the final product, but, as he himself says, would never like it to be absolutely perfect. The typical features of his photographs are tension and dynamism, which stand in contrast to the work of other people doing staged photography, who tend to prefer the statically fixed scene. It is precisely this tension and dynamism, which leads Stano to increasingly close contact with dance and movement theater and could in the future lead to his making other, so far untried, variations on one of his favorite themes.\n\n\nSelected Solo Exhibitions\n\n1984\tFAMU, Láza?ský palác, Prague\nGaleria fotografií Okno, Legnica\n1985\tWalbrzyska Galeria Fotografií, Walbrzych\n1986\tFotochema, Prague\n1987\tGalerie Fabrik, Hamburg\n1988\tGalerija Ars, Ljubljana\n1989\tMusée Lapidaire, Lectoure\nGalerie G4, Cheb\n1990\tLe pont neuf Gallery, Paris\nCentre Culturel des Prémontrés, Pont-à-Mouson\nGalerie G4, Cheb\nMala gallery, Warsaw\nFondation Nationale de la Photographie, Lyon\n1992\tGalerie U ?e?ických, Prague\n1993\tAmbrosiana, Brno\n1995\tNational Technical Museum, Prague\n1996\tGalerie Marzee, Nijmegen\nDom kultury, Bratislava\n2000\tSchoren, St. Gallen, Switzerland\n2001\tFascination, Prazsky Dum Fotografie, Prague\nPhoto l.a., booth of Galerie Waldburger/photofront, Los Angeles\n2002\tFascination, Galerie G4, Cheb\nGalerie Waldburger \u0026amp; Slovak Institute \u0026amp; Czech Centre, Berlin\nFascination, D?m um?ní, Brno\nCzech Centre Bratislava\nFascination, Galerie Fiducia, Ostrava\n2004\tInstitut Fran¢ais, Budapest\nGalerie Baudelaire, Antwerp\n2008\tLouvre Gallery of Photography, Prague\n2010\tWhite Shadow, Galerie Baudelaire, Antwerp\n2011\tWhite Shadow, Vaclav Spala Gallery, Prague\n2012\tWhite Shadow, Galerie 4, Cheb\n2012\tWhite Shadow, Pace/MacGill Gallery, New York City\n2013\tWhite Shadow + Guests, Galerie Robert Doisneau\n\nSelected Group Exhibitions\n\n1984\tFOMA, Prague\t\n1985\t27 Contemporary Czechoslovak Photographers, The Photographer’s Gallery, London and Bristol\nUrsprung und Gegenwart tschechoslowakischer Photographie ,Fotografie Forum, Frankfurt \nIl nudo nella fotografia dell’Est Europa, Torina Fotografia ’85, Torino`\t\n1986\tLa jeune photographie Tchécoslovaque, Arena, Arles\nMánes, Prague\nUPM, Prague\t\n1987\tPreis für junge europäische Photographen, Frankfurter Kunstverein, Frankfurt\nGalerie G4, Cheb\t\n1988\tPreis für junge europäische Photographen, Galerie Faber, Vienna \nDe Prague et de Bohême, Espace Jules Verne, Brétigny sur Orge\nQuestioning Europe, Photography Biennale, Rotterdam\nFotochema, Prague\t\n1989\tPrix Air France, Ville de Paris, Paris\nFrench Institute, Prague\nPrager Trio, Czechoslovak Centre, Berlin\nJunge Photographen aus der CSSR, Galerie Treptow, Berlin\nFour Photographers from Prague, Aix-en-Provence\t\n1990\tLa Tchécoslovaquie à Arles, Palais de l’Archevêché, Arles\nPhotographie progressive en Tchécoslovaquie 1920-1990, Galerie Robert Doisneau, Nancy\nSlovak Photography of the 1980s’, Warsaw and Moscow\nPositivität, Fotogalerie, Vienna\nVision d’Homme, Chatêau d’Eau, Toulouse\nCzech Symbolism, Výstavní sí?

Followed online as the Major City/100 City Project, Forrest’s largest work had him walking over 20 km/day for five years, as he explored and photographed all aspects of big city life solo on foot, finding small worlds within each major city, while connecting the whole world through its people and life. Forrest’s other projects cover a range of topics, including fathers, population, and the phenomena of age, all with the same love for getting inside life to bring out the authentic character and unique interest it can contain.","user_id":116893,"name":"Forrest Walker","website":"www.fdwalker.com"},{"id":699534,"bio":"","user_id":698950,"name":"Ante Šimić","website":""},{"id":155412,"bio":"Heres a bit about me, I’m a portraiture photographer of British-Greek heritage.

Joining his father on shoots and in the darkroom, Shin honed traditional techniques. Feeling he could not surpass his father, he studied modern art photography, experimenting with slide film, multiple exposures, and vibrant colors to forge a unique style. Yet, his father’s candid remark, “something is missing,” revealed Shin’s early work as lacking depth, feeling forced and immature, sparking a lifelong quest for authenticity and meaning.\nSince 1995, Shin has blended tradition and innovation, capturing intimate portraits of family, friends, and neighbors with a vintage 4x5 wooden camera and black-and-white film, developing the negatives himself. Digitally scanned and printed with inkjet technology, his work merges analog warmth with modern clarity. Guided by his father’s teachings, it pursues the emotional depth he once lacked.\nEach portrait captures human connection, gently holding the warmth and individuality of its subjects. Shin’s photography transcends documentation, embodying his pursuit of authenticity beyond daily routines. Guided by his father’s words, his work is a journey to uncover true purpose, softly capturing bonds that resonate deeply.\n\n\n\n\n\nBorn in Sendai, Japan in 1965.

Ik maak al jaren foto’s en sinds 2002 maak ik thematische fotoseries en exposeer ik met mijn werk. Ik deed inmiddels mee aan 50+ exposities (nationaal en internationaal) en publiceerde werk in magazines, nieuwsbladen, websites, op cd’s, dvd’s en op boeken. \n\nWat in mensen leeft heeft me altijd aangesproken en kan me diep raken. Daarom werk ik altijd vanuit een thema. Ik maak nooit zomaar foto’s. Thematiek is belangrijk voor mij. Het is het fundament voor mijn fotokunst. \nZo maakte ik in 2004 de serie  “The Bond”, met meer dan veertig moeders (die ik individueel fotografeerde) met hun kind aan de borst, om zo de speciale band tussen moeder en kind en de bijzondere vreugde die daarbij zichtbaar is, vast te leggen. Tussen 2008 en 2015 maakte ik de serie “Nooit Meer Vrij”, een fotoserie over vrijheid en onvrijheid gebaseerd op de 7 series die ik in deze periode maakte in de overblijfselen van de Duitse concentratiekampen op Nederlandse bodem. En in 2015 besloot ik de gevoelens en emoties vast te leggen wanneer mensen (vaak slecht) met elkaar communiceren, onder de titel “See Me, Hear Me, Heal Me, deel 1”. De serie toont woede, verdriet, frustratie, angst, onmacht en ook vreugde en reikt daardoor verder dan alleen communicatie. Het toont puur menselijk gevoel.\n\nExpressies leven in mijn foto’s. Onderhuids of juist totaal leesbaar in de ogen van het model, ze horen bij mijn werk. Daar ligt mijn kracht. Of ze zijn leesbaar in mijn eigen ziel, diep vanbinnen. Beiden leg ik vast. Omdat ik niet van poses hou, fotografeer ik “tussen de momenten door”, door met het model te praten over het onderwerp en zo de emotie te vangen met mijn camera, zonder bezig te zijn met een pose.\n\nSinds 2015 ben ik bezig aan een vervolg op de serie “See Me, Hear Me, Heal Me”. Ik heb sindsdien mensen vastgelegd die door alleen zijn heel eenzaam zijn (de ingezonden foto) of door een stoornis als bijvoorbeeld autisme, of door onbegrip zich heel eenzaam voelen. Weer anderen lijden continue fysieke pijn, innerlijke pijn of lieten vanwege borstkanker een borstbesparende operatie doen. Ze worden vaak niet begrepen en voelen zich daardoor ook eenzaam. Ik legde deze mensen en hun emoties vast. Lijden is de rode draad hier. Veel mensen die het moeilijk hebben in hun leven herkennen zich in mijn werk. Ze vinden er troost in en putten er kracht uit.\n","user_id":541241,"name":"Izaak Slagt","website":"www.izaakpslagt.smugmug.com/browse"},{"id":48,"bio":"Artist Biography\n\nNancy LeVine is an award winning photographer who has traveled worldwide on a variety of assignments.

In the early years, when I was being transfixed (pun) by watching a print appear, as if by magic, in the fixer bath, I fell deeply and forever in love with photography. Here was a medium wherein I could attempt to make manifest how I saw the world; I could show others what was inside my mind in a concrete and physical way, black, white and gray on a piece of paper that could be handled and pinned to a wall, that was unchanging and finished.
