Widely known for his off-the-cuff Marc Jacobs ads featuring candid portraits of celebrity friends, Juergen Teller's photographs tap into the current zeitgest of intimate, spontaneous, unstructured, and cleverly voyeuristic image-making. But in his current solo exhibition at Foundation Cartier pour L'Art Contemporain in Paris, Teller shows a body of work called Nürnberg. Taken over four seasons, the images document an abandoned Nazi propaganda site and—in typical Teller style—add a delicate romanticism to what otherwise would be a mundane, even desolate, scene.
The show also includes a selection of well-known images and a series shot in Japan, which—much like contemporaries Ryan McGinley and Nan Goldin—is highly personal work that results from the repoire he has with his subjects.
Through 21 May 2006.

by Zeva Bellel In the wee morning hours of 1 February 2008, a four-alarm fire ravaged Deyrolle, Paris' most beloved taxidermy shop. Photographer Laurent Bochet's forthcoming book 1000º C: Deyrolle documents the aftermath with hauntingly beautiful images of the shop. “The scene had a Pompeii feeling to it, almost like an archeological dig,” recalls Bochet of the charred and ransacked insides of the nearly two-hundred-year-old...

by Anna Carnick Inspired by his friend James Dean, Dennis Hopper explains his new monograph this way, “I was doing something that I thought could have some impact someday. In many ways, it’s really these photographs that kept me going creatively." In 1955, an 18-year-old Hopper met 24-year-old Dean on the set of Rebel Without a Cause and the two became immediately inseparable. Prior...
Panos Tsagaris uses the projection of light and geometric angles to create mystical images and photographs. Hailing from Athens, Greece but working and residing New York, Tsagaris recently collaborated with Kimberley Norcott, creating works that play with the ideas of emerging light, the human perception of eternity and the symbolism of the sun. While the images speak to a sense of time and inspiration,...
