Exhibition: Conversations - Joel Meyerowitz

Opening Reception at Howard Greenberg Gallery from 3-5PM on Saturday, April 20th

The current Tate Modern exhibition and the new book A Question of Color pair Meyerowitz’s color work with his black and white images created moments apart with two different cameras. Those pairings gave Meyerowitz the idea for his fifth exhibition at Howard Greenberg Gallery. Joel Meyerowitz: Conversations focuses on how specific color images in juxtaposition speak to each other and give added meaning for contemplation, both engaging the viewer in the act of looking and offering a challenging invitation to decipher the connections.

Exhibition: EUROPA, Museo Picasso Málaga

Exhibition: EUROPA, Museo Picasso Málaga

In 1966, at the age of 28, Meyerowitz embarked on road trip through Europe. He drove 20,000 miles through 10 countries and took 25,000 photographs. During this period, Meyerowitz settled in Málaga for six months. This unique experience, which resulted in an extraordinary photographic record of Spain during the height of the Francoist dictatorship, was hugely influential for Meyerowitz and had a long-lasting impact on his signature style of photography.

Featuring vintage and large-format prints in color and black and white, the exhibition will present an in-depth account of Meyerowitz’s travels through England, Wales, Ireland, Scotland, France, Spain, Germany, Turkey, Greece and Italy, centering on the significance of his stay in Málaga. The exhibition features everyday street scenes, urban and natural landscapes, and photographs taken from inside his moving car. The exhibition also features the original prints from his first solo exhibition at MoMA in 1968.

Exhibition: Huxley Parlour - Between The Dog And The Wolf

Exhibition: Huxley Parlour - Between The Dog And The Wolf

Huxley-Parlour is pleased to present thirteen large-scale photographs by American photographer, Joel Meyerowitz. Taking his acclaimed photoseries – Between The Dog and the Wolf – as a point of departure, the exhibition radically extends his historic body of work with the addition of photographs from contemporaneous series. All the works are shot on the same large format camera, and causally linked by their unique exploration of color and evening summer light. Spanning two decades, Joel Meyerowitz’ pictures bespeak his position as a pioneer of modern, color photography.

Originally published as a photobook, Between the Dog and the Wolf captures serene swimming pools girdled by expansive seas and endless, twilight horizons in Cape Cod throughout the 70s and 80s. The contrast between pools and the ocean is not only an aesthetic one, but a philosophical contrast too: the title comes from the French phrase ‘entre chien et loup’, alluding to oncoming twilight. Meyerowitz notes, “It seemed to me that the French liken the twilight to the notion of the tame and the savage, the known and the unknown, where that special moment of the fading of the light offers us an entrance into the place where our senses might fail us slightly, making us vulnerable to the vagaries of our imagination.”

“Sculpting Reality" Exhibition at PHotoESPAÑA 2022

This exhibition presents an ample selection of photographic series from the Per Amor a l’Art Collection - Fundació Per Amor a l’Art, which survey the history of documentary-style photography from its inception in the early twentieth century to the present day. Representing different perspectives and geographical settings, these pieces illustrate a broad spectrum of aesthetic and conceptual intentions. Although most of them are rooted in the idea of the mere photographic act as an unequivocal way of depicting reality without artifice, together they form a collection of images that reflect on the narrative capacity of the documentary and its relationship with truth, the interpretation and construction of the scene, and the photograph’s potential as a document to embody political stances in its aspiration to immortalise the social, political and cultural realities of the places it portrays.

Robert Frank / Henri Cartier-Bresson / Joel Meyerowitz / Susan Meiselas / Ricardo Rangel / David Goldblatt / Jürgen Schadeberg / Yto Barrada / Humberto Rivas / Lewis Baltz / Edward Ruscha / Bernd & Hilla Becher / Luigi Ghirri / Xavier Ribas / Paul Graham / Bleda and Rose / Ian Wallace

Curated by Sandra Guimarães and Vicente Todolí

Book Launch of Joel Meyerowitz, Wild Flowers

Book Launch of Joel Meyerowitz, Wild Flowers

This new and expanded edition of Joel Meyerowitz’s widely acclaimed photobook, Wild Flowers—now, in a larger format, features new and unpublished images. For nearly forty years Joel Meyerowitz has tended his visual garden in the streets and parks and cities he has visited or lived in.

He goes out into the streets open-eyed and passionate, carrying a machine which is perfectly suited to the task of taking it all in. The Leica, as quick as the flick of an eyelash, effortlessly interrupts time, stopping and holding it forever. These walks gave shape to new territory for him, which he began to think of as a garden that reflected the variety of his observations. Then, one day, while editing, Meyerowitz stumbled upon a small group of these flower photographs which he had gathered unknowingly. He began to believe that this innocent premise might be enough to tie together many of his other photographic concerns under the nominal subject of ‘flowers,’ which, given the surprises of city life, he viewed as flowers gone somewhat berserk—and so Wild Flowers was born.

European release in early March . US release April 13th.
