Ok What a Week this is going to be! Let's start of with "DELICATESSEN" BY MICHAEL SCATURRO OPENING AT RETRAMP GALLERY, WED AUGUST 18TH 18-21H
The mainly analog photos of the American photographer and journalist Michael Scaturros tell us about life in cities. With the perspective of the flâneur, we roam the streets and passages of major cities and their crowds. From 2007 to 2019 through New York, Berlin, London and Miami. Meanwhile, they are also documents of time, reminiscent of a bygone era before the pandemic. This happens particularly impressively with the photos of pre-Brexit commuting in London. Here we realize how quickly times change. @retramp @mpstoo

“STILL BREATHING” TUCA PAOLI : A POP UP SHOW ON THU, 19 AUG, 18 – 23H
After years of work as a film and television director, Tuca Paoli returns to photography in the midst of a pandemic and, camera in hand, embarks on exploring her environment and the relationships between the captured images and other media such as painting and collage. Cracks, knots, holes and the dramatic shapes of the branches bare by winter appear in her paintings all stained up with brilliant colours that resonate her moods. Presence, stillness, sufficiency. Magic can happen in the forest.

SPACERS Simon Mullan @Dittrich&Schlectriem. The architect and exponent of minimalism Mies van der Rohe presented a definition of the art of building; Mullan takes up his ideas in his series Popularis. Conventional bathroom tiles are laid to make pictures or become part of minimalist sculptures. Such lucidity of function and form, too, owes much to Mies. Proportions and the details of execution are key. Less is more.
