A Tragedy of Infinite Beauty – October 9, 2025 | February 28, 2026 HackelBury presents A Tragedy of Infinite Beauty, a solo exhibition by American artists Doug & Mike Starn. ‍ ‍ “starting with the clarity of high-definition photography, we break it down – zooming in, smoothing, revealing the texture of digital noise – until a simulacrum of perception is presented. Vision isn’t a camera. The image is made in your head.” – Doug and Mike Starn   The twins present new works which reflect on impermanence, perception, and the tension between beauty and destruction. The two series on view, Under the Sky and Everything Is Liquid, explore the overwhelming…

Harry Gruyaert – A World in Colour – September 4, 2025 | January 25, 2026 The exhibition “Harry Gruyaert. A World in Colour” shows around 120 images by the Belgian artist and European pioneer of colour photography. Harry Gruyaert created most of his extensive body of work during his trips to countries such as Egypt, India, Morocco, the US, Russia, Spain or France. With his extraordinary sense for composing colour and space, he captures landscapes and urban scenes, emphasising contrasts: the play of light and shadow in an airport terminal, the intense yellow of an American vintage car, the vibrant colours of Moroccan streets or the muted tones of Belgian…

New Beginnings: Philippine Photographic Art ‍ Fotografie Forum Frankfurt Frankfurt| Germany September 27, 2025 | January 11, 2026 Website In light of the dynamic practice of visual culture across time in the Philippines, this exhibition presents a diverse selection of photographic works from an archipelago in Southeast Asia. The artists explore a range of concerns: identity, storytelling, migrant labor, memory, and the concept of home. All these shed vital light on both deeply personal narratives and broader social reflections. Rooted in a complex colonial history and shaped by stark social contradictions, Philippine photographic art often indexes moments of transformation and resilience. Through experimental portraits, installations, and compelling documentary styles, the…

Rooms We Made Safe Huis Marseille October 18, 2025 | February 8, 2026 Next autumn, Huis Marseille will host ‘Rooms We Made Safe’, the first museum exhibition by emerging artist Michella Bredahl (b. 1988, Greve, Denmark).

Lucas Foglia – Constant Bloom Fotomuseum Den Haag May 17, 2025 | September 28, 2025 Photographer Lucas Foglia (1983) has transformed the world’s longest butterfly migration into a powerful metaphor for connection across international borders. For millions of years, Painted Lady butterflies have migrated between Africa, the Middle East, and Europe in search of blooming wildflowers. As climate change shifts when and where wildflowers bloom, these resilient butterflies increasingly rely on human-planted parks, farms, and gardens to survive. Constant Bloom weaves together the story of this delicate yet determined species with that of people, drawing poignant parallels between the butterflies and refugees who follow similar routes in search of safety…

Indifferent West Elliott Gallery September 27, 2025 | January 17, 2026 Indifferent West is a salient visual investigation into the mythology, commercialisation and environmental disruption of the Western landscape. The exhibition features a selection of Mirer’s meticulously composed, vivid photographs spanning over 30 years, capturing the strange beauty and haunting irony of a landscape defined more by fantasy than fact. Mirer’s forthcoming book of the same title, showcasing 108 photographs, launches in conjunction with the show at Elliott Gallery. Drawn from decades of road trips across the American Southwest, Mirer’s jarring images aim to both play into and subtly disrupt our collective cultural memory of the mythic American Frontier. A…

I Still Dream of Lost Vocabularies Autograph October 10, 2025 | March 21, 2026 This major group exhibition examines how photographs can be deconstructed and reassembled through the idea of collage, offering new perspectives on complex histories and contested social realities. With deep roots in activism and artistic experimentation, photomontage has a rich legacy as a powerful tool for artists engaging with experiences of political dissent and erasure. Its possibilities are amplified by the relentless evolution of photography – a medium shaped by technological advancement and the shifting politics of representation. From cut paper to generative AI, more than 90 works by 12 contemporary artists use collage as both method…
