Welcome I think I'm getting most of the exhibitions and galleries that show photography into the newsletter. I am on so many mailing lists and have 240 sites i check each month for updates. If I miss things or you have a show or business not listed, please let me know via email. This month we started the list of businesses that scan film, feel free to tell me of more! I've been very focused on getting XYZ Photo Galley's This Thing; Photography show up. It is a fantastic show. This is just the beginning, the gallery scene is back! There is a lot to check out. Note that seeing a print on the wall and taking in the texture scale and detail is a far more rewarding experience than flicking a screen. Big news in opportunities is that Magnum is doing an open call to start the process to join. We are about building community. Feedback is welcome! If anyone can make and store custom maps on Google, I'd love to put all this information as a map overlay so readers can find the closest services to them. Previous listings stored on reframe-refocus.xyz. Our goal is to reach as many people as we can and bring the photo community in Victoria together to know and experience all that we have. Each month our content moves to reframe-refocus.xyz for look buy, hire, labs and previous newsletters so that you can view a full list of what is here. |

Blackcat Gallery - Fitzroy link Sugar Faith Stellmaker Exhibition 16 - 27 March Sugar critiques the experiences and social expectations of women in the contemporary moment and explores the ways in which girls present themselves. These images capture the unapologetic comraderyshared between females in both the public and private space. Focusing on ideas of girlhood and gender as aspects that form both positive and negative stereotypes for women, many of her images are taken of women and girls who she has had a close relationship with in order to capture intimate or personal moments. Space 3 Janine McGuinness Opening Reception: 6 - 8:30pm Thur 21 April 2022. Exhibition 26 April - 1 May Janine’s practice concerns the intertwined relationship of people, place, space, and time. Works are often disorienting images of natural space that serve as metaphors for emotional and psychological experiences and are frequently highly experimental. The transience and memory of self and place have also been strong themes in her work. Indeed, place is assumed to be a transformed and highly uncertain setting where the relationship of reality, to the viewer and the internal emotional world, is not fixed. |

PRACTITIONER Sebastião Salgado |

Salgado came to fame for his photographs of Ronald Reagan, but it was his black and white work from the late 1980s that brought him to fame. His background in economics, his empathy and willingness encounter the extremes of the human condition pushed his work to in distinctive way, it is difficult not to tell one of his photographs. He worked in W Eugene Smith's photo story format but joined many together to form a substantial body of work and present it as an exhibition and book. Workers, Migration and Genesis being the biggest. |
