Just a few months after the re-opening of that photographic temple in southern London called the Photographers Gallery, their most anticipated and important exhibition of the year is now finally open to the public: The 4 Deutsche Börse Photography Prize nominees are showcasing and willing at the same time to become the winner of this year’s £30.000 prize which will be unveiled next September.
Pieter Hugo, Rinko Kawauchi, John Stezaker and Christopher Williams are the lucky 4 we’ve already talked about several times here @ aqnb and whose works showcase a diversity of subject matter and photographic approaches, ranging from documentary photography and the everyday to the recontextualisation of found images and the conceptual.
Works that will then travel to Frankfurt for a quick exhibition from 14 September until 25 October 2012 and then to Berlin’s C/O Forum from 3 November until 13 January 2013. A whole summer to enjoy this free exhibition, Ghana’s capital city dumping grounds, vintage collages or luminous manipulations amongst others, a must visit happening this way.
