While working on his reportage about zebu rustling in Madagascar, photographer Rijasolo dared set foot in regions that normally remain hidden to the general public.
Introduction to Aging Series I met Aline Smithson at a portfolio review in the fall of 2023 when I showed her my project about my father. When Aline generously offered me the opportunity to curate a collection of four other projects about aging that would be featured on Lenscratch alongside mine, I immediately thought about
I have been photographing my father during my visits to Albuquerque, New Mexico since 2013, the year my mother died. I realized I had few photographs of my parents and felt the urgent need to photograph my father while he was still vital and enjoying life
Today we chat with A. D. Coleman, photography critic and historian, about the history, legacy and controversy of the famous Robert Capa. Known for his groundbreaking photography of the D-Day invasion in 1944
The selection process has been a long one. Over the years your photography changes the way you see things. That applies to editing as well. You may go through your contact sheets and be drawn to an image you took 20 years ago that wouldn’t have perked your interest back then. There have been multiple editing sessions to get the work to where it is now. I’m currently editing to create a book, so I’m hopeful to discover some gems I overlooked before.
Many artists spent the pandemic revisiting family archives, digging into familial legacies in boxes covered in dusty attics, but other artists finally found the time to revisit their own archives. The indefatigable Sage Sohier is one of those artists, who has a long legacy of documenting the human (and animal) condition close to home and
Many artists spent the pandemic revisiting family archives, digging into familial legacies in boxes covered in dusty attics, but other artists finally found the time to revisit their own archives. The indefatigable Sage Sohier is one of those artists, who has a long legacy of documenting the human (and animal) condition close to home and on the streets. The result of her efforts is her eighth book, Passing Time, published by Nazraeli Press and a number of upcoming exhibitions.
Harry Culy’s debut photobook puts this hypothesis to the test. Mirror City collects Culy’s b/w photographs shot upon his return to Te Whanganui-a-Tara (Wellington), after ten years away. Growing up in the New Zealand capital decades earlier, he had come to know the place quite well. He’d explored the underbelly and skateboarded its sidewalks. He’d formed a sense of what it was to be a resident. He’d even made photographs of the city.
This week we feature projects that explore the psychological landscape. There are always fears and inhibitions that we as people carry with us throughout our lives. Some are small and others are large, but there are nagging thoughts that stick out in our minds and mold our perception. Alison McCauley is a photographer who allows
Allison McCauley is a photographer who allows for her subjective experience to constantly be at the forefront of her intuitive-making process. In her specific body of work Anywhere But Here she unpacks an idea that has haunted her forever. She focuses on the notion that where she is right now is not where she is supposed to be, and a certainty that the next place she goes will be superior
In honor of the closing of Reshaping the Earth: Energy and the Environment, an exhibition featuring photographs by Jamey Stillings and David Emitt Adams, we are pleased to share a recent segment of photo-eye Conversations LIVE with David and Jamey. Below the video, are a few installation shots if you haven’t visited the gallery yet.
This week we feature projects that explore the psychological landscape. Sometimes the psychological landscape is something that is formulated in the artist’s mind from an early age. Adolescence and the struggles we all feel to fit in can be a driving factor in how we engage with the world photographically. That is the case for
Sometimes the psychological landscape is something that is formulated in the artist’s mind from an early age. Adolescence and the struggles we all feel to fit in can be a driving factor in how we engage with the world photographically. That is the case for the work of Ian Howorth in his monograph A Country Kind of Silence.
Colleagues described Buell as a visionary who encouraged photographers to try new ways of covering hard news. As the editor in charge of AP’s photo operations from the late 1960s to the 1990s, he supervised a staff that won a dozen Pulitzers on his watch and he worked in 33 countries, with legendary AP photographers including Eddie Adams, Horst Faas and Nick Ut.
Recently, photojournalist Mark Edward Harris sat down with McCullin to discuss his oeuvre, their fellow photographers, and conflicts past and present. (On assignment for Vanity Fair, Harris has covered North Korea as well as the aftermath of both the 2011 Japanese tsunami and the 2015 earthquake in Nepal.)

From outside Gaza, the scale of death and destruction is impossible to grasp, shrouded by communications blackouts, restrictions barring international reporters and extreme challenges facing local journalists.
There are pinholes in the murk, apertures such as the Instagram feeds of Gaza photographers and a small number of testimonies that slip through. With every passing week, however, the light dims as those documenting the war leave, quit or die. Reporting from Gaza has come to seem pointlessly risky to some local journalists, who despair of moving the rest of the world to act.
His pictures look perfectly artless, the opposite of the decisive moment and the epitome of the snapshot aesthetic. Working outdoors, mostly on the urban street, Winogrand didn’t seem to frame anything, and even when his images were thronged with people, nothing much happened in them. A man lit a cigarette, a woman reached into her purse, another woman stepped into a yellow cab. “I like to work in that area where content almost overwhelms form,” he said. The result is an avid, richly detailed, virtually unfiltered descriptiveness.
Former LensCulture Award winners share their best creative advice as well as tips for advancing your career as a portrait-maker and photographer. The second in a two-part series.
For his New Portraits series, Prince appropriated images from users on Instagram, but he also used images that belonged to professional photographers without permission — selling them for up to $100,000 each.
For the past few years while riding my bicycle along the Mediterranean coast near my home, I was startled occasionally by the sight of a massive black cloud of small birds swooping and diving in a tight formation that swirled above me in an enthralling display of aerial pageantry. I always wondered how and why
As Søren Solkær movingly relates in his introduction to Starling, “Through the lens, we venture into a domain where atoms assemble into orderly arrays, molecules form intricate structures, providing a reminder that the same fundamental forces that govern the cosmos also shape the tiniest building blocks of life. In these photographs, we witness the architecture of matter and the choreography of molecules…The parallels between the vast and the miniscule are unmistakable…I hope this body of work will inspire many to strengthen or regain a sensory connection with nature.”
