She creates moments of unusual beauty that also shed light on what has been previously concealed. Kannisto has her own method for taking pictures of birds, photographing the animals in front of a brilliantly lit, white background. Removed from their usual surroundings, every detail appears in matchless clarity, allowing for precise study. At the same time, this results in a unique visual aesthetic: the feathers glow brightly, the beating wings take on a majestic quality, and the deep black eyes of the birds seem to gaze hauntingly at the camera.

Privileged Mediocrity shows both the brutality and the beauty of everyday American life. Each portrait, each location tells its own complex, moving story – in their entirety, the images capture the longing for the unfulfilled promise of a true democracy. Racism manifests nationwide in infrastructure and planning: from the exclusion and disadvantage of entire neighborhoods, untenable conditions in public housing in areas with high pollution, lack of public transport and other daily necessities, to the displacement of the homeless.

We find them in a process of transformation, hidden behind false facades onto which the promises of the future are projected. It would be tempting to read these Image Cities as a polemic against the triumphal procession of consumerism, whose generic visual codes alter everything that once felt local. Samoylova's photographs are masterful reminiscences of urban photography: human figures dwarfed by giant billboards, moving seemingly indifferently through the urban space, their fragmented silhouettes reflected like collages in shop windows. Samoylova consciously plays with these clichés, deconstructing and recomposing them on a higher level that eludes overly simplistic statements. Instead, she invites us to reflect on the role of photography itself in creating a rift between the staged brand identity of cities and their everyday reality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnastasia Samoylova (b. 1984), who grew up in Moscow, has lived in the USA since 2008.

This was certainly one of the reasons why Quinn was allowed to accompany the artist with his Leica for over 20 years from 1951 during his time on the Côte d'Azur: in the studio, in private, with artist friends, at bullfights, in company, with lovers, or simply at the hairdresser's. The Quinn archive houses a large collection of highly intimate photos that show Picasso in everyday life and document his idiosyncratic character, his humor, and his enthusiasm in an engaging way. Edward Quinn did not use a tripod with his camera, nor did he artificially light the room; his main goal was to create credible images. As a viewer, you find yourself at eye level with the protagonists of the photographs. Almost like in later street photography, there is a casual presence that captivates the viewer.
