Gregory Crewdson

The artist

Born in 1962 in Brooklyn, Gregory Crewdson lives and works in New York. A leading figure in American photography, he stages his photographs like films, using actors, sets, props people, storyboards and make-up artists. In this way, he addresses the dark side of the American dream as well as his own psychological issues. He believes that only photography always remains silent. There is no before and no after. The events it captures do not unveil their mystery.

AMERICAN PHOTOGRAPHY – SOLO SHOW

Albertina Museum, Albertinapl. 1, 1010 Wien Vienna 
Until November 28, 2021

L’exposition du musée Albertina fait la part belle cette saison au renouveau de l’iconographie américaine après 1945. Les photographes ont fait un road trip et ont créé des séries qui dépeignent la société américaine sous un jour critique. Pour capter la dynamique des grandes villes, la tendance était d’utiliser un langage pictural spontané, proche de l’instantané. En revanche, d’autres travaux impliquent la mise en scène de tableaux élaborés, semblables à des films, qui permettent de s’interroger sur la réalité et l’illusion photographiques, ainsi que sur les évolutions sociétales.

« UN GOûT DE VACANCES, DES SAVEURS D’éTé » – GROUP SHOW

Abbaye Saint André – Centre d’art contemporain
Place du Bûcher, Meymac
From July 11 to October 17, 2021

Summer goes with vacation. It is a time for going out, for walking in the middle of nature, for bathing in the sea. It is the period when we pick up fruits, where we cultivate our garden, where we spend time with our family and friends, where we meet people. It is about camping, swimming, tanning on the beach, sailing, surfing, paragliding, discovering new places, traveling. Because of the pandemic we were likely to forget it. Through their works and installations, the guest artists bring this back to life, and rekindle our emotions.

LE MAUVAIS OEIL – GROUP SHOW

FRAC Auvergne, 6 Rue du Terrail, 63000 Clermont-Ferrand, France

Major photographer Gregory Crewdson takes part in the exhibition “The Evil Eye”, held at the FRAC Auvergne. The exhibition, based both on the female figure of the Oracle and on the prediction and signs of a global collapse, is an artistic reflection on the state of our contemporary world. The evil eye, an archaic figure of anathema, finds its most diverse variations in this exhibition.
