5 international photographers to keep on your radar

On view at MoMA, and hailing from the US to Nepal, they ‘use photography to connect within their communities and across nation-states’

By Janelle Zara

Launched in 1985, the ‘New Photography’ series of exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York has showcased the groundbreaking work of more than 150 artists. For its 40th anniversary edition, the organizers were guided by ‘the radical potential of image-making as a mode of resistance and free imagination,’ says Roxana Marcoci, Acting Chief Curator of Photography at MoMA.

‘New Photography 2025: Lines of Belonging’ features 13 international artists and collectives from New Orleans, Mexico City, Kathmandu, and Johannesburg – four cities, according to the exhibition text, whose cultural history predates the official formation of their respective countries. The throughline that emerged was a spirit of collective solidarity, where photography served as a vehicle for bringing embattled communities together. Across these overlapping themes and commonalities, the artists present a striking range of technical and material approaches to photography. ‘It’s a kind of deeper understanding of how people use photography to connect within their communities and across nation-states,’ says Marcoci.

Rather than organize the exhibition along geographic lines, the curators installed a series of cross-cultural dialogues, where individual practices converged and diverged along themes of identity and kinship; biological and chosen families; the importance of ritual; the preservation of knowledge; and notions of care. Personal memories merge with collective ones, as artists use photography to connect their lived experiences with larger historical events.

Since its inaugural 1985 exhibition, the ‘New Photography’ series has embraced a relatively quick pace of curation, allowing each show to respond to urgent real-world events in real time. An obvious subject for this latest exhibition might have been the role of digital technologies in our image-saturated world. ‘We are all connected, obviously, through our iPhones and social platforms,’ says Marcoci, ‘but we decided not to focus on this kind of instant connectivity.’ (In fact, the 30th anniversary show, ‘Ocean of Images’already covered ‘connectivity, the circulation of images, information networks, and communication models.’)

For ‘Lines of Belonging’, the curators turned away from the increasingly isolating digital world and focused on modes of connection predating the Internet, looking to communities that formed face-to-face in physical, sometimes private, spaces, and endured despite long histories of injustice.

Lake Verea

The exhibition opens with life-sized images of Mexico City’s Palacio de Bellas Artes, shot by Lake Verea – the Queer conceptual artist duo Carla Verea Hernández and Francisca Rivero-Lake. Their architectural photography examines themes of cultural and political heritage as it appears in the built environment, zooming in on the surface details. Taken from their 2019 ‘Uno a Uno’ series, images of Art Deco flourishes, for example, present an amalgamation of both pre-Columbian and colonial European histories, both of which continue to shape Mexican national identity, art, and politics today.

Lebohang Kganye

Lebohang Kganye is a Johannesburg artist similarly interested in exploring her national history through photographs. Rather than shoot images, she mines personal and public archives, merging historical black-and-white photographs with whimsical elements of theater and children’s storybooks. Marcoci describes the artist’s kinetic installations as ‘photographic stage sets’ in which cutout figures representing pre- and post-apartheid South Africa cast layered shadows on the wall. ‘Her storytelling points to the fabricated nature of history, and of photography for that matter.’

Sandra Blow

For both Sandra Blow and L. Kasimu Harris, nightlife functions as an essential refuge for the disempowered. Blow’s stylized portraits of Queer youth in Mexico City focus on fashion as an expression of creativity and self-possession.

L. Kasimu Harris

In New Orleans, Harris captures the subjects of his ‘Vanishing Black Bars & Lounges’ more candidly, documenting the distinct textures and aesthetics of the city’s Black-owned establishments as gentrification poses the constant threat of extinction.

Sabelo Mlangeni

Marcoci points to Johannesburg-based Sabelo Mlangeni as one of a number of artists on view who ‘embrace and explore the idea of love as a political unifier.’ Mlangeni’s black-and-white images of Queer marriage and friendships in South Africa capture the solidarity of their respective communities in states of celebration, self-expression, and joy.

Central American Modernism / Modernismo en Centroamérica

Central American Modernism / Modernismo en Centroamérica
by Mark Ford & Suzanne Snider

Introducing an Important

New Book on Modern Art

Central American art is Latin American art. And as this book demonstrates, it is Latin American art at its greatest – worldly and sophisticated and yet also profoundly native.

Modern art in Central American art shares much with the best of the modern art of Mexican and South America. But as this book – Central American Modernism / Modernismo en Centroamérica – makes clear, it is has a quality that is in many cases distinctly identifiable as Central American art, And among the Central American masters, there are distinct qualities that make each of them uniquely valuable.

Central American Modernism / Modernismo en Centroamérica is a bi-lingual beau-livre. It not only tells the story of how Modernism came to each country, it demonstrates – with hundreds of photographs – the magnitude of the talent that Central America contributed to Modernism.

It took 8 years for Mark Morgan Ford and Suzanne Brooks Snider to produce this comprehensive introduction to Central American art – researching and interviewing historians, museum directors, artists and their families, collectors, and gallery owners, and then photographing works, many that have never before been seen by the public.

Alejandro Aróstegui  ( b.1935 Nicaragua )Alejandro Aróstegui’s work is pensive and still. His landscapes (lakeshores, deserts, distant volcanoes) and cityscapes are haunting. His still lifes (simplified objects on tables) are, at the same time, disquieting and serene. Recycling the distinctive gleam of the aluminum can, Aróstegui’s paintings offer the viewer shimmering cities and rivers, solemn figures and grave forms. His best work is both compelling and distinctive. He is one of Nicaragua’s most important modern painters.Aróstegui spent years abroad (from 1954 to 1962), studying art. He studied at Tulane University, the Ringling School of Art in Sarasota, Florida, the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence and the École de Beaux Arts in Paris.The year Aróstegui returns to Nicaragua is 1963. While Beatlemania rages in Europe, Russia sends the first female cosmonaut into space and the touch-tone phone is introduced in the USA, a group forms in Nicaragua that makes a loud noise in Central American art.  Artists, poets and intellectuals join forces to establish a meeting place where they can exchange ideas of social change without fear. They call themselves “Praxis” (practice, as distinguished from theory), and on August 23, 1963 they open their headquarters as the Galería Praxis in Managua.

Aróstegui of Nicaragua and the writer Amaru Barahona of Costa Rica met in Europe. They were concerned about the political and social issues of their countries. When they return home they reach out to artist César Izquierdo of Guatemala. Barahona writes the manifesto. The group functions as a democracy and seeks the intersection of culture, all of the arts and teaching. Revolutionary poetry, ancient petroglyphs and the natural beauty of their countries, as well as the political and economic realities inspire it. Their motto: action, dynamism and a permanent state of restlessness.

As naïve as it may sound, the “groupo Praxis” artists felt art is not just for the elite… and it must not be compromised by the end result, the audience, or the money to be made from it. Honesty in art is more important than beauty.

Charles Gleyre (1806-1874)

Movimiento Impresionista

El legado de Charles Gleyre es complejo, y su figura es una pieza clave en la narrativa del Impresionismo, aunque no como un practicante del movimiento, sino como una figura de autoridad que los jóvenes artistas desafiaron. Gleyre fue un pintor académico respetado y un maestro influyente en París, cuyo taller sirvió como punto de encuentro crucial para varios de los futuros impresionistas.

Su contribución más importante al arte, paradójicamente, no fue a través de sus propias obras, sino a través de los alumnos que formó. Su taller, una institución formal y rigurosa, fue donde artistas como Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley y Frédéric Bazille se conocieron. Aunque Gleyre les enseñó los cánones del arte neoclásico y romántico —como el dibujo preciso y la idealización de la figura humana—, su estilo estricto y su visión conservadora actuaron como un catalizador para la rebelión.

Los jóvenes artistas, que no se sentían representados por su enseñanza, encontraron en su taller un espacio común para forjar una amistad y compartir ideas que iban en contra de lo que su maestro les inculcaba. Sus críticas a las pinceladas sueltas y al interés por la luz natural de los jóvenes, aunque duras, los unieron en una causa común.

El legado de Gleyre es un recordatorio de que a veces, la resistencia y la oposición pueden ser tan formativas como la propia guía. Su estilo representaba el “viejo mundo” del arte, un mundo que los impresionistas se propusieron desmantelar. Por ello, Gleyre es una figura fundamental en la historia, no por lo que pintó, sino por el hecho de que su taller fue el lugar exacto donde se sembraron las semillas de la revolución que lo superaría.

Orphism: The Forgotten Symphony of Color in Modern Art

Orphism: The Forgotten Symphony of Color in Modern Art

When people think of Modern Art, names like Cubism, Surrealism, and Abstract Expressionism usually dominate the conversation. Yet, hidden in the folds of 20th-century art history are lesser-known movements that deeply shaped the evolution of creativity and abstraction. Orphism is one such movement—short-lived, yet luminous.

What Is Orphism?

Orphism was a vibrant and experimental art movement that emerged in France around 1912, closely tied to—but distinctly different from—Cubism. While Cubism dissected the world into geometric fragments and multiple perspectives, Orphism brought color, rhythm, and light to the forefront.

The term “Orphism” was coined by French poet Guillaume Apollinaire, who drew inspiration from Orpheus, the legendary Greek poet and musician. For Apollinaire, just as music could express emotion without words, painting too should strive to create a visual harmony akin to music.

Key Characteristics of Orphism

Unlike the muted palettes and structural focus of Cubism, Orphism embraced:

  • Color as the primary mode of expression
    Instead of using color to describe form, Orphists explored how colors could create emotion, rhythm, and movement on their own.
  • Visual rhythm and musical analogy
    Paintings were conceived as visual symphonies, aiming to evoke the same sensations that music might—without any figurative content.
  • Circular forms and interlocking patterns
    These recurring motifs introduced a sense of fluidity, dynamism, and continuous motion. Many compositions feel as if they are vibrating with energy.
  • A move toward pure abstraction
    Orphism played a pivotal role in moving European painting further away from realism, helping pave the way for later abstract art.

Who Were the Orphists?

The two central figures in the Orphist movement were:

Robert Delaunay

Known for his dynamic use of color and light, Robert developed what he called “Simultaneism”—a theory of simultaneous color contrasts inspired by the science of vision and perception. His “Windows” and “Disks” series are iconic examples of Orphist abstraction.

Sonia Delaunay

A groundbreaking artist in her own right, Sonia applied Orphist principles not just to painting, but also to fashion, textiles, book design, and theater. Her work expanded the movement into a broader cultural sphere, making abstraction part of everyday life.

Why Didn’t Orphism Last?

Despite its visionary approach, Orphism remained in the shadows of more dominant movements. Its lifespan was brief, with the outbreak of World War I halting its momentum. Many of its practitioners moved on to other styles or artistic directions, and it never developed a broad school of followers like Cubism or Surrealism.

Orphism’s Legacy

Even though Orphism faded quickly, its influence reverberated through the history of abstraction:

  • It highlighted the emotive and symbolic power of color.
  • It helped set the stage for later movements such as Color Field Painting and Op Art.
  • It challenged artists to think beyond form and subject, embracing sensation and perception as valid artistic goals.

Orphism may not have achieved widespread fame, but it remains a key chapter in the story of modern art—a reminder that color can sing, and paintings can dance.

Final Thoughts

Orphism was a bold attempt to make color the soul of art, to create visual compositions as emotionally powerful and rhythmically rich as music. Though often overlooked, this movement challenged the norms of its time and opened new possibilities for abstraction.

So next time you see an explosion of color, rhythm, or circular motion in modern or contemporary art, remember the Orphists—those vibrant visionaries who once tried to make painting hum like a melody.

The Beauty of Shadow in Art: More Than Just Darkness

What is Shadow? Why It Matters in Art, Design, and Photography

In art, shadow is not simply the absence of light—it’s a powerful storytelling tool, a sculptor of form, and a carrier of emotion. From classical paintings to contemporary installations, shadows are used to add depth, contrast, mystery, and even meaning.

What Is a Shadow in Art?

A shadow is the dark area created when an object blocks a light source. In artistic terms, it’s used to:

  • Indicate light direction
  • Suggest volume and dimension
  • Create mood or atmosphere
  • Symbolize the unknown, the subconscious, or hidden truths

There are two main types:

  • Cast shadow – the shadow that an object throws onto another surface.
  • Form shadow – the darker side of the object itself, away from the light.

Why Shadows Matter in Art

1. They Create Realism

Without shadows, forms appear flat. Artists like Caravaggio and Rembrandt mastered the use of chiaroscuro—the dramatic contrast between light and dark—to give volume and lifelike intensity to their figures.

2. They Add Drama and Emotion

Shadows can suggest solitude, tension, or intimacy. In photography and film, high-contrast shadows often evoke mystery or suspense.

3. They Symbolize the Inner World

In symbolic terms, shadows can represent:

  • The unseen aspects of the self
  • Fear, doubt, or repression
  • The passage of time (as in sundials)
  • The ephemeral or fleeting

Carl Jung even spoke of the “shadow self” in psychology—art has often been a mirror of that idea.

4. They Inspire Imagination

Some contemporary artists use shadow as a medium itself—projecting light through sculpted forms to cast images onto walls or using silhouettes to tell entire stories without drawing a line.

Shadow Across Mediums

  • Painting: Renaissance and Baroque artists used shadow to achieve realism.
  • Drawing: Charcoal and graphite are perfect for creating soft, layered shadows.
  • Photography: Shadows help frame subjects and add intrigue.
  • Sculpture: The placement of light creates dynamic shadow play, making the piece evolve throughout the day.
  • Installation: Artists like Kumi Yamashita or Tim Noble and Sue Webster create entire images using only shadows cast by abstract forms.

The Poetic Side of Shadow

Shadows are ephemeral. They shift with the light, change with the time of day, and disappear altogether in darkness. That impermanence gives them a poetic beauty—they hint at what is, but also what isn’t.

“Where there is much light, the shadow is deep.”
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Final Thought

The beauty of shadow in art lies in its subtlety. It doesn’t shout—it whispers, drawing us in, shaping what we see, and reminding us that light is only half the story.

To embrace shadows is to embrace contrast, complexity, and the nuance of being human.

What is Negative Space? Why It Matters in Art, Design, and Photography

Negative space—also known as white space—is the area around and between the subjects of an image. It’s the “empty” space that surrounds the main focus (the positive space) and helps define the boundaries of the subject.

Despite its name, negative space is not wasted or meaningless. On the contrary, it’s a powerful visual tool used in art, design, and photography to bring balance, clarity, and emphasis to a composition.

What is Negative Space?

Imagine drawing a chair: the chair itself is the positive space. But the blank space around the chair—the area between the legs, under the seat, above the backrest—is the negative space.

This empty space:

  • Frames the subject
  • Gives the viewer’s eye room to rest
  • Enhances focus on the main elements

In some artworks or designs, the negative space even forms its own shapes, playing an active visual role.

In Art

In painting and drawing, artists use negative space to:

  • Create balance and proportion
  • Emphasize the subject
  • Suggest form and structure without heavy detail

Notable example: M.C. Escher’s tessellations, where negative and positive space shift depending on how you look.

In Design

In graphic design, negative space:

  • Prevents overcrowding
  • Increases readability
  • Guides the viewer’s attention

Some of the most iconic logos (like FedEx, where there’s a hidden arrow in the negative space) use this technique to cleverly communicate meaning.

In Photography

Photographers use negative space to:

  • Isolate the subject
  • Create mood or emotion (e.g., minimalism, solitude, serenity)
  • Highlight the subject through contrast

A single bird in a vast empty sky or a person standing in a wide-open desert—these images use negative space for dramatic effect.

Why It Matters

  1. Clarity: Negative space helps avoid visual clutter.
  2. Focus: It draws the viewer’s attention to what really matters.
  3. Balance: It creates harmony between elements.
  4. Emotion: It can evoke calm, isolation, or vastness depending on how it’s used.

Final Thought

Negative space isn’t just the absence of content—it’s a design choice. Whether you’re painting, designing a logo, or taking a photo, mastering the use of negative space can elevate your work from average to exceptional.
