We are thrilled to learn that Paul Graham (b. 1956, UK), has been awarded the 2009 Deutsche Börse Photography Prize for his publication, a shimmer of possibility (steidlMACK, October 2007). We were lucky enough to see the exhibition in person yesterday at the The Photographer’s Gallery, London.

Check out these ultra graphic 1970’s nudes.

Just enough rocker chick chic by Martine Sitbon to raise the adore level.

Whether his subjects are portraits, desolate landscapes or inner city streets, d’Agata’s twilight world captures the intense and intimate nature of his chance encounters with people and places. Likening the compulsion to photograph to that of proving one’s own existence, d’Agata distances himself from straightforward documentary photography.

Margaret Kilgallen’s work reflects her encyclopedic knowledge of signs drawn from American folk tradition, printmaking, and letterpress. Kilgallen has a love of “things that show the evidence of the human hand.” Painting directly on the wall, Kilgallen creates room-size murals that recall a time when personal craft and handmade signs were the dominant aesthetic.
