Sundaram Tagore Gallery
New York, NY

As Sundaram Tagore celebrates their 25th anniversary, the gallery is pleased to present a wide-ranging exhibition of paintings, sculptures, photographs and installations. The show includes work by more than thirty artists—from those who have been with the gallery since its founding in 2000 to those we have partnered with more recently.

Paul Kyle Gallery
Vancouver, British Columbia

We are pleased to welcome Marion Landry, whose geometric abstract paintings, grounded in a deep engagement with light, perception, and phenomenology, offer meditative glimpses into atmosphere and stillness; James W. Chiang, a BC artist whose paintings merge chromatic purity and precision with an intense dialogue between passion and perception, creating what he describes as a “kinetic exchange” in which beauty and existence are unbounded by thought or time; Jan Hoy, whose elegant abstract sculptures in  bronze and steel explore balance and spatial clarity; Ronald T. Crawford, a Salt Spring Island painter and sculptor whose practice unites contemporary painting with the physical poetics of stone, and whose influence reaches beyond his studio through the founding of the Salt Spring National Art Prize; and lastly, Edward Burtynsky, one of Canada’s most celebrated contemporary artists, whose monumental photographs confront the scale and complexity of our industrialised world, rendering beauty and devastation with equal and uncompromising clarity.

Huis Marseille
Museum for Photography
Amsterdam, NL

In 2025 Huis Marseille, Museum for Photography will be 25 years old. To celebrate this, from 28 June till 12 October 2025 the museum will hold the exhibition Memento. Photography, interrupted, in both of its 17th-century buildings on the Keizersgracht in Amsterdam.

Displaying the works in both an unconventional and monumental way, Huis Marseille is presenting over a hundred contemporary photographic highlights from its rich collection, offering insight into a quarter-century of collection policy. The exhibition shows that the collection has not only closely reflected developments in photography and visual culture, but also developments in society itself, particularly over the last five years.

Art Gallery of Hamilton
Hamilton, ON

Taking Root brings to light some of the AGH’s newest additions to our permanent collection, showcasing a diverse range of artists, media, and perspectives. From contemporary voices to historical anchors, these works offer a window into the conversations and curiosities guiding our collections today.

Art Gallery of Alberta
Edmonton, AB

Catastrophic forest fires and wildfires are becoming increasingly common. Smoke from Alberta fires routinely blots out the sun for much of the province and at times across the entire continent. Alberta communities are routinely evacuated from their homes and, tragically, some never return. The human relationship to fire has formed over hundreds of thousands of years and is continually evolving. This exhibition draws from the Art Gallery of Alberta’s permanent collection and shows how the human relationship to fire is nuanced and multifaceted. Fire creates, welcomes, beckons, warms and nourishes. It also destroys, harms, burns and decimates. It has the power to transform, transmute, alter states of matter and communicate. From the mundane to the profound to the catastrophic, fire has changed us, and we have changed fire. 

Winnipeg Art Gallery-Qaumajuq
The Pavilion at Assiniboine Park Conservancy (APC)
Winnipeg, MB

Kunsthalle Munchen

Never have more people lived on Earth, never has our impact on the planet been greater, never have we been more closely interconnected than today—moreover, our society is changing at an ever-increasing pace. Civilization: The Way We Live Now follows humanity’s visible traces around the globe from the perspective of more than 100 internationally renowned photographers. The exhibition sheds light on various aspects of our highly complex coexistence—from humankind’s great achievements to our collective failings.

Tom Thompson Art Gallery
Owen Sound, Ontario

Safekeeping is a community-centered exhibition that highlights the role of stewardship and conservation in art collection practices and environmental protection. Through a series of workshops, children and youth from Hillcrest Elementary School and the Youth Climate Action Group have responded to works from the Gallery’s Collection by writing open letters or creating drawings that reflect their emotional connections to the art, particularly in relation to environmental themes. Their perspectives are displayed alongside the works, replacing the traditional labels typically used by the Gallery.

The exhibition aims to amplify the voices of children and youth on pressing environmental issues, emphasizing the collective responsibility we share in safeguarding the planet for future generations. 

European Month of Photography Berlin
LOOP – Raum für Aktuelle Kunst

Charlotte Bastian, Edward Burtynsky, Betty Böhm, Rosalind Lowry, Thomas Wrede

The exhibition Strained Terrain sheds light on artistic explorations of nature and its profound human-caused changes. On view are works by artists who depict and reflect upon the effects of the Anthropocene on the landscape and climate in different ways. Thomas Wrede has been photographing melting glaciers since 2018. The fleece coverings intended to stop the melting symbolize the superficial and helpless interventions of humans. Land artist Rosalind Lowry reacts to a place and time with site-specific interventions. In fascinating images, Edward Burtynsky documents the grave marks that industry makes on the earth worldwide. Taking a transdisciplinary approach to photography, film/video, and installation, Betty Böhm’s work interweaves documentary and research-based elements with levels of subjectivity and poetic association. Charlotte Bastian assembles new landscapes from photographs of different places and times in collages and spatial images that can be experienced in three dimensions.

Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University
Stanford, CA

Just over 20 years ago, scientists introduced the term Anthropocene to denote a new geological epoch marked by human activity. Comprised of 44 photo-based artists working in a variety of artistic methods from studios and sites across the globe, Second Nature: Photography in the Age of the Anthropocene explores the complexities of this proposed new age: vanishing ice, rising waters, and increasing resource extraction, as well as the deeply rooted and painful legacies of colonialism, forced climate migration, and socio-environmental trauma.

Midlands Art Centre
Birmingham, UK

Waste Age: What can design do? is a group exhibition focused on a new generation of designers who are rethinking our relationship to everyday things. From fashion to food, electronics to construction, even packaging - finding the lost value in our trash and imagining a future of clean materials and a circular economy could point the way out of the Waste Age.

Nicholas Metivier Gallery
Toronto, ON

Conversations will focus on landscape, a subject at the core of both artists' decades-long practices. New releases by Burtynsky including photographs from Canada, the US, and Iceland, are placed in context with luminous new platinum-palladium prints by Salgado. Both artists have embraced new and old technologies with the goal of attaining the most remarkable surface detail and tonal range possible.

Galerie Springer Berlin

LOOKS LIKE ABSTRACTION explores the question of when a photograph is perceived as abstract. Was this the artist's intention from the outset? Isn't every photograph initially concrete, only to become something else, such as an abstract image, through the cropping of the picture? The tour of the exhibition answers some of these questions, but also leaves plenty of room for free flight of thought and emotion.

Design Museum Den Bosch
s-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands

The exhibition Design for the Planet presents a design history of the phenomenon of geoengineering. This is the first time that the theme has been addressed in this way in a design museum. From colonial plans to green the Sahara, via the fear of hurricanes as a weapon of war in the Cold War, to current plans to extract CO 2 from the air or to cool the earth with enormous sunshades in space. Such projects often prove to be impracticable or entail enormous risks, while their effectiveness is far from certain. Who has the right to put such plans into practice? Who bears the possible consequences? And what do these debates say about the expectations we have of engineers, scientists and designers?

Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University

Second Nature: Photography in the Age of the Anthropocene is the first major exhibition to examine the Anthropocene through the lens of contemporary photography. Comprised of forty-five photo-based artists working in a variety of artistic methods from studios and sites across the globe, Second Nature explores the complexities of this proposed new age. Collectively, these artists offer compelling visual imagery necessary for picturing the Anthropocene: aerial views of beautiful but toxic sites, collages that incorporate archival photographs to counter colonial narratives, depictions of urbanism on an unimaginable scale, and imagined yet precarious futures. In doing so, they address urgent issues such as vanishing ice, rising waters, and increasing resource extraction, as well as the deeply rooted and painful legacies of colonialism, forced climate migration, and socio-environmental trauma.

Sundaram Tagore Gallery
New York City

This annual summer group exhibition showcases new and historic paintings, photographs and sculptures by gallery artists inspired by the power and beauty of nature. In both abstract and literal ways, each artist uniquely expands beyond the limits of the empirical realm to transport viewers to an imagined reality.

This exhibition, featuring an ensemble of first-rate works in a new scenography of over 2,000 square meters, is an invitation to a journey through Joseph Mallord William Turner’s representations of the world in a sublime mode, from his landscapes to the elementary explorations of light and atmosphere of which he was a pioneer and master. 

Peel Art Gallery and Archives
Brampton, ON

The exhibition presents a diverse collection of mediums, styles and aesthetics – bringing to light fresh angles from which to approach the work, and raising surprising, often fascinating questions.

Modern & Contemporary Galleries
Utah Museum of Fine Arts
Salt Lake City, Utah

The history of photography in the United States is deeply tied to the American West. From 19th century survey expeditions to 21st century environmental movements, Western landscapes are activated as some of the most prominent subjects in American photographic history. This exhibition traces 150 years of Utah landscape photography from the UMFA's expansive collection. The artworks offer insight into how generations of photographers have used this technology to construct an image of Utah. They also confront humanity's impact on this land since the 1870s – the railroads, highways, mines, and other forms of infrastructure that puncture the "natural" landscape and shape our perception of this place.

Rijksmuseum Twenthe
Enschede, Netherlands

The exhibition 'Terra Libera' (the free land) uses old and contemporary works of art to show how (Western) people have appropriated and cultivated the land in recent centuries. Making the land useful and productive for the benefit of the people themselves plays a leading role, even today. But how did that come about and what worldview underlies this?

Saatchi Gallery
London, UK

This landmark exhibition tracks the visual threads of humanity’s ever-changing, extraordinarily complex life across the globe, through the eyes of 150 of the world’s most accomplished photographers. Featuring many previously unseen images, Civilization acknowledges the diverse material and spiritual cultures that make up global societies today, spanning Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa and the Americas. Exploring a wide range of subjects, from our great united achievements to our collective failings, Civilization: The Way We Live Now highlights the complexity and contradictions of contemporary civilization.

Museum Helmond
Helmond, The Netherlands

This exhibition shows a variety of works from the collection of Museum Helmond, supplemented with a few loans in which work clothing is central. The photo above is by Bas Losekoot, 'Sequence', whose work can be seen in the exhibition.

The exhibition is made possible in part by Driessen Groep and Lavans.
