Out now: Foam Magazine #28 / Talent
Press release | Amsterdam, September 2011
Presented by Foam Magazine
A bit late, but the new issue #28 / Talent is released, last
Thursday September 15.
In this fifth annual Talent issue of Foam Magazine,
we highlight work from fifteen young talents in a diverse range of
photographic work. The shortlist was selected from over 800
portfolio submissions to this year's Talent Call by
Foam Magazine. And for this first time in five years there is an
extensive exhibition in Amsterdam presenting this exceptional and
yet undiscovered work.
The fifteen portfolios in Foam Magazine Issue #28 /
Talent span across analogue, black and white,
self-development, digital alteration and experimentation that
question and confirm the limitations of the photographic medium all
at once. They point to developments, trends and themes that are of
particular importance to a new generation of artists and,
importantly, our annual talent call allows our readers and editors
to gain an accurate impression of the activities of young
photographers worldwide.
The selected photographers
are:
Ina Jang (South Korea), Mirko Martin (Germany), Raphaël Dallaporta
(France), Katrien Vermeire (Belgium), Fleur van Dodewaard (The
Netherlands), Ester Vonplon (Switzerland), Renato Abreu (Brazil),
Lucas Blalock (USA), Florian van Roekel (The Netherlands), Gosha
Rubchinskiy (Russia), Mayumi Hosokura (Japan), Jessica Eaton
(Canada), Alessandro Imbriaco (Italy), Ivor Prickett (Ireland) and
Alberto Salván Zulueta (Spain).
Exhibition Talent
New this year is an extensive exhibition associated with the
Talent issue in Foam's new location at the
Vijzelstraat 78 in Amsterdam from 14th of October to
31st of December. The diverse work of the fifteen
artists is given the space to surprise visitors using the unique
layout of this former office building.
An update on this will follow soon.
