LENI RIEFENSTAHL – OLYMPIA 1936

Posted on 2025-07-21

Olympia Through the Lens, is an exhibition featuring 25 original vintage exhibition quality prints by Leni Riefenstahl (1902-2003) from the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games. Known for her groundbreaking documentary two-part Olympia (released in 1938), Riefenstahl also produced a striking body of still photography during the Games. Her images captured athletes in motion and repose, employing innovative techniques that helped define modern sports photography.

This exhibition explores Riefenstahl’s visual legacy within the full historical and ethical context of the era. While her mastery of light, form, and composition is undisputed, her work remains controversial due to her ties to the Nazi regime and the propagandistic role her imagery played.

MERYL MEISLER – ON THE MONEY

Posted on 2025-07-21

Money talks, and in Meryl Meisler’s case, it wisecracks, reflects and reveals. In “On the Money”. Meisler’s work, dating from 1976 to 2025, many of which have never been seen before, takes us on a fast-paced ride through idioms, attitudes, and absurdities surrounding money. From “dirty money” to “funny money,” her images and wordplay dig beneath the clichés to ask: What are our relationships with money? And why is it still taboo to talk about it? This tongue-in-cheek mini-solo explores what we value, how we spend, and the price we pay – served with wit, wisdom, and a wink. Talking about money might be impolite, but Meisler is doing it anyway, and she’s making it funny, fabulous, and impossible to ignore.

LANDON NORDEMAN – LAST NIGHT

Posted on 2025-07-14

Shot over the course of a decade, LAST NIGHT offers an instinctive, flash-lit look at the rituals of contemporary social performance, from inside the rarefied swirl of exclusive parties. With a visual language that embraces bold color, theatrical framing, and surreal timing, Nordeman captures the strangeness, humor, and spectacle—where socialites and superstars gather to celebrate the most beautiful things in the world… themselves. Working up close and among his subjects, Nordeman uses his camera and flash to make unexpected photographs of subjects well-practiced in performance. The result can be both abstracting and humanizing. Drawn to the alluring interplay of fashion and flesh, shadow and color, Nordeman discovers honest moments hidden in a world of artifice.

Exhibition runs through to July 27th, 2025

ANNE LARSEN AND JOHN SEXTON – EMBRACING LIGHT

Posted on 2025-07-14

The Center for Photographic Art is pleased to present Embracing Light, a unique two-person exhibition featuring the work of renowned fine art photographers Anne Larsen and John Sexton. They have been sharing a life together along with their passion for photography and exploring the land with large and medium format film cameras, for over thirty years. Their mutual devotion to the beauty of the handcrafted silver gelatin print, created in the traditional darkroom, lies at the heart of their artistic expression.

Included in this exhibition, for the first time, will be a body of work they undertook over multiple photographic journeys exploring Venice, Italy. The exhibit will also include stunning images of the natural environment, as well as human-made subjects. For both photographers the use of light as it graces the subject, and its use throughout the photographic process, is essential. Though their palettes are different, both Anne’s and John’s prints share a common beauty and luminosity.
