GALLERY PHOTOGRAPHERS
Maria das Dores Crespo Castanho Ribeiro, is from Lisbon (1948) where she lives. Graduated in Economics (ISEG), she did her Masters in Communication, Culture and Information Technologies (ISCTE).
She started in photography in the 1970s, being represented in the catalog of the exhibition “Fotografia Portuguesa 1970-1980“ shown in several countries. He participated in the project “Elétricos”, part of a group of photographers whose works are on deposit at the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation. He was part of a collective that photographed the rehearsals of the play "Nobody" staged by Ricardo Pais.Having interrupted his path in photography in 1980, he returned in 2018 when he started to collaborate with the ACMP Gallery ESPAÇOdARTES.
In May 2020 together with Fernando Gonçaves they created the Incubator Photo Gallery.

With Maria Ribeiro created the Incubator Photo Gallery.
Taking as a starting point vacant buildings from old factories, the author experiences these scenarios where he introduces figures who embody the role of actors, gaining the images a surreal aura with his presence. It is this latent surrealism that the author seeks, in a staging where the black aesthetic and the dreamlike atmosphere of abandoned places converge beyond the threshold of reality. The photos were taken between 2016 and 2020.
Eduardo is a photographer and film director and has worked in the audio visual field since 1998. He has a Masters in Cinema with a specialization in Movie Directing from “Escola Superior de Teatro e Cinema” in Lisbon.
Eduardo is a certificated trainer and uses multimedia (cinema, photography, video, animation and sound) to work with children and teenagers to develop their creative skills.
In cinema he focuses on fictional and documentary filmmaking. He also participates in European Projects as a trainer and film director. As a photographer, Eduardo works for Food and Travel Portugal, and covered several music and photography events.
Eduardo has already directed 6 short author films, the last one “A Lost Film”, 11’, 2014.
According to modern standards of active successful growth passion for photography came to me pretty late in life. I have reached the acme (anc.-greek ακμή) age of 40, and my vision of the world has completed its formation from both, the aesthetic and visual, as well as spiritual and moral standpoints. That’s why everything that can be seen in my works is not a search of an artistic path or of a creative expression, but a pursuit to fill the frame withself-contained semantic load using visual methods available to my artistic education.

MAT BONNER
Between 2010 and 2013 I periodically lived in Ghana building a school in a remote village, it was here where my thoughts on humanity were changed for life.
Within the simplest of lives, cut off from the modern world I met the most beautiful of people and a charm unique to any imagination and tried to capture this with my images.
I especially like to work in black and white photography, as not only does it create beautiful images, it brings us a deeper look into texture, highlights contours and contrasts.
It brings shadows to life in a dramatic and pure way. We unconsciously allow people to reflect in a moment they normally wouldn’t.
They challenge perception, they capture elegance, they capture soul.
Mat Bonner: Born Cornwall UK 1979, a Poet and passionate street photographer. He has a great love for candid, landscapes and architectural photography. Capturing beauty in the likely and unlikely places.

2021 ZEKE Award for Documentary Photography
SDN is excited to announce a Call for Entries for the 2021 ZEKE Award for Documentary Photography. This award will recognize the work of two photographers as first-place winners and four photographers as honorable mentions. We are seeking submissions of documentary projects from a global community of photographers — projects that have the highest visual and storytelling components while exploring important global issues that affect us all. Entries will be evaluated by a panel of expert jurors (see below for bios).
The Guardian Angels
Strange state of being a museum keeper: to be exhibited without being looked at, let alone recognized. Constitutively out of scope, out of topic. Confronted with this almost ontological non-existence, barely disturbed by a few questions from visitors or calls to order, everyone is doing as best they can. Some remain fixed on their chair: with their gaze fixed, they seem elsewhere, as in Zen meditation. Others move slowly and absent-mindedly around the room, literally idle, under the watchful eye of the masters. Do their thoughts, their dreams feed on the works in their care? Nothing is less sure. Rather, I believe that they have mastered the art of passing the time without focusing on an object but passing from one to another, lightly, in a floating way. Denying the misfortune according to Pascal, these artists of nothing, know “to remain in rest”. It is this singular profession – I was going to say performance – that my images seek to capture. Silent, transparent and protective, museum guardians are also angels.
The Glamorous World of LA’s Vanished Queer Underground
If the photographer Reynaldo Rivera didn’t exist, a Hollywood more interested in queer and Latinx people might have invented him. As detailed in Reynaldo Rivera: Provisional Notes for a Disappeared City (2020), Semiotext(e)’s marvelous new monograph, Rivera sidestepped tragedy through talent and will. He made transformational photographs of subjects transforming themselves, many now dead in places now shuttered or, worse, disappeared. What separates Rivera’s work from that of his peers—the loving slums of Nan Goldin, the horny social-butterfly lepidopterarium of Christopher Makos, Alvin Baltrop’s formal observations, the personality crises of Peter Hujar—might be a rejection, or perhaps disinterest, in distance. Rivera’s photographs of trans women and drag artists, of artists and scenesters and lovers and friends, in and out of LA’s legendary Latino bars and party houses, thrill with presence without flaunting their access. “If people are busy living out myths you don’t like,” Samuel R. Delany writes in his wild epic novel Dhalgren (1974), “leave them to it.” Rivera’s subjects were busy. They were living. He clearly loved them. He made real myths with them.

A Painter Reconsiders the Photographs of Luigi Ghirri
Before Luigi Ghirri turned to photography, he worked as a land surveyor, an occupation that fostered a way of seeing. Typically taken from a frontal vantage point, his photographs describe the surfaces of what’s before the camera with what at first feels like directness, but upon closer inspection is more akin to a visual puzzle. (He once described his work as a “fresco for our time.”) And with their layers of visual detritus, found image fragments of advertisements and signage, his images speak to their moment while sometimes feeling anachronistic.
ICU nurse photographs frontline workers at hospital during COVID-19 pandemic
When we saw this virus coming, it was like waiting for a wave to crash ashore. We were given the extraordinary task of keeping people alive from an unknown illness. When the rest of the world shut down, we continued to face our fears every time we walked through our hospital doors.

Photographer Torbjørn Rødland Wants to Keep Austin Weird
Torbjørn Rødland is cheating on Los Angeles—with Austin. The Norwegian artist and photographer is known for his subversively glamorous photographs that have emerged from a long-term affair with the City of Angels. Lately, however, his eyes are set on another sun-washed, excess-loving land of Americana. Rødland is in Austin for a new solo exhibition at The Contemporary Austin, titled Bible Eye, featuring works made between 2005 and the present.
