Nadav Kander: The Edge of Things featured in Aesthetica
Portrait(s) Vichy is featured in Aesthetica, highlighting Nadav Kander's survey exhibition:
"All eyes will be on British lens-based artist Nadav Kander, who opens the festival with a dazzling retrospective of his most films, iconic series, unpublished photographs and an installation. The London-based practitioner is famous for his portraits of major global figures, such as Barack Obama, Gillian Anderson, Usain Bolt, Rosamund Pike and Tracy Emin. Amongst the recognisable names in Solitary Portraits, are also a number of lesser-known individuals. In Teenagers, Near Lake Sugi, Mozambique (2003), the unnamed subjects try to hold in their laughs whilst one gives a cheeky at the the camera. In Vichy, visitors will get to experience the breadth of Kander's multidisciplinary artist. Many of the pieces on display are never-before, highlighting the image-maker's poetic sensitivity to emotions, expressions and subtle beauty."
