Exhibition ‘Curved Lines’ -  Emin Özmen, Alessandra Sanguinetti, and Gregory Halpern

Shanghai, X Space 4.20 - 5.31 2023

Beijing 09 Jun 2023 - 18 Jun 2023

The exhibition unites the creative endeavors of three esteemed photographers from Magnum Photos: Emin Özmen, Alessandra Sanguinetti, and Gregory Halpern. The journey from one point on the map to another is not a straightforward path but rather a meandering and curved trajectory. It entails encountering winding roads, reaching dead ends with no apparent way forward, and navigating unexpected bumps along the way. It is through such unconventional routes that new artistic creations come to life. Moreover, in nature, curved lines are far more prevalent than straight ones. They can be observed in the graceful curvature of a bird’s wing, the contours of the human body, or the undulating curve formed by ocean waves. These curved lines serve as both a visual and metaphorical element, encapsulating the essence that unites the works of these three photographers, despite their distinct styles and approaches.
