About
Do You Remember the First Time?Contemporary Photography at ATLAS Gallery
ATLAS Gallery is pleased to announce DO YOU REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME?, an exhibition of contemporary photography, opening June 15 through July 28. There will be an opening reception on Thursday, June 14 from 6 to 8 pm
DO YOU REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME? features works by contemporary photographers OLIVO BARBIERI, JIM GOLDBERG, NATHAN HARGER, ADAM JEPPESEN, and PAOLO VENTURA, presented for the first time in London exclusively at ATLAS Gallery. Many of these exemplary contemporary artists have been exhibited internationally, and are included in museum and distinguished private collections worldwide, but have never before been exhibited in a commercial gallery in the United Kingdom. DO YOU REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME? presents the opportunity to experience with new eyes key works by known artists who are redefining the boundaries of contemporary photography.
OLIVO BARBIERI takes aerial photographs of cityscapes and landscapes, creating images that look like scale models. First exhibition at ATLAS Gallery.
NATHAN HARGER creates high contrast black and white photographs of man-made
structures and industrial landscapes. First exhibition at ATLAS Gallery.
ADAM JEPPESEN makes fine art out of assembled photocopies. First exhibition at ATLAS Gallery; first exhibition in the UK.
PAOLO VENTURA builds miniature sets for his doll-sized subjects to create imaginative
and whimsical narrative photographs. First exhibition at ATLAS Gallery; first exhibition in the UK.
JIM GOLDBERG produces in-depth documentary studies of neglected and disenfranchised peoples and populations. Jim Goldberg is represented by Magnum Photos and ATLAS Gallery.
ATLAS Gallery was established in 1994 with a specialist focus on classic and modern twentieth century vintage photography and photojournalism. DO YOU REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME? is the inaugural exhibition in a new gallery programme which will include, for the first time, a specific contemporary focus within the ATLAS Gallery calendar of exhibitions.
