Interview | Hélène Binet: Dialoghi，Works from 1988 to 2018

Описание: In April, PSA presents French-Swiss photographer Hélène Binet’s first solo institutional exhibition in China. The exhibition brings together several iconic career highlights and offers a comprehensive overview of Binet’s 30-year professional career, as well as featuring her new Suzhou Gardens series commissioned for this exhibition, presenting over one hundred works in total.

Back in 1987 when first photographing John Hejduk’s Housing Project in Berlin, Binet almost immediately fostered an individual style that continues to define her works even today – cool, sharply composed, and highly simulative to viewers’ imagination towards space. She once said: “As photographers, our first gesture is to exclude.”Her photographs rarely present a neutral panoramic perspective on the built environment, but rather an expressive portrait that takes advantage of non-typical compositions to focus on skeletons of architecture and bring out general architectural concepts with structural and textural nuances, evocative of the abstract photographic style made famous by names including Lucien Hervé, RenéBurri and Judith Turner.

Marking a new direction of PSA’s “Architecture & City” exhibition and research program, Dialoghi (Dialogue) will open up a new standpoint for viewers to approach architecture through the abstract emotion of photography.
