About the Item

French photographic artist, Jean Philippe Kadzinski currently resides in New York, where he produces rhythmic depictions of the opportune city. Born in a small village in Lorraine, the artist spent his youth in a dissimilar landscape. Categorized by verdant farmland and industrial manufacturing, the nature-rich town nurtured an exploratory boyhood spent roaming forests and hills. At fourteen, shortly before receiving his mechanical diploma, he began an apprenticeship at a pipe factory. However, for Kadzinski, industrious labors lacked the creative, self-actualizing stimulation he necessitated. By the age of 29, this passionate sentiment drove a fulfilment-seeking venture to Paris, where he found himself in pursuit of modeling and advertisement. Prior to the commencement of his personal photographic endeavors, Kadzinksi meticulously compounded traits of his pending artistry. While in front of camera, he gained insights into composing images through his own intuitive movements and lighting direction. From this proficiency bloomed an immersed familiarity with subject matter and its role. As he now sculpts visuals from an external standpoint, the experience has gifted a perceptively dualistic quality in his relationship to the camera. Such union of skills and understandings heavily influence Jean Philippe Kadzinski’s aesthetic, which delivers vibrantly active representations of his explored realities. Conceptually, this is evident when a childhood Introspective appreciation of nature intersects with the interactions in a newfound bustling world outside of himself. The metropolitan environment encourages reflection also on our relatively minuscule, yet substantial place in society, a viewpoint magnified when he granted his own childhood dream of moving to New York City.

"Chief" American Indian Photographed in Wyoming Devil's Tower
By David Yarrow
Located in Greenwich, CT
"Chief" Wyoming, USA 2020 Large: 71" x 96” Edition of 12 Standard: 52" x 69" Edition of 12 This work is sourced directly from the artist. Framed Digital Pigment Print on Archival 315gsm Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Baryta Paper Hand-signed by artist with Certificate of Authenticity Over the last few weeks we have quietly been photographing senior Native Americans against the backdrop of quintessential and emblematic American vistas.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Whilst we will be releasing some of the series in the run up to the Presidential Election, this is not an overtly political statement from us. We know that Native Americans have long had a leaning toward the Democratic Party, but we took this assignment on because it is relevant, not to be political.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ There is wide recognition now that Christopher Columbus did not discover America in 1492 and the events in Minneapolis have accelerated the debate on the possibility of institutionalised racism in the teaching of American history. This is not a discussion we want to fully engage in - as we are ill equipped to add value, but I do want to celebrate some of the tribal elders I have had the fortune to encounter in the last month. Their pride, manners, grace and humility have been humbling. We have made new friends in the North.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ For this project we worked with Chief John Spotted Tail, the great-great-grandson of the fabled Lakota chief Spotted Tail. We spent two days with him in Northern Wyoming and he was so excited to wear the headpiece that only the most senior Native American chiefs like him can wear. His attire was emphatically his decision not ours. Their heritage is integral to their souls.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The ground in front of Devils Tower...

Living Without Boarders Black and White Cowboy on Horse Photo taken in Mexico
By David Yarrow
Located in Greenwich, CT
Framed Digital Pigment Print on Archival 315gsm Hahnemuhle Photo Rag Baryta Paper Mexico / USA, 2020 I took this photograph of the legendary West Texas cowboy - Ty Mitchell - on a sandbank on the Rio Grande. Ty stands 6ft 5” tall and my general assessment is that not much fazes this guy. Meanwhile, the location is about as good as it gets and is rather wonderfully named Contraband Creek. I was standing in Mexico and 20 yards across the river was the US. Every time I walked knee deep across the river to change a lens or camera, I entered America and then on my return I re-entered Mexico. I think I actually entered America four times in a morning - all rather surreal with this talk of a wall. I would like to thank the US Border Patrol...
