Dubai Photographs

In early January, I spent some time in Dubai, photographing new work - especially Cityscapes. The series shows world-renowned buildings and projects, such as The Palm Islands and The World Islands, the Burj al Arab hotel; the Sheikh Zayed Road with it's lined-up skyscrapers, and the Burj Dubai, the world's highest building. A big thanks to Elie, director of a newly-opened gallery in Dubai, for arranging me several things there! Elie's gallery, The Empty Quarter Gallery, will show my work in a solo-exhibition later this year. The exhibit will also include some of the new Dubai stuff. The gallery is located in a really nice location within the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) complex. Click HERE to view the Dubai work!

New UK Representative

I'm very pleased to announce my new UK representative. The Michael Hoppen Gallery is considered to be the leading photography art gallery in the United Kingdom, and also among the best photography galleries worldwide. The gallery occupies an incredible three-story building in the heart of the wealthy London-neighbourhood of Chelsea, near the famous Victoria & Albert Museum. Their represented artists include Nobuyoshi Araki, Abelardo Morell, Daido Moriyama, Sarah Moon, Simon Norfolk, Matthew Pillsbury, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Ron van Dongen, and many more. My name is now included in their prominent artist list, and I'm very proud of it. All inquiries regarding my work in the United Kingdom may now be sent to directly to the gallery.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

I would like to wish you all Merry Christmas, and a superb 2009. Very best, Josef
