St. Moritz and the en-
gadin host, from August
22 to August 31, exhibi-
tions of regional, national
and international artists,
focusing once again on
art and culture, espe-
cially from India.
The so-called ‘WAlK oF
ArT’ presents in the en-
gadin a wide range of in-
ternational contemporary
art exhibitions and projects,
in addition to this year‘s
focus on India. Works by fa-
mous artists will be on dis-
play, in a unique
international festival. ex-
cept for the traditional ven-
ues in St. Moritz, Samedan
and Zuoz, selected presti-
gious galleries are also inte-
grated in the ‘WAlK oF
ArT’, offering the visitor the
opportunity to admire the
works of national and inter-
national artists, as well as
works of this year's focus:
India.
The group exhibition ‘India:
Maximum city’ presents the
works of 10 artists, assuming a
dual role as practitioners and
urban citizens, facing the nu-
merous challenges of an in-
frastructure, which is about
to collapse, due to the lack
of proper urban planning
and gentrification. These
artists critically explore the so-
cial, political, architectural
and economic implications
of urbanization. The Indian
metropolis is seen as an ever
growing organism, which si-
multaneously serves as a rich
source of inspiration. The
works on display commonly
address the question if the
utopian dream of urban
modernity will ever be
deemed livable or if it will
end up in dystopia.
Three site-specific projects by
Shilpa Gupta, Subodh Gupta
and Nalini Malani, present
trans-cultural issues, ranging
from contemporizing West-
ern and eastern myths and
rituals to transgressing na-
tional borders and cultural
stereotypes.
A group exhibition is also
presented, from the Stellar In-
ternational Art Foundation -
the choudhrie family‘s pri-
vate collection- with works of
M. F. Husain, Paresh Maity
and Jayasri burman, based
on Indian modern art.
At the same time, Karsten
Greve Gallery hosts Manish
Nai's work, which is strongly
characterized by a simple
materiality. Nai uses, as the
starting point of his work, a
traditional natural product,
jute, transferred into an artis-
tic context.
14
A monumental tent instal-
lation by the Italian artist
Francesco clemente is
also presented in St. Moritz
school building. He cre-
ates these tents in India
and refers to them as
‘cave paintings’or ‘mobile
chapels’. clemente’s tents
take us to a place of si-
lence and contemplation.
At the same time, bischof-
berger Gallery presents a
retrospective that com-
bines clemente's ‘Indian’
work from the last 25 years,
with an ‘atmosphere’ be-
tween promise, seduction
and satisfaction or be-
tween faith and hope.
In robilant+voena Gallery,
the double exhibition
‘east/West’ by Jitish Kallat
and Julian Schnabel
manifests an encounter
between two cultures.
Schnabel works on pre-
existing photographic
images of the Hindu di-
vinity Shiva, while Kallat
depicts the many facets
of life by interlacing sev-
eral autobiographical,
art historical, political
and celestial references.
villa Flor hosts a collection of
recent works on paper by the
Swiss artist, author and pub-
lisher, Philipp Keel, all inspired
by the artist’s extensive travels.
Another highlight of this year‘s
festival is british artist billy child-
ish’s multi-part image series,
referencing to the engadin
artist, Giovanni Segantini.
These large-format paintings
were developed specifically
for St. Moritz Art Masters and
are being exhibited in the
French church of St. Moritz.

In addition, the chesa
Planta Museum, in
Samedan, presents the
private art collection
‘The bilderberg collec-
tion’, which contains
over 30 exhibits of differ-
ent eras of painting,
photography and sculp-
ture by unnamed artists.
This anonymity enables
to focus on the essential,
the works of art, giving
the viewer the opportu-
nity for an independent
judgment, free from art
world's trends and per-
sonality cults.
The repositioning of ‘Portable
Subway entrance’ sculpture
by the German artist Martin
Kippenberger, presents an
occasion to combine all of
the region's public sculptures
that can be visited all year
round in a ‘Sculpture course’.
existing works by olaf breun-
ing, James Turrell, roman
Signer and Hubert Kiecol can
be explored, as well as the
newly installed sculpture
‘Usagi Kannon’ by leiko Ike-
mura in St. Moritz, by the lake.

The Metropolitan Museum of
Art in New york hosts, from
June 27 to September 21, the
first retrospective work of the
famous American photogra-
pher, Garry Winogrand.
Winogrand, who was the
renowned photographer of
New york city’s and Ameri-
can life from the 1950s
through the early 1980s, is
widely considered one of
the most important photog-
raphers of the 20th century,
‘the central photographer
of his generation’, as the
American photographer,
curator, historian, critic and
Director of Photography at
MoMA, John Szarkowski,
called him.
Taking pictures from Fifth
Avenue to Sunset boule-
vard, from cape Kennedy
to the Texas State Fair dur-
ing the 1950s and 1960s,
Winogrand became one
of the principal voices of
the eruptive postwar
decades. Known primarily
as a street photographer,
he photographed with
dazzling energy business
moguls, everyday women
25
on the street, famous ac-
tors and athletes, hippies,
politicians, soldiers, animals
in zoos, rodeos, car culture,
airports, antiwar demon-
strators and the construc-
tion workers who beat
them bloody in view of the
unmoved police.
Winogrand's photographs
combine the hope and
happiness as well as the
anxiety and turbulence
that characterized America
during these decades, re-
vealing a society with many
possibilities but also an anx-
iety to spin out of control.
The artist’s pictures, although
often bulged with 20 or 30
figures, reflect a feeling of
human isolation, hinting at
something darker beneath
the veneer of the American
dream. black and white, dy-
namic, with a sense of un-
foreseen and haphazard,
Winogrand's pictures reveal
a unique poetry, giving us
the cadre of middle-class life
in postwar America.
Totally dedicated to his
work, Winogrand preferred
shooting film to editing his
pictures or producing books
and exhibitions, allowing
others to perform these tasks
for him. As a result, many of
his strongest early photo-
graphs fell into obscurity as
he matured. Dying suddenly
at the age of 56, he left be-
hind proof sheets from his
earlier years that he had
marked but never printed,
as well as approximately
6.600 rolls of film (about
250.000 images) that he had
never seen. These rolls of film
were developed after his
death.
Winogrand was born in 1928
in the then predominantly
Jewish working-class area of
the bronx. His father, Abra-
ham, was a leather worker,
and his mother, bertha,
made neckties for piece-
meal work. He studied paint-
ing at city college of New
york and painting and pho-
tography at columbia Uni-
versity in New york city in
1948. He also attended a
photojournalism class at The
New School for Social re-
search in New york city in
1951.

“you could
say that I am
a student of
photography
and I am;
but really I'm
a student of
America”-Garry Winogrand
John F. Kennedy, Democratic National Convention, Los Angeles
/ Winogrand
2828 In 1955 two of Winogrand's
photos appeared in ‘The
Family of Man’ exhibition at
the Museum of Modern Art.
Winogrand's first one-man
show was held at Image
Gallery in New york city in
1959. His first notable ap-
pearance was in ‘Five Unre-
lated Photographers’ in
1963, also at the Museum of
Modern Art, along with
Minor White, George Krause,
Jerome liebling and Ken
Heyman. In 1966 Wino-
grand exhibited at the
George eastman House in
rochester with lee Friedlan-
der, Duane Michals, bruce
Davidson, and Danny lyon
in an exhibition entitled ‘To-
ward a Social landscape’.
In 1967 he participated in
the ‘New Documents’ show
at MoMA with Diane Arbus
and lee Friedlander, cu-
rated by John Szarkowski.
In 1964 Winogrand was
awarded a Guggenheim
Fellowship Award to travel
through America. He was
awarded his second Guggen-
heim Fellowship in 1969 to
continue exploring on
media events and their ef-
fect on the public. Wino-
grand received a National
endowment for the Arts
Fellowship in 1975. In 1979,
with his third Guggenheim
Fellowship, he moved to
los Angeles to document
california.
Winogrand married Adri-
enne lubeau in 1952, sepa-
rating in 1963 and divorcing
in 1966. They had two chil-
dren, laurie and ethan.
Around 1967 Winogrand
married his second wife,
29
Judy Teller and they were
together until 1969. In 1972
he married eileen Adele
Hale, with whom he had a
daughter, Melissa.
Winogrand died of gall-
bladder cancer, in 1984 at
the age of 56.
The exhibition ‘Garry Wino-
grand’ brings together
more than 175 of the artist's
iconic images, a treasure
of unseen prints, and even
Winogrand’s famed series
of photographs made at
the Metropolitan Museum
in 1969, when the Museum
celebrated its centennial.
This exhibition offers a rigor-
ous overview of Wino-
grand's complete working
life and reveals for the first
time the full sweep of his
career.
‘Garry Winogrand’ is divided
into 3 parts. ‘Down from the
bronx’, presents photo-
graphs made in New york
from his start in 1950 until
1971, ‘A Student of America’
photographs made at the
same period during jour-
neys outside New york and
‘boom and bust’ Wino-
grand’s late work from
when he moved away from
New york in 1971 until his
death in 1984, with photo-
graphs from Texas and
Southern california, as well
as chicago, Washington,
Miami, and other locations,
as the artist was also an
avid traveler.
The exhibition is organized
by the San Francisco Mu-
seum of Modern Art and
the National Gallery of Art in
Washington.

The gallery space is an abstractspace, which can fit any figmentand fantasy. It begins to functiononly when there is the artist and theviewer. but among them there aremany obstacles: architecture, cab-inets, railings, fire extinguishers, hy-drants and lady guarding theworks. She is often the only humantouch in this inhuman space. Staringinto the distance, she's tired of hear-ing sounds from another video work,she's listening for months. Nobodyknows about her existence in the artworld. She's entirely unnoticed, butshe is a part of this abstract space. The image, floor, wall, chair and thelady from Gallery
