Peter M. Cook and Mathieu Chaze: Landscape and Architecture
8-11 May

“For The Phair 2025 Albumen Gallery brings together two contemporary photographers, who explore very different subjects in their work.
Peter M. Cook, a British photographer who lives and works in Japan, is known for his award-winning architecture photography whilst Mathieu Chaze, a French photographer who has made a name for himself with his atmospheric black and white landscape photography. The juxtaposition of the two artists and their respective works highlights the contrast between visual and aesthetic dimensions: geometry vs. fluidity, static vs. evolving, material vs. elemental. Yet, by the same token, this accentuated juxtaposition creates a vibrant visual dialogue between different ways of ‘seeing’ the world around us. Both architecture photography and landscape photography represent established genres with a rich tradition in the history of photography. In that context, bringing together two very different ends of the spectrum of photography not only highlights different aesthetic approaches to how we see the world but also initiates a visual conversation about the medium of photography itself.”
