Michael Abramson (1948-2011) was an acclaimed Chicago photographer who produced a large body of artistic and commercial work. He established his reputation during the mid- to late-seventies with his intimate portraits of nightlife on Chicago's South Side. Abramson's South Side portfolio is often compared to the great French photographer Brassai, who captured scenes of Parisian nightclubs during the late 1920s-1930s.
During the late seventies, Abramson also photographed patrons at various ballrooms throughout Chicago and at the Festival Theater, a strip club in Chicago where photographers were occasionally invited to take pictures of the performers both backstage and during the show. Michael's portfolio is focused on the other photographers taking the shots. All of these B/W images similarly reflect a time and place where people went during the mid- to late-seventies in Chicago.

Suraj Bhamra is a Metro Detroit photographer born in Windsor, Ontario. Loess is his first solo exhibition and intends to highlight the vibrant immigrant community in Hamtramck, Michigan. The project intends to draw attention to the intersection of immigrant identity, ubiquitous symbols of American pride, the contentious contemporary American political climate, and everyday life in the community.
Loess, a loosely compacted sedimentary deposit commonly found in the American Midwest, was chosen as the name of this project as a metaphor for various communities coming together to settle the American landscape, much like that of the wind-blown particles that come to form Loess. Although calcareous, porous, and loosely formed, it remains striking in its golden hue and important in its foundation of our landscape.

Growing up in London, Matt Stuart spent most of his childhood rolling along the streets on his skateboard. Twenty years later,
he walks these same streets, and instead of hearing the hum of
skateboard wheels, he hears the click of the shutter being fired from
his Leica rangefinder camera.
When Matt Stuart was in his twenties his father gave him two books, one
by Henri Cartier-Bresson and the other by Robert Frank. It was then that
he became enamored of the world of street photography and discovered
other artists who were doing the same. Today, when he isn’t at home with
his family, he is either working as a commercial advertising
photographer or pursuing his passion for documenting life on the
streets.
Matt is represented by Magnum Photos.
