303 Gallery Raises Proceeds with Stephen Shore 'Survivors in Ukraine' Project

Stephen Shore Artist Profile Stephen Shore View Bio, Works & Exhibitions

In 2012 and 2013, American photographer Stephen Shore travelled to Ukraine, meeting with Holocaust survivors who had relocated after the Second World War.

Documenting their homes and villages, the resulting photographs capture intimate portraits and quotidian details in Shore's characteristic colour palette and diaristic manner.

New York's 303 Gallery have brought together a selection of these images in a Viewing Room, and until 9 March 2022, 100 percent of proceeds will be donated to the United Ukrainian American Relief Committee, Inc. and their Humanitarian Aid Fund for Victims of War in Ukraine, with each photograph at a lowered price of $10,000.

Director of the Photography Program at Bard College since 1982, Shore made his name in 1960s New York at just 14, when his work was acquired by the Museum of Modern Art.

Part of Andy Warhol's inner circle at the Factory in his late teens and early 20s, Shore became the first living photographer to have a solo exhibition at the Metropolitan Musuem of Art in 1971, aged just 23.

Documenting American vernacular scenes throughout the 1970s, colour has been Shore's primary tool to 'communicate the palette of age and the palette of culture'. Such is the effect of his 'Survivors in Ukraine' photographs, which reflect the continued effects of war beyond immediate violence.

An exhibition of the artist's photographs continues at the gallery in New York until 12 March 2022. —[O]
