30 Years of United Photo Press Creative Artists



We present the 30 YEARS OF UNITED PHOTO PRESS CREATIVE ARTISTS international exhibition & creative artists book, that will inaugurate in October 2020 in Electricity Museum - Casa da Luz, in the heart of the city of Funchal in Madeira Islands.

The UNITED PHOTO PRESS is ready to restart !

After the international exhibition in January 2020 at Setúbal city and after the forced stop due to the global pandemic we still work too open our second international exhibition to continue commemorate the 30 years starting from October 01, 2020 at Funchal city. We can't wait to see you and your art works again and continue spread and sharing contemporary art all over the world from Electricity Museum on the beautiful Madeira Islands.

I begin by thanking our members throughout the world and the future members as well guests who participated in our international books, exhibitions of photography, painting, sculpture, installation, etc..., for your availability, imagination and interest in the United Photo Press over these 30 years. 

Our special thanks go to The American Institute of Arts and the University of Queensland in Australia for their recognition in our contribution to spread the contemporary art in the world. The work of today is the certainty of tomorrow, because we are all artistically together without distinction of race, color or sex, which stimulates our dream in inspiration of feeling new formulas, new techniques, new materials, so that we grow together ... 

Not all was easy in our 30 years of existence – of course we encountered and resolved difficulties, problems, deviations and setbacks. The largest obstacle and threat to the UPP's survival have been the tight budget/underfunding and continuously acquiring and retaining new members worldwide. Self-financing remains until now the biggest challenge to UPP as an international non-profit association.

Our publications and international exhibitions (ranging from Madeira Islands, Moscow, Tokyo, Munich and New York amongst other large cities) are intended to record both UPP's 30 years of struggle and inspiration in the process of spreading art construction. We hope that both serve as reflection material for society in general, art academies as well as art galleries worldwide.

After 30 years, the thematic scope is to continuously develop and diversify artistically. This will support to explain our longevity and the international interest: All generated by United Photo Press artists, books and exhibitions.

30 YEARS OF UNITED PHOTO PRESS CREATIVE ARTISTS is a international contemporary art fair that presents solo projects by international artists. The 30th anniversary will present for 30 days a forum for direct exchange of ideas and contacts between collectors, artists, photographers, designers and art professionals. The art fair features paintings, sculptures, photography art, installations, video art and live performance. 

The background music will be contributed by Austrian UPP member’s Tan Ses, winner of Academia Music Awards in Los Angeles for Best Ambient/Instrumental Song and American UPP member Alison Welles Jazz Quintet from New York. From Italy comes the first expected presentation  in Portugal of the documentary "Laboratory Greece" by UPP member filmmaker and photographer Jacopo Brogi, that portrays the genesis, decline and revenge of liberalism.

30 YEARS OF UNITED PHOTO PRESS CREATIVE ARTISTS provides artists and exhibitors with the unique opportunity to present their works to the world in a fascinate museum to an international audience of professionals as curators, gallerists, collectors, editors and publishers who seek to acquire, publish and encourage the best contemporary art talents. 

See 2019 edition here: 

The exhibition + book 30 YEARS OF UNITED PHOTO PRESS CREATIVE ARTISTS will be presented at Electricity Museum - Casa da Luz from 01 to 31 October 2020 in the city of Funchal in Madeira Islands. The vernissage of the United Photo Press exhibition will be held on 01 October, at 6pm.

United Photo Press member Philipp Deutler opens exhibition in Landshut


PHILIPP DEUTLER - PEOPLE & MOUNTAINS

 United Photo Press photographer member Philipp Deutler, opens today 16 May 2020 his solo exhibition "People & Mountains" at the Peter Litvai gallery in Landshut, Germany which is open until 14 June 2020.

Born and raised in Rostock, Philipp Deutler was very interested in photography as a means of capturing and documenting his environment. 

At that time pictures were taken from the immediate vicinity, later as an adult, pictures taken while traveling: cityscapes, cityscapes, people in the city.

Two black-and-white shots from this first urban period of work show people standing on a stage condensed in an extreme panorama format and invite you to invent stories.

With the first conscious experience of a glacier up close - it was the Pasterze in the Hohe Tauern - 12 years ago there was a change in Deutler's creative field.

Impressed by the beauty and sheer size of the ice and rock formations, from then on he photographed almost exclusively glacier and mountain landscapes. 

His rather objective view focuses on the exploration of the large-scale structures of the landscapes, which are often depicted almost in two dimensions, their materiality and the size relationships between people, their traces and features and the landscape.


Kehlstein I, 2008/2020

Nevertheless, as you get closer, you can still discover many details in the pictures and sometimes even decipher them. The colored landscape photographs shown in the exhibition span an arc over this phase of work.

Philipp Deutler studied electrical engineering and later media design, now lives in Munich and is a designer for operating and display concepts for an automotive company.

We are now making up for the Philipp Deutler exhibition planned for today March 16. A vernissage is unfortunately not possible under the current security regulations, so we have recorded an introductory interview for you, which you can watch here.



Deutler participated as a photographer in the United Photo Press 30th anniversary book.

Please take into account that, due to the current regulations, only two people may stay in the gallery at the same time. Wearing a face mask is mandatory, we ask you to bring your own.
