Apple has announced “What Holds Us,” a photography exhibition featuring photos shot solely on the iPhone 18 Pro by Alex Prager, Jack Davison, and Jimmy Chin.
“Curated by Kathy Ryan, a new photography exhibition showcases the full range of creative capabilities unlocked by the most advanced iPhone camera system yet.”
The exhibition explores human connection through crowd scenes, portraits involving clay, and mountain photography.
“The theme holds a mirror to our increasingly fragmented world,” explains Kathy Ryan, the exhibition’s curator and the former longtime director of photography for The New York Times Magazine. “Rather than adding to this tension, ‘What Holds Us’ is a showcase of the limitless possibilities that emerge when three extraordinary artists are given the creative space to explore the idea of what connects us, using this incredible tool.”
“What makes iPhone such a compelling creative tool is its immediacy — it puts the ability to see, experiment, and create directly into everyone’s hands,” Ryan continued. “Seeing what Alex, Jack, and Jimmy are able to create with a device we all carry every day challenges our ideas of what photography can be and shows us how it can remain true to the original values of the craft while embracing new tools and possibilities.”
“What Holds Us” will be on display in New York City from September 18 to 20, and over the coming months, the exhibition will travel to London and Shanghai. Many of the exhibition’s images are available for viewing in Apple’s Newsroom post.
