"Swiss photographer Beat Streuli (born 1957) draws connections between his early black-and-white photographs and more recent photographs, installations and video stills from the past seven years. Accompanying this chronology are essays on themes of urbanism, sociology, perception and media."

Public Work 1996–2011 surveys his large-scale installations in public spaces."
"We associate colour with emotion. Colour facilitates communication, influences our perception and can be used symbolically. But is that all? The role of colour in artistic work is indeed diverse. Yves Klein wanted to remove materiality from his works using International Klein Blue, the colour he created. In the work of the Leipzig painter Hartwig Ebersbach, colour is the source of expressive movement and extreme energy. The catalogue do ..."
"Urban Views enacts a provocative dialogue between the large-format color photos of Swiss artist Beat Streuli and the black-and-white photography of Gabriele Basilico."
"Beat Streuli's photographs of street scenes from the metropolises of the world offer momentary shots of everyday life. Usually, the protagonists of the pictures are ignorant of being photographed and are pinned down at moments in which they seem withdrawn and unaware of their effect on their surroundings, unconnected even when accompanied by another. Projected by Streuli as large-format slides or in endless loops on television screens, ..."

"Ikon, in collaboration with EACC Castellon, presents photography, video and digital projections by acclaimed Swiss artist Beat Streuli. A kind of portraiture of urban life, his work contains close-up images of people, often captured unawares as they negotiate city streets. In the midst of abstract city details, their faces, gestures and looks engage us in unremarkable, everyday drama.""

Open City brings together the work of 19 artists to examine the history of street photography over the course of the last half-century. It takes as i ..."
