A new show at London gallery Haunch of Venison has just opened, featuring the work of Wim Wenders.

This is actually Wenders' second show at the gallery since it opened in 2003, and the exhibition is comprised of a selection of his photographic work.

On view now until May the 17th, are the fascinating and beautiful results of location scouting; predominantly images of buildings and landscapes which document Wenders' travels to places from Brazil and Japan, to Armenia and Italy. 

Bringing together almost 40 images, taken between 1983 and 2011, 'Places, strange and quiet' will also be turned into a book.

"When I look at a map, the names of mountains, villages, rivers, lakes or landscape formations excite me, as long as I don't know them and have never been there," says Wenders. "I seem to have sharpened my sense of place for things that are out of place.

"Everybody turns right, because that's where it's interesting, I turn left where there is nothing! And sure enough, I soon stand in front of my sort of place. I don't know, it must be some sort of inbuilt radar that often directs me to places that are strangely quiet, or quietly strange".
