Jean Daniel Lorieux: A different way of looking at things An entire era emblematic photographer, Jean-Daniel Lorieux followed in the footsteps of artists such as Helmut Newton and Guy Bourdin.

New York Street Diaries is a new coffee table book for all the fans of the Big Apple. Phil Penman shows the big city on the east coast of the USA from a side that is rarely seen, calm and tranquil.

Messy beds, piles of objects scattered on the floor, trinkets of all kinds adorning a dresser turned into a sanctuary for these objects-slash-totems.

Makeup and beauty products, clothes and medals, musical instruments or sports gear, computers and video games, photographs and posters,…

This is the twenty-eigth dialogue from the Ettore Molinario Collection. A dialogue born from the entry into the collection of one of the greatest Italian artists, Paolo Gioli, precisely forty years after his famous exhibition at the Centre Pompidou in Paris in 1983. In a mirror more than in a dialogue this time, since the images look so alike. There are two chasms, two trenches to penetrate the world of…

The CRP/ presents “Mytho”, a show of new work by French artist Robin Lopvet that examines the digital image and its infinite powers through a number of series. The first of these series, Là d’où je viens (Where I’m from), sees Robin Lopvet expose the fundamentals of his work.

Illusions I invite you to participate in an experiment, to collaborate on a confusing creative project, as much as possible without reservation or questioning. To suspend one's disbelief, to break with one's disbelief, is to accept living a fiction as if it were reality. I transform reality and sometimes the appearance of the objects I photograph. I make the staging enigmatic, mysterious, sometimes humorous, but also disturbing in order to…

The river is a painter, and its creative potential is simply impressive. But she needs us, and a cloudless sun, to reveal herself to our eyes, to the point of creating her ephemeral works. The photographer's day then begins with two hours of installing heavy equipment, cobbled together as best as possible, and with the means at hand. Then finally comes the time for magic and wonder. The lines of…

Paris, always Paris... the images captured are often the result of what the unconscious or our knowledge and life experiences suggest to us, our memory acting as an hard drive. I thought that even the most cunning Mobsters would put an end to this dummy thrown away and forgotten among the trash of society. The Passage d'Enfer parallel to rue Campagne Première transports me into the circles of hell of…

Elements They have always been for me, in nature, a source of photographic inspiration and subjects of reflection, both complex and simple, large or small. Generally speaking, we find them all around us on our planet. Spontaneously it is customary to cite four, water, air, earth and fire. They have been our basis of evolution and essential to our present and future life. For my part I consider that rocks,…

Paris Under Attack In his book Station Metropolis, direction Coruscant, geographer Alain Musset maps the cities of science fiction. He points out that the aim of science fiction is not to describe an ideal future society, but to show or denounce the fantasies and anxieties, aspirations and dreams of an era. While some people think that Los Angeles today resembles Ridley Scott's iconic film Blade Runner (set in 2019) and…
