Jean-Philippe Charbonnier is often described as an adventurer, an intrepid reporter looking for new horizons, traveling the world for the monthly magazine Réalités, for which he was employed since 1950. However, he spent a lot of time photographing his own country, from Roubaix to Arles, passing through the Creuse and Paris, his hometown. Fascinated by his contemporaries, whether they were close or unknown to him, he used to say: “Exoticism…
At Paris Photo 2022, I turned a corner and was caught by a wall of small format prints in dark sepia tone, those were genuine gelatin silver prints.

One image in particular attracted my attention: did this Jesus on the crucifix lose his arm after blocking…

Drawers full of previously unseen negatives and contact sheets generated from extensive travels from his home in London to far flung corners of China, Iceland, Spain and Sierra Leone had become an unresolved issue sitting in…
Dirk Braeckman started out as a painter, initially only using photography as a medium to document his subjects. This initial practice of painting was decisive in the way in which photography then became the catalyst for a painter's eye. Dirk Braeckman's art does not produce images because images have no surface, unlike his works whose granulation matters as much as a painter's touch matters. A painting is first of all…

This is the twenty first dialogue in the Ettore Molinario Collection. I have the pleasure of starting 2023 staging an imaginary encounter between Consuelo Fould and Cindy Sherman. Perhaps few remember the first, yet we can consider her a pioneer of those issues that the American artist has been dealing with for forty years now. This dialogue is therefore a wish and a tribute to the women who still fight…
