Eros & Thanatos In his book ''Beyond the Pleasure Principle'', Sigmund Freud stated that human instincts are determined by two opposing forces: Life and Death. This theory not only is deeply rooted in the Greek mythology, but it has association with the Greek tragedy as well. The two contrasting forces are Eros, being the God of love and fertility thus equated to life. Where as Thanatos is the God of…
Alcatraz Since 2020 I’ve visited Alcatraz - the former prison island in San Francisco Bay – to reflect on pandemic-era themes of isolation, confinement, and social control. Alcatraz is Spanish for a type of bird. We say “free as a bird,” but some birds live in cages. Sometimes they are jailbirds. Alcatraz Island, whose name evokes freedom, has become synonymous not with the bird but with the cage. Although the old penitentiary’s…
He was born 1886 in Guadalajara and died 1980 in Madrid: José Ortiz Echagüe was a man of many talents. In 1914, the engineer and balloon and aircraft pilot, took part in the first successful attempt to fly across the Straits of Gibraltar. He also founded two of Spain’s most successful large corporations, namely the C.A.S.A. aircraft factory in 1923 and in 1950 the automobile manufacturer SEAT. At the same…

Archives - August 3, 2022 This is the sixteenth dialogue in the Ettore Molinario Collection. A dialogue dedicated to that stage of voluptuousness and feminine personality that shoes represent. Heeled shoes, of course, photographed by Monsieur X and Helmut Newton, extraordinary masters, one anonymous and the other world-famous, who, even without ever having met, would have understood each other immediately. They were both women and shoes lovers. And walking together…
Archives - August 3, 2022 Photographer Rankin’s latest coffee-table book highlights the importance of creativity as a tool for personal mental well being. A companion series to Embrace (Rankin Publishing, 2021) works in this new limited run publication, titled An Exploding World, explore the aesthetic of destruction, through apocalyptic imagery reminiscent of nuclear explosions or comets. The creation of which became for the photographer an intimate take on artistic expression,…
Pacific Insomnia Pacific Insomnia is an ongoing photographic series created in French Polynesia. Every year, traveling funfairs arrive in Tahiti for a few weeks before disappearing again. For many island residents, they offer a rare form of entertainment and become part of a seasonal ritual. What initially attracted me was their vintage atmosphere. The rides, neon lights and painted decorations seem frozen in another era, creating a striking contrast with…
The Silence of Time This book was created during a period of returning home—both physically and emotionally. After years spent living abroad, I came back to the place I grew up, carrying a lifetime of experiences, loss, and unanswered questions. What began as an attempt to document my surroundings slowly became something more personal. The photographs turned inward. The writing followed. The house, the landscape, the quiet moments—they became a…

San Pietro island: a resilient tradition Off Carloforte, on the island of San Pietro in Sardinia, survives the last active tonnara in Italy — an economic pillar of the island, led by the raïs, a master fisherman whose knowledge is passed from father to son. One of only five traditional fisheries still active in Europe, alongside four Spanish almadrabas, it has practiced a fixed-trap technique for more than three millennia,…
Rock-A-Nore My photographic work explores the presence of people within a specific place. I focus on individuals I encounter in the local fishing community, as well as passers-by and visitors, many of whom arrive only for the weekend. I choose my subjects instinctively. I am drawn to their personality, their appearance, or the way they dress. This intuitive approach allows a natural relationship to emerge between the person and their…
Blood Memory Blood Memory is an on going portrait of my search for lost heritage. Native Americans from New York to Montana have invited me into their lives to record the transitions in traditions. In 1676 the hostiles of the King Philip's War were abandoned on St. Davids Island of Bermuda, where no fresh water existed. This is where culture was diluted and lost. This is where my story begins.…
The Quiet Impossibility The Quiet Impossibility is a photographic series inspired by the visual language of René Magritte and the tradition of surrealism. Through symbolic objects, obscured identities, mirrors and transformed figures, the work explores perception, identity and the fragile boundary between reality and imagination. Rather than recreating specific paintings, the series seeks to enter into a dialogue with Magritte’s ideas through contemporary photography. Familiar objects are displaced from their…
In a landscape where major photography events often remain concentrated in big cities, Biennale de photographie Xavier Miserachs champions a different idea of the festival: a human-scale event capable of bringing local memory into dialogue with present-day issues. This edition begins with a journey into history with « Dorothea Lange, un long voyage ». The exhibition devoted to the great American documentary photographer looks back at her work carried out in…
Only two weeks left to see the exhibition From Sea To Shining Sea at PDNB Gallery in Texas. Photography is the best medium for such an exhibition that illustrates our country’s culture and landscape in this 250th year of our country’s Declaration of Independence. PDNB Gallery explores this visual expression of America selecting special works by artists in their stable and its archives. Each work of art captures America in…
Published in the collection Les cahiers de la maison François Méchain, Une possible traversée – paysages et autres présences au monde – by Clara Chichin brings together recent and earlier images, conceived as a poem-sequence built around forms of passage, perception, and attentiveness to presence. The book is accompanied by a short text written by Clara Chichin herself, and by a longer text, To Be From Somewhere, by Nicole Vitré-Méchain, engaging with questions of…
Marie Mons continues a kind of quest for identity in this photographic series, in which she once again probes the question of the self-portrait. With constancy, she interrogates appearances: those of her body, those of her own gaze, those of ours... A reciprocity of questions between the model, the artist, and the viewer, a back-and-forth between certainties (what Marie knows of herself) and discoveries (what the final image might reveal…
