Commuter Motions Traveling from the industrial town of Easton, Pennsylvania, through sparsely populated western New Jersey, and into the cacophony of New York City, Commuter Motions is a photography series that develops from the experiential capture of an eighty-mile commute. By opposing the usual fixity of photography, the series attempts to capture the energy and movement of that commute using an almost Bergsonian approach, which, through time-lapse, builds images from…
On the road to Woleu Ntem A family story as a starting point, then images of a journey on a freshly paved road. The machine disembowels the country from bottom to top, and reveals an African photographic atmosphere. A travel diary where Jocelyn Trembleau takes the road in Gabon, which is good for him.
White regality In Copenaghen, UNESCO World Capital of Architecture 2023-2025, I have had the great privilege to enter The Royal Danish Opera House’s by the Danish architect Henning Larsen and I have been impressed by the elegant geometry of its interiors. From the chandeliers in the foyer created by the international artist Olafur Eliasson to the design of the main spaces, everything resonates with the surrounding landscape of the city…

Sensuelle This series began in 2009 and continues today. Along with working on water and the ocean, I play with the flame. The chiaroscuro, the mood of the moment, the place of fire, everything is conducive to evocation. The curve is the muse, the light the mistress, the black the revealer. The framing, the black and white then the color and finally the gradient towards the monochrome are a photographed…
This was the solo show at Paci contemporary gallery for the modern art fair in Milan, Miart Milano, which took place this weekend. Leslie Krims remains one of the most amazing photographers of the turn of the last century, one of the most provocative too! Photography had a pope at that time: John Szarkowski, the director of the photography department at MoMA. Leslie called him an old arthritic tap dancer. We all…
Alain Teulié : A nostalgic vision of the world. After his baccalaureate, Alain Teulié entered the Cours Florent. He acted in several plays.

He tells us about the acquisition of her estate, her work trajectory and her current exhibitions. How did the acquisition of Deborah Turbeville's estate come about? In January 2020, Michael W.

Art historian Maeva Dubrez has published a well-documented essay on Deborah Turbeville's work, the fruit of extensive research, with ACTEDITIONS. Here is an extract of her essay: This essay solves the enigma of Deborah Turbeville's work by going over her photographic prints with a fine tooth-comb and exposing the infinite layers that lie beneath. She is more than a photographer : her work continually breaks down the blurred boundaries between…
As part of Women's History Month and to celebrate the release of the monograph "Deborah Turbeville: Photocollage," The National Arts Club of New York hosted the symposium "Deborah Turbeville and the Female Gaze," focusing on women's perspectives and portrayal in photography. First defined by Laura Mulvey in 1975 in her article "Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema," the concept of the female gaze emerged as a rebellion against the male gaze.…
Photo Elysée recently paid tribute to Deborah Turbeville, an American photographer recognised in the 1970s for her fashion photographs. But Turbeville is much more than that; it is a work on photography and its materiality. In collaboration with the MUUS collection, Photo Elysée allows us to discover a true female artist. It's challenging to classify Deborah Turbeville's (1932-2013) work because her oeuvre is rich in research and diverse use of…
His name: Bertrand Cardon. He is a photographer. Locked in his home for the past few weeks, he opened his archives. And there found wonderful images of a great lady of fashion photography: Deborah Turbeville with whom, for 35 years he shared a great friendship! He tells us : It was a day in May, in 1981, already a historical period, that Rénate Gallois-Monbrun called to ask me if I…

Most observers will put the birth of the modern photography market around the end of the 1960s, when a few galleries opened on either side of the Atlantic. In 1971, Sotheby’s, London, started its program of regular photography auctions, soon to be followed by Christie’s. Since then, the photography market has grown to proportions that the pioneers could hardly have dreamt of, not least in the proliferation of photography fairs…

Vince Aletti, collector, author, curator and winner of this year’s AIPAD Award, lives in a seven-room apartment in New York’s East Village. It’s filled to the brim with his enormous collection, or as he describes it, “a collection of collections”, of magazines, photographs, books, vinyl records, and all manner of ephemera. Still, there’s always room for more. How would you describe yourself as a collector? – As someone who looks…
