His name is Jean Charles Blanc. His book is titled: Fermé le dimanche (Closed on Sunday). It is published by éditions à la sauvette. He accompanied his images with this text: Pedestrian of Paris, how many times I had the project of making little Parisian “sketches”. But my photographic attempts always left me unsatisfied. I had the idea of photographing a street. Not Ed Ruscha style, but a street full…
Always looking for new talents to exhibit, in the middle of a set of proposed photographs, two or three images caught my attention. A few researches later, I found the author's site for these interesting works. The site confirmed my interest in this work which stood out among the others. This young designer from Latin America already uses knowledge of a good technical level that she combines with a capacity…
Mathilda May for the magazine “ELLE” in the 90s. It seems to me that at that time she was pregnant. If you look closely, you can see it in her eyes. There is in the eyes of the women at this precise moment a disturbing mixture of plenitude, confidence in the future and a grateful love for the man in question, which the latter had better take advantage of because…

Photographs from a series taken indoors and whose films of the same origin were developed in different alternative ecological developers. After having developed black and white films in different ingredients, photographs of still lifes, flowers, various landscapes... I chose this time to approach reportage photography with the presence of characters in my images. This type of shooting, practiced by many photographers, was essential to my experiences with the widest possible…

This book is one of the major books that a connoisseur of the photographic sphere must have in his personal library.…
Some labels outlive their usefulness and anyone now calling themselves a war photographer should arouse more suspicion than applause. We certainly don’t need professional photographers to remind us that war is about killing people, its violence obscene, and Tim Hetherington – who did not like having the label ‘war photographer’ attached to his work – thought and felt this. It is something that makes his death, at the age of…
For me, there is always the work being presented but also there is the presentation.

First Came a Friendship: Sidney B. Felsen and the Artists at Gemini G.E.L., on view now at the Getty Center brings previously unseen work to…
This new exhibition that the Little Big Galerie is devoting to Estelle Lagarde constitutes a trilogy. Trilogy born from the photographer's desire to confront her approach, her narrative and emotional ambition, no longer at the heart of the building, the constructions of human architecture, but this time towards the outside, nature, the landscape, the elements that sculpt and cross them. And always at the center, the child. The link that…

With Greek roots and steeped in French culture, he embodies the harmonious fusion of these two worlds.
