You must believe in spring This project explores my unreliable narrative as an immigrant, as someone alien to a new territory. My work integrates photography and embroidery, creating unique pieces that deconstruct and reconstruct landscape imagery. I capture photos during car journeys, often with my partner driving. I then digitally manipulate these raw images, employing excessive image correction tools("retouch" and "blend" functions) until they lose their single vanishing point. Once…
Urban Duality This photographic series captures a silent dialogue between historic architecture and the palpable absence of daily life. The shots, while anchored in the tangibility of spaces, invite reflection that transcends the image fixed on film. The monochrome palette and the choice of black and white exalt the drama of architectural forms and chiaroscuro, highlighting the latent nature of places concealing untold stories. Each frame embodies a delicate balance…

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!

When he started work as a photographer in the late sixties, Hans Feurer could already look back on a very successful career at an advertising company. He showed talent in inventing the right phrases and finding the perfect pictures to get the best results for his clients.

Our collaborator Jean-Paul Gavard-Perret publishes a book "Beckett - Extinctions" at the Éditions Douro, Chaumont. Here's how he presents it: Beckett: what happens or the death of words and images This essay expresses the rut which in Beckett springs from the impossibility of retaining anything. The fear of the void, the impossibility of saying and representing becomes the necessary extinguishing of a light until the moment of absolute destitution. Here…

Let him take you back in time and share his personal story, plus an outlook on what's next for him. Nadine…
