Marly Porto is curator of the collection “A Brazilian photographic collection at the BnF” with Héloïse Cones. She just sent us this portfolio by Raphael Alves called “Riversick”. “Riversick” is a work about how people, nature, and the urban environment share space in Manaus (the author’s birthplace, in Amazonas, Brazil) and its surrounding areas — the aspiring metropolitan region. More than that, it is a reverie about the relationship between…

Architecture of the Contemplatives In the early morning, in Saint-Gervais, Paris becomes this silence where God makes his voice heard. They are twenty. Whatever their age, their studies, their origin, the same call unites them: to contemplate God in the city of men.

In a society that has made official a consistent policy of amnesia, through censorship of history teachings, especially of certain…
