The two German artists, Alexander Rosenkranz and Florian Merdes, present a multimedia exploration of Tempelhofer Feld, the largest public space in the world. Located in the heart of Berlin, this former airport, built under the Nazi regime and later becoming a symbol of liberation, has since been transformed into an urban park.

The “Merveilleuses” are photographs of pin-ups in lingerie, pages of men's magazines whose ink has been sanded off to make frescoes of women whose image disappears rubbed out. The “Tools” used by the “Wonderful Women” to make themselves beautiful…
There, where silence reigns Photography is my 'zone', where silence reigns, where time has stopped. When I photograph I go beyond the barbed wire, the guards' sentry box, the last light on the asphalt. When I photograph I become a stalker, I enter without realising it, into the zone of alienation, like in a fever I follow desire, I scrutinise chance, life, destiny. I immerse myself in the mystery, and…

Although the exhibition Monuments and Immortelles is held in a historic building in the center of Mulhouse, it is under the sign of Nida. This Lithuanian seaside town hosts an…

We had published some of his documentary photographs of Sub-Saharan regions, among those of his fellow photographers with a documentary tendency.

Véronique Sablery with time by Jean-Paul Gavard-Perret Véronique Sablery transfigures here the desperate silences and muted voices in such a place. “Etats Dames” is a meeting with ladies. Not just any ones. And not just anywhere. Founded around 1060 by Mathilde of Flanders, Duchess of Normandy and wife of William the Conqueror, the Abbaye aux Dames housed Benedictine nuns before becoming a barracks, a Hôtel-Dieu, a hospice then, restored, the…

This film, 620 small axis made at that time in France, I had to first of course in absolute darkness, rewind it on a 120 large axis reel in order to be able to…
