As part of the Mulhouse Photography Biennale, curator Sonia Voss has envisioned a poetic dialogue between two artists, each exploring ecological issues in their own way: Lithuanian Andrej Polukord and French artist Léa Habourdin meet within the Chapelle Saint-Jean. 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…

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…
Renée Jacobs : A free woman A former American lawyer specializing in civil rights and constitutional litigation, Renée Jacobs is now well known for her nude photographs of women - her favorite subject - and is thus fulfilling a childhood dream. Atypical in her approach, her reconversion quickly earned her the International Photography Award (IPA) in 2008. While working as a photojournalist for The New York Times and the Philadelphia…
Her name is Sophie Delaporte. Her exhibition: Bloom of Color runs from June 30 to August 10. Vicky Goldberg wrote of her images: It's theater, it's crazy, it's dance without narration, it's fun, it's intense. More than a century ago, Lois Fuller, who would go on to have a major influence on modern dance, performed in voluminous flowing dresses. Although she never revealed her body, she created wild, charming and…

Jacques Henri Lartigue's L’épreuve de la couleur sheds light on a little-known part of the famous photographer's work: his fascination with stereoscopic Autochrome – one of the first color photography processes just introduced. The 90 preserved plates, produced from 1912 to 1928 then in 1946, are presented here for the first time in their entirety and in their original format. This process constitutes a formidable tool for exploration and renews…

Simon Depardon travelled to Deleitosa Spain to follow in the footsteps of W. Eugene Smith. Echoing the American's images, his series captures the daily…
The Biarritz Media Library offers us a retrospective of 30 years of images, linking the American photographer to the Basque Country. American teaching photographer, and member of the VU agency since 1993, Anne Rearick has developed documentary work close to her contemporaries, through a humanist perspective. It was on the occasion of the publication of the book Gure Bazterrak – Our landscapes – that the city of Biarritz decided to…
For the first time, the work of Jean Pierre Devals appeared a few years ago in Phot'Aubrac. We had published some of his documentary photographs of Sub-Saharan regions, among those of his fellow photographers with a documentary tendency. It is in a completely different register that images of Jean Pierre are hung in a very original gallery in Aveyron. The “Le Chant du Pain” gallery was the boutique of a…
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…
Film can “reveal” some very nice surprises to us, witness these images from a virgin Kodak Plus x pan 125 ASA film that has expired since October 1974, which I decided to finally use this morning. 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…

With Paris 1944, une semaine en août,…
Ihiro Hamayi is the director of the T3 Photo Festival, who organizes the first photographic fair devoted to Asian photography this year. Dear Ihiro, tell us more about you and how you created the T3 Photo Festival Tokyo. To begin with, I wanted to be an artist myself, just like many curators. But I realized during university in San Diego (US) it wasn’t my path. I came back to Tokyo,…

We discussed with her curating a fair and the promising years to come for this new fair dedicated to Asian photography.

Marc Feustel is the curator of two flagship exhibitions at the 2024 edition of the T3 Photo Festival Tokyo: "Alternative Visions: A Female Perspective" and "The Wall vs the Page." Let’s start with the exhibition "Alternative Visions: A Female Perspective." What is its genesis? In 2017, I was invited by the T3 Photo Festival to give a lecture on the Western perception of Japanese photography. I was quite surprised to…
Among the myriad exhibitions in the Yaesu district, the T3 Photo Festival Tokyo offers a view on the construction of masculinity through the lens of the image. Curated by Mika Kobayashi, the exhibition "Where did this ‘masculinity’ come from?" echoes the fiftieth anniversary of the landmark exhibition opened at MoMA in 1974, which sought to gather and shed light on the vibrant photographic creation in Japan. While that exhibition allowed…
The Japanese T3 Photo Fair Asia held its first edition from Friday, October 18, to Monday, October 21. In the vast space of Midtown Yaesu, it brought together Japanese and Korean galleries, before expanding next year to include other historical scenes emerging from the Asian continent. Walking through a fair remains a subjective exercise. Whether you are a collector or a passionate enthusiast, you move from gallery to artist, from…
The T3 Tokyo Photo Festival unfolds in the Nihonbashi district in unusual venues. Exploration tour. Technology, talent, and tolerance. The T3 Tokyo Photo Festival gathers around these three words starting with the letter T, echoing Richard Florida's theory, The Rise of the Creative Class (2002). As one strolls among the exhibitions in the official program as well as its satellite program, a fourth word should be added: tribulation. While…
Cécile Tréal: A Moment in Time It’s been a long time since Cécile Tréal and I first met. It was her father who introduced us, convinced we would get along—and he was right. I can still see us, driving through the streets of Paris in her little Fiat 500… from back in the day! singing at the top of our lungs, oblivious to the world around us. These memories, and…
