Highway 40 Quebec-Montreal Here are 15 photos from a series of 32 "chronicling" a trip from Quebec City to Montreal on Highway 40 at sunset. I took advantage of the fact that I wasn't the driver to photograph the landscape along the highway, using relatively slow exposure times to obtain deliberate abstractions. The effect varies according to the nature, variety and distance of the vegetation that borders it, but also…

Masks Having discovered Venice outside of the carnival festivities, I toured the workshops and boutiques of the artisans, the real ones who make things made in Venice. Whether they are made of leather, wood, plaster, papier-mâché, painted, decorated with stones, jewels or feathers, they are true works of art. A long time ago the main function of the mask was to preserve anonymity, allowing its owner to play a role…
Paths My paths are a starting point. They are a collection of the fascination I feel when I discover them... Paths hide a thousand possibilities; they can open up a new path or close another. Paths get lost or they find each other again. There are those who no longer offer a way out, those who are a birth, those who destroy themselves, and those who discover a new heaven.…

Mercurial Alchemists believe in the ultimate unity of matter and spirit; the direct correlation that exists between the tangible physical world (the Body) and the immaterial realm of consciousness (the Soul). To them, the human Mind is the special place in the cosmos that stands in between the two, and is thus able to conceive them not as separate, but rather as parallels on different dimensions. As Above, So Below:…

Christian Caujolle and Cambodian photography relationship is about commitment. From 1997, when he created his first studio in Phnom Penh where photography, laminated like other forms of artistic expression, had disappeared during the Khmer Rouge terror, until today when he continues to animate the Photo Phnom Penh festival, Christian Caujolle considers his intervention in Cambodia as an engagement. In a country where there is no fixed image training, the festival…

Album of the 1st International Exhibition of Nude Photography, Paris, 1933 NUS NUS NUS… If an even larger typography had been possible, no doubt it would have been used to tag this album; but, it was downright impossible in this case since these three letters N.U.S. arranged diagonally occupy the entire surface of the cover [Ill. 01]; [Fig. 02], imposing itself imperatively. This huge oversized NUS was also quite provocative…
Thierry Maindrault’s Monthly Chronicle Today I will share with you the latest adventures of NFTs. This new sea serpent that comes to us from the dark abyss to the surface, intermittently, under the light of the media. A little refreshment for our minds. An NFT ("Non-Fungible Token”) is a unique digital file, which is created by a blockchain (mainly Ethereum), and inseparable from a digital asset (photo, video, etc.). In…
Cultuurcentrum De Steiger Menen presents an exhibition by Paul D'Haese, Borderline. In April 1935, the New York gallery owner, Julien Levy, brought together the pictures of Henri Cartier-Bresson, Manuel Alvarez Bravo and Walker Evans in a show under the title of Anti-graphic photographs. As the title of their exhibition suggests, these three young artists shared the same rejection of photography as “graphic art”, which was very much in vogue at…

Stéphane Mahé is exhibiting his latest Mood series at the Galerie Le Lieu-Lorient until March 12th. He presents it with these words. When the real becomes surreal... open the door on this dirt road... set yourself in motion guided by instinct, in search of emotions... in search of these precious, non-repetitive moments, that are unique and brief! fleeting! These moments of full and complete availability to what surrounds me, almost…
The Galerie Turetsky in Geneva presents an exhibition of Catherine Gfeller called Voices in Kyev. Back in 2017, I was commissioned by the Embassy of Switzerland to celebrate the 25th year anniversary of the bilateral relation between our two countries. The artwork entitled Voices in Kyiv (photographs, videos, sound installations) were exhibited in the Shevchenko National Museum in Kyiv along with the publication of a book written by Andrey Kurkov.…

Atypical character of the Parisian night, Bruce Meritte has always been, as far as he can remember, passionate about photography. Born in Paris, in April 1968, he started life with a cry which already meant "enjoy your fuckin' life", a motto which would later govern each of his actions until he had it tattooed on his arm so he would not forget it, “You never know! With his baccalaureate in…
The life of Frans Krajcberg is a “Traversée du feu” (title of the biography of Claude Mollard and Pascale Lismonde, published in 2005 during the major retrospective at Bagatelle). An initiatory journey that takes us from death to rebirth and life: The exhibition invites the visitor to walk in the footsteps of Frans Krajcberg, from the 1960s to 2000. From wonder to revolt! From sublimated Nature to massacred Nature! From…
Galerie XII presents a group exhibition You Should See This!, This new show features the trailblazing works of Aaron Lacy, Adey, Patty Carroll, and Yannis Guibinga. Each artist brings a point of view to the exhibition, each fearlessly delving into the intricacies, complexities, and joy that identity can mean to the human experience. Essentially a celebration of humanity, the works wants to invite to contemplate their specificity while extending an…
The Hulett Collection presents the work of French artist, Alain Laboile, who happened upon photography while searching for a way to document his massive sculptures created in the French countryside near his home. Within a short amount of time his lens had turned towards his six homeschooled children and their daily lives. This has resulted in an earnest and beautiful series of work created by a photography outsider, of sorts.…
Roberto Spampinato was one of the post-war Italian photographers who documented Italy’s socioeconomical condition in the mid-twentieth century and its birth as a democratic nation. He captured the faces and scenes of a nation liberated from dictatorship, in which everything was difficult and almost impossible, but nonetheless vibrated with vitality and hope. Spampinato was born in Milan in 1924 and began to photograph in the 50s, with a precise taste…
This is one of the most attractive best wishes portfolios we have received. It is signed Marc Dubord. He added these few sentences: The naked body is in art a recurrence of all disciplines and has covered the walls of our museums and exhibitions for decades... The back is something present in the odalisques and other art, but we do not think about the live models and their perception... This…
On December 1, Gabriel Bauret gave a formidable lecture on Robert Doisneau for Camera at the Centro Italiano per la Fotografia in Turin. En voici une transcription écrite faite par lui ! Aujourd’hui Robert Doisneau Cette exposition n’est pas une rétrospective ; elle n’embrasse pas la totalité de l’œuvre – la quantité de négatifs conservés, 450.000, donne la mesure de l’étendue de la production –, mais participe d’un désir de mettre…
