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:…

Vancouver Beaches Beaches, mountains and forests surround Vancouver and frame the glass towers and other usual city dwellings created by humanity. Perhaps this is why Vancouver excels in surveys which judge quality of life. This natural beauty is a constant reminder that we are the ones that are invading nature and that nature will always be bigger than us. There are several beaches that can be enjoyed throughout Vancouver and…

Meanwhile, Peter Weiermair, who had published Unanimated with his publishing house All Saints Press, passed away. I didn't have the energy to look for another publisher, and I published…

Captured by Boogie, one of the most influential photographers of street culture in the new millennium, these edgy and gritty—nay, jolting—images track the darker side of Bangkok, Thailand…the Land of Smiles. "What comes to mind when you think of Thailand? For many, it's the Land of Smiles, but that couldn't be further from the truth," argues Boogie, "at least when you take the time to scratch beneath the surface." After…
I wanted for this exhibition to show my photos as I would have shown movies. I started to photograph actresses at the age of 16-17 and I found in them playmates with whom I have continued since, to create images, to take pictures, but most often wanted to put them in a place, in an atmosphere, as if this shot there, this image there, were the beginning of a film.…

Claire and Philippe Ordioni : Jean-Claude Dreyfus beside himself. It all started - well almost - the day when Jean-Claude Dreyfus, who spent his life in the parallel worlds of theater and movies, "died" under the influence of mockery. It might sound terrible. But make no mistake, the actor is a hydra, a phoenix. Even better: a pretty flower. Claire and Philippe Ordioni as meticulous horticulturists took care of it.…
Mother and Father is a moving journal of the final years of a sixty-year marriage. For ten years, from 1997 to 2007 Paddy Summerfield photographed his parents, reflecting on the bond between them, which even the effects of Alzheimers could not break. They become symbols in a drama of balance and tension, which is both domestic and epic. As he says: “I recorded my mother’s loss of the world, my…
