Inspired by works belonging to the world of art history that have accompanied me since adolescence, this particular bond is like that of a family of souls whose invisible family tree whispers to me to draw it. This purpose is carried out as follows: compose a setting, stylize the models, illuminate, and guide the subject in front of my lens. Photograph and work in post-production on digital files up to…

Brice Matthieussent : When did you go to New York for the first time? Harry Gruyaert : In 1968. […] In Manhattan, I encountered again Richard Nonas, an American sculptor I met in Paris, who became a great friend. I stayed three or four months in New York, in Trisha Brown's loft, where Richard was staying at that time. He helped me meet a lot of artists, including Gordon Matta-Clark,…
No ideas but in things « No ideas but in things », says William Carlos Williams, the American poet; no ideas that cannot be embodied in juxtaposed, moving things. « The poet thinks with his poem. In that lies his thought, and that in itself is the profundity. » The photographs of Harry Gruyaert have always seemed to me images of things, even when they are pictures of people. But…
When I first went to Morocco in the 1970s, I fell in love with the country. I felt like I had fallen into a painting by Brueghel. Then I went back to find certain places, to relive the initial emotion. What first seduced me was the order of things and life in the countryside. There was a splendid harmony between shapes, colors, daily gestures and nature. The importance of family,…
Brice Matthieussent : In your images of Morocco, there are a lot of people moving, few sedentary people. Travelers, walkers, passengers, the man in the red fez in the street, the woman with the bundle of wood, the one who seems to be dancing as she tumbles down her stairs in the blue city, the man alone among the red walls, the little girl who has her hand over her…
Moscow, USSR 1989 Something is wrong. This large room, empty as the bottom of a swimming pool, is full as an egg. And everything it contains says something other than what it shows. The electric hand dryers and the no smoking sign indicate a public place, but everywhere else the signs of private space are multiplied: medicine cabinet, poster, sideboard, placemat, fruit, vases, plants. And it is indeed the strangeness…
Harry Gruyaert's affinity with cinema was recently confirmed with his film series A Sense of Place. In the tradition of the slideshow (projection of slides with a soundtrack), these short videos link photographs of the same territory, to original music by Tuur Florizoone. This project is also an opportunity for Harry Gruyaert to review the selection of his images and to rework, using digital tools, the chroma of the images…
Harry Gruyaert : I feel closer to visual arts and cinema than to journalism. I have seen films whose image has taught me more than the color photos I knew at the time. For example, "The Red Desert" by Antonioni. It is also in this film that he painted entire streets to try to create a very specific emotion. When I see the work of photographers who stage their pictures,…

Keith de Lellis Gallery presents Focus on Dance, a group exhibition of photographs that explore the history of dance in the 20th century, with works spanning from the 1920s to the 1960s. The poses, expressions, and moments formed in these photographs were also conceptualized through a phrase of dance, a surrealist notion that holds visually throughout these works. Together and separately, both dance and photography are ever-changing. Curated from a…
Pierre Jamet, a humanist photographer, but also a successful singer, experienced, Rolleiflex slung over his shoulder, the glorious hours of the Front Populaire. With the encouragement of Léo Lagrange, he founded a youth hostel in Belle-Ile-en-mer where talented and enthusiastic young people rubbed shoulders, such as Mouloudji, Daniel Fillipachi or Dina Vierny. Pierre Jamet thus documented this period of freedom, with revolutionary accents, with a rare sensitivity that reveals to…
