Losing the North Diptychs I was born in northern France, where I lived from childhood until I was 19, in a small working-class town between slag heaps and glassworks. Sixteen years later, when my daughter was born, I returned with my camera to capture the faces of those who had never really known me as I was. My country, my family, our otherness. I look at them today with tenderness,…

Our beautiful Camargue, a treasure on borrowed time? (Here is an overview of my work with 15 photographs. Full report 60 photographs). "How beautiful is my Camargue". I've said this phrase so many times since my earliest childhood. As a native of the magnificent Gard department, my parents introduced me to it at a very early age. This land of the Petite Camargue is very dear to my heart... I…
Shipyards For a long time, I thought about how I could tackle this subject, which was close to my heart, but which I found so difficult to tackle in a rational and, if possible, original photographic study. In memory of all those thousands of workers involved in shipbuilding for several generations, who had lost their tools of the trade, with the direct consequence of losing their jobs to shipyard workers…

Quatre Instants de Nudité / Four Moments of Nudity I have been taking photos with models, mainly female, for a very long time. Why only photos of women? Surely because women are a great source of inspiration for me. Certainly also, for this book, I wanted to idealize everything that makes their differences, their beauty, their sweetness, their emotions, their power of seduction. I also appreciate this exchange, this trust, even this complicity…

Today, opening at the Fondation Manuel Rivera-Ortiz. The exhibition presented by FOTOHAUS and curated by Marc Barbey follows Amin El Dib’s unique path of brutal deconstruction in his images.

The concept is to capture the ephemeral nature and fragility of life. This exhibition allows you…

The title of the exhibition clearly circumscribes a geography, that of the French Riviera to Bordighera, Italy, which Helmut Newton photographed from the 1960s until his death in the early 2000s. “Newton, Riviera” is a pretext for a new look at the work of one of the 20th century’s foremost photographers through a fascinating collection of images, some that have become famous, others rarely displayed to the public. “I love…

My project was born in July 2019, during the Rencontres Photographiques d'Arles 2019. I was in the Atrium hotel talking with visitors about an exhibition for which I was the curator and I noticed the behavior of the customers of the hotel who were completely indifferent to the staff. No one saw, everyone was completely unaware of this shadow staff, this service staff to ensure everyone's safety and comfort. The…
