On the asphalt flows the Tour …
“The Tour is coming! The time of a dream, of a popular song, the Tour has already passed… The Tour de France? “The legend of cycles” said Antoine Blondin, with his heroes, his mountain angels, his fairground Hercules, convicts of the road. But it is also an unparalleled popular event, a village festival when the caravan passes by with its circus of advertising vehicles.
Last September, in the Alps, photographer Denis Lebioda captured with humor and tenderness the sweet madness that seizes spectators massed on the side of the road. He was interested in how the Tour de France takes possession of the territories it goes thru and … of its inhabitants. A festive, cyclical, mythical and a little crazy spectacle. Decoding in images a traveling pandemonium. ”
