The latest edition of Fisheye has been available on the newsstands since 8th March. On this occasion, L’Oeil de la Photographie offers you the chance to discover this spring edition with an upside-down cover signed by Brendan George Ko.
Family photos occupy a significant place among the images that surround us. They explore the question of intimacy, the representation of happiness, the connection with our close relations, the traces of those who leave us and those that we want to pass on.
They are like those concentrated emotions that make us swing between joy and melancholia. From genealogists to collectors, they invite themselves into our lives beyond the traditional albums. Photographers, film-makers, writers, people who work in the theatre… the artists don’t cease interrogating these images of our intimacy and developing the stories they conceal.
Family photos and their use have changed with the changes in society. From simple documents they change direction towards fiction. As is shown by the photographers who sell us their stories, from Vik Muniz to Carole Benitah, by way of Alain Keler or Louise Narbo.
The Eye of Photography is giving away 10 copies free of charge*!
