Narbonne : Corinne Dubreuil, Roland

Preview

Jean Denis Walter has opened the 3rd edition of the Sportfolio festival in Narbonne. This year there are 15 exhibitions that have been organised in the heart of the small commune of Aude. With many impending sporting events this month, such as Roland Garros, Euro 2016 and also the Le Mans 24 Hour Race, L’Oeil de la Photographie is going to share an aspect of Sportfolio 2016 with you every day for six weeks.

Today our focus is on the series “Roland” by Corinne Dubreuil.

The 2016 French Open tennis tournament at Roland Garros will be Corinne Dubreuil’s 26th as a professional photographer, having taken her first photographs there when she was in her early twenties.

For die-hard tennis fan Corinne, “Roland” as it is often known is as familiar as her home or office. She knows the venue so well that she has a sixth sense about where to sit to take her astonishing photographs, where to find the best angles.

This year, the Sportfolio Festival offers the chance to see select images of Corinne’s best work, chosen personally by the photographer, from five of her 25 years at one of tennis’s four most prestigious annual tournaments.

For Corinne, the winner of the 2015 Sportfolio Festival / Nikon Grand Prix, accepted our challenge to select just 13 of her finest images from her five favourite tournaments at Roland Garros.
