This year, Leica Camera is presenting a new exhibition by Stéphane Duroy and Paulo Nozolino, organized by Paul Cottin. The works, produced at the same time by the two photographers during a residency at the GwinZegal arts centre in northern Brittany, look into the hidden nooks and crannies of our history – the echoes of a world silently disappearing, the heritage of a rural society that is fading away – using them to sound out the values that govern our digitalized, anthropocentric and globalized contemporary societies. These two photographers have in common their pared down style , their careful selection of images and their aversion to the sensational. Two austere, uncompromising gazes. Two major artists.
This work will debut at Paris Photo.
Stéphane Duroy authored numerous books : L’Europe du Silence, Unknown, Distress and Geisterbild published by Filigranes.
Paulo Nozolino published several books : Penumbra (Scalo), Far Cry, Makulatur and Bone Lonely with Steidl.
