Paris Photo 2015 : Torbjørn Rødland and Bruno Serralongue at Air de Paris

For its first participation to Paris Photo, Air de Paris will present the works of Torbjørn Rødland (born 1970, Norway, lives and works in Los Angeles) and Bruno Serralongue (born 1968, France, lives and works in Paris). The works of Bruno Serralongue explore the role of the photographer and its position vis-à-vis the subject. Often political, his photographs are involved in all aspects of the production of the image. Thus, his work is as much an investigation into the political moment as an investigation of the representation itself. Works will be presented from the series on migrants in Calais, ongoing since 2006. In the photographs of Torbjørn Rødland, reality is constantly questioned, renegotiated. At first sight mundane, situations put in place by Rødland appear strange, often deliciously acidic and offset. They explore a wide range of emotional possibilities. A form of psychological realism? Recent works are selected by the artist for this exhibition.
