The Promenades Photographiques of Vendôme are on until August 27th.
We have chosen to present Christine Spengler‘s exhibition to you.
Christine Spengler, a French photographer, was raised in Madrid after her parents’ divorce. From the age of 7, her uncle Louis, a great aficionado, regularly took her to bullfights, while her aunt Marcelle introduced her to painting by introducing her to the masterpieces of the Prado. The child was immediately fascinated by Goya, who will become her master when she discovers at the age of 24 her vocation as a war correspondent in Chad. At the heart of the Rochambeau carousel, on red walls evoking the arenas of her childhood, hang surreal color photographs that the artist took each time she returned from reporting “to exorcise the pain of wars”.
