François Le Diascorn has compiled here a series of photographs shot in Paris between 1971 and 2014. This is his Paris, the one he explored and photographed for over 40 years. We see his particular style, the legacy of—and a rebellion against—the humanist movement to which he belonged in the 1970s and ‘80s. It’s a style that required exact framing and a play of light and shadows.
Offbeat style , the tone often strange; sometimes humoristic, but always dream-like. The book jumps around chronologically, offering a view of Paris through the decades alwaus with same atmosphere. He photographs Paris by day and Paris by night, Paris by foot, Paris for romantics and Paris for mystery lovers. His previous book, Only in America (Créaphis, 2010), captured the United States in the same way.
