In situ, dans les coulisses de l’Opéra de Paris
This book presents an original vision of the Paris Opera Ballet, through the lens of Pierre-Elie de Pibrac. A first part of black and white photographs tells the daily life of the dancers, from the rehearsal rooms to the stage, during an entire season. Accompanying his photographic approach, the great names of dance take their turn to speak, offering an original and timeless testimony of life at the Palais Garnier : Aurélie Dupont, Nicolas Le Riche, Eleonora Abbagnato, Benjamin Millepied… Finally, these are two purely artistic color series that the photographer has worked on to transcribe the emotion felt “In Situ”. The quality of the printing, the cover’s coating, the paper hand and the bookmark ribbon will delight photography and dance enthusiasts or simply Paris lovers who want to discover the secrets of the Palais Garnier.
