A Boat on the Marne River, 2009

Gérard Rondeau is a lover of the Marne. When he mentions it, the words clash with enthusiasm. So much so that he would almost apologize. He is bubbling. And for good reason, it is a story that lasts. For almost 4 years.

Morocco, tribute to Delacroix, 1999

In Morocco, Delacroix left to paint and draw "from nature", to experience lights, colors, shapes, horses and riders, faces and bodies.

The Silence, And Nothing Around, 1994

By organizing, on white sheets, the dialogue between photographs captured in everyday life of this wartime and the words emerging from this wartime situation, we do not claim to add a new stone to the factual narrative.

Out of Frame, 1993

Under the light of a neon light, an outstretched hand brushes the headdress of a woman with sidelong gaze, one of the characters in The Fortune Teller, painted by Georges de La Tour three centuries ago.

Missions, Doctors, up to the other side of the world, 1989

It all started in Orly on December 22, 1989. That evening, news of Ceaucescu's fall was announced. An anesthetist friend hired by Médecins du Monde drove me into high gear at Orly airport: there, part of Hall number 2 is occupied by a group of adventurous doctors.

Chroniques d’un portraitiste, 1986

Gérard Rondeau made dozens of portraits. These women and men are photographed motionless, as if slowly. Rondeau gives them time to get used to his presence and, if possible, to forget its indiscretion.

The Chemin des dames (1981-2003) 

In 1981, Gérard Rondeau began working alongside French writer Yves Gibeau in the harsh landscapes of the Chemin des Dames, staging ground of several major battles that took place during WWI.
