From 2019-02-21 to 2019-03-29
As part of the collective exhibition "Other Landscapes" displayed by the Mediterranean Center of Photography in Bastia, Massimo Siragusa shows his series "Il Cretto Grande".
This is the result of Siragusa's research on the sculptor Burri's Cretto. A close confrontation with the material in which the spatial references, depth and extent of the Cretto are lost. Siragusa examines the signs left by time, water and sun on the concrete, he seems to want to penetrate the material, restores roughness, cracks, gray and white variations, accidental aspects of plants.

Within the scope of the Printemps de la Photographie in Pomerol, Hugues de Wurstemberger displays his series Farmers (1995).

Niepce Prize laureate in 1990, he undertook a major project on Swiss Alps and...

Up to now, I have been photographing a lot of young girls, bringing back my childhood and adolescence through them. In these
works, the rare masculine figures just played a secondary role.
With this series, I now want to explore the masculine identity in
a moment of transition at the end of adolescence. When and how
does the boy becomes man? What are the signs of this mutation?
How is it different from the previous generations?
I produced this series mainly in St Petersburg where a new generation
of Russians emerges, born at the time of the Soviet Union's
collapse.
Sons of the new middle class, those young Russians are...

This is how it started, in 1976, without any experience and preconceived ideas. She wanted to know who those men, women and transsexuals selling their bodies and that she rubbed shoulders with on the sidewalks of the capital city were. It had been only a few years that Jane Evelyn Atwood, not a photographer yet, had settled in Paris. She then bought her first camera, met Blondine and the other prostitutes of rue des Lombards - that will become Beaubourg neighborhood.
