    Harmonies

    Festival La Gacilly-Baden Photo 2020
    BESUCHERZENTRUM VISITOR CENTER
    Baden bei Wien (AUSTRIA)

    From 2020-07-14 to 2020-10-26



    « Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night”. By quoting Edgar Allan Poe to present her Sleep Elevation series, photographer Maia Flore, member of VU', lays her cards on the table. She could also have quoted Lewis Caroll, as her images displayed in this selection are imbued with poetry and fantasy.
    Especially trained at the prestigious Gobelins School of Paris, she combines photography and her mastery of editing to create bridges between real and imaginary. Soothing images of floating bodies through the sky, as feathers taking us through the looking glass.
    A style exercise about...

    Fbg du Lac 71
    2502 Bienne (SWITZERLAND)

    From 2020-07-04 to 2020-09-06



    « Narratives from Algeria » aims to present an overview of contemporary Algerian photography in its plurality, its richness and its diversity. The collective exhibition brings together the work of over 30 photographers with strong ties to Algeria and displays a slideshow of Bruno Boudjelal's "Jours Intranquilles" (Restless Days) which gathers trips in Algeria from 1993 to 2003.

    "These comings and goings, even if I'm no longer with the family, have as many links between here and there, between my history and that of Algeria, between autobiography and photography; so many crossings, so many attempts to go beyond a blurring of the real,...

    The world’s curiosities of Françoise Huguier

    Musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac
    37 Quai Branly
    75007 Paris (FRANCE)
    +33 (0)1 56 61 70 00

    From 2020-06-30 to 2020-10-11




    In reference to her photographic work, Françoise Huguier is presenting a selection of unusual, poetic objects she has gleaned throughout the world. The exhibition is designed like a travel journal.

    “I keep these objects—sources of inspiration for my photographs—at my home like a travel journal. Taking a photograph is first an immaterial concept: I look then take a snapshot. Whereas for an object with volume, I immediately adopt a story that is not my own. […] This cabinet of curiosities bringing together my objects and photographs is both my microcosm and my way of fathoming the world's intimate secrets; an encounter between the...

    Portugal, rising from its ashes

    Festival La Gacilly-Baden Photo 2020
    DOBLHOFFPARK
    Baden bei Wien (AUSTRIA)

    From 2020-07-14 to 2020-10-26



    In Portugal, many agricultural lands were more and more neglected by owners, what gave birth to huge forest areas.
    The paper industry being substantial and money-making in the country, an intensive monoculture of maritime pines and mainly of eucalyptus rapidly developed. Eucalyptus are thus required for paper production but are also highly invasive and inflammable.
    Coping for a few years with intense heatwaves in summer, Portugal is also confronted to the increase in forest fires. They are more and more intense, more and more devastatingÂ… and more and more deadly.

    For the Fondation Yves Rocher, Spanish photographer Juan Manuel Castro...

    François Fontaine

    Cosmos

    Cité de l'image de Clervaux
    Arcades II, montée de l'église
    L-9710 Clervaux (LUXEMBOURG)
    +352 26 90 34 96

    From 2019-09-17 to 2020-09-16



    To enter the pictorial world of François Fontaine, there is no way around the Big Screen and film.
    Cinematography works with a collection of animated images, whereas its cousin photography is based on the static image. But both media rely on
    a common source: light.
    Light fuels the universe. It braves this deep and anonymous space with its creative force. The look to the stars arises from every man's desire to discover the origin of all existence. Light offers an opening into this infinite unknown. It guides our gaze into the other world.
