Summary:
‘Conference of the Birds’ shows an outtake from an analysis of the correlation between time and place and of the historical Iranian landscape. How do places appear and disappear? How do we attach meaning to a certain site and in what way photography can deal with deconstructed icons in comparison to the (a-)historical palm tree sticking out its tongue? A small desert(...)

Summary:
‘Conference of the Birds’ shows an outtake from an analysis of the correlation between time and place and of the historical Iranian landscape. How do places appear and disappear? How do we attach meaning to a certain site and in what way photography can deal with deconstructed icons in comparison to the (a-)historical palm tree sticking out its tongue? A small desert village has been photographed obsessively and captured from every angle possible. Elements are positioned in the frame so that they are repeated in the next. The photographs move in closely to the landscape of a palm tree village. The village is small and serene. Palm trees appear all over the place, they are burned, bend, dry and dead. They resemble pillars and artefacts that are left behind on various historical sites and they can be associated with land art installations.

Summary:
Ce catalogue accompagne l’exposition Emmanuelle Léonard. « Le déploiement / Deployment », produite par la Galerie de l’UQAM. Présentée du 1 novembre 2019 au 25 janvier 2020, elle présentait un corpus amorcé par Emmanuelle Léonard en 2018 dans le cadre d’une résidence de recherche dans le Grand Nord canadien au sein du Programme d’arts des Forces canadiennes. L’exposition proposait également deux projets amorcés en Colombie, lesquels offrent une résonance surprenante avec la réalité des militaires de l’Arctique et tissent des liens entre les hémisphères Nord et Sud. Poursuivant le travail photographique et vidéographique réalisé depuis quinze ans sur des groupes hiérarchisés issus des systèmes social, judiciaire, militaire et religieux, l’artiste continue de s’intéresser ici aux fonctions d’autorité et aux mécanismes de détournement qu’elles engendrent.

Summary:
'Los Angeles Standards' is a photographic portrait of Los Angeles which offers a way to view the city through 15 typologies which identify this unique city environment.The 1300 photographs were taken between 2008 and 2012 by French architects Caroline and Cyril Desroche during the years they live in Los Angeles. They are organized in order to compare and contrast the design archetypes that they have identified, including Mini-Malls, Billboards, Freeways, Parking Lots and Stilt Houses. Each picture is accompanied by its address for research and travel. This book aims to identify various standard elements which visually define Los Angeles. While the city is in a continual state of flux, becoming denser and re-defining its urban landscape every day, this book is also a record of the influence of its urban history on its present identity.

Summary:
'L’Atlas des Régions Naturelles' (ARN) se donne pour objet la création d’une archive photographique documentant la grande diversité - mais aussi leur uniformisation progressive - des paysages et plus particulièrement des bâtis que l’on rencontre sur le territoire français. Commencé en 2017, il devrait être achevé en 2024. Cette carte représente les quatre-cents-cinquante régions naturelles de France, petites entités territoriales aux frontières souvent indécises, renvoient à l’histoire pré-révolutionnaire, elles précèdent donc les départements actuels et n’ont aucune valeur administrative. Cependant, même s’il est impossible d’en tracer les frontières exactes, leurs limites géologiques, historiques et culturelles persistent à dessiner, dans une sorte de tradition orale, les contours d’une géographie dont la vivacité demeure bien réelle. Ainsi, Semur-en-Auxois, Sucy-en-Brie, Bourg-en-Bresse ou Verdun-en-Lauragais ont conservé dans leur toponyme le nom de l’ancienne région à laquelle elles appartenaient.
