D’œuvres d’art, Katja Petrowskaja entremêle souvenirs d’enfance, actualités, réflexions esthétiques, historiques ou sociologiques dans une écriture délicate. La photographie d’un mineur du Donbass, un couple de migrants syriens arrivés sur l’île de Lesbos, un autoportrait de Francesca Woodman, une fleur nouvelle à Tchernobyl ou un énigmatique pigeongramme : chaque fois que l’on croit deviner le trajet d’une pensée ou d’un songe, l’autrice déplace notre regard de quelques centimètres à peine, et cela suffit à renverser notre imaginaire. Née en Ukraine, Katja Petrowskaja se met à écrire sur les photographies au début de l’invasion russe en 2014, « par impuissance face à la violence ». Dans une écriture parfaitement limpide, La photo me regardait porte une attention si minutieuse aux choses et aux images qu’elle en fait ressentir une lenteur inédite, opposant au bruit des guerres « des possibilités de silence et de beauté ». Ces textes, écrits entre 2014 et 2021, dessinent « les traits d’une autobiographie dispersée, en éclats » (Jean-Christophe Bailly).

The gesture of pointing is the perfect embodiment of photography’s function as a visual document: an injunction to look at this. In this textual and visual essay, artist Joan Fontcuberta takes the index finger as his point of departure for an insightful and irreverent consideration of photography’s relation to indexicality.

Price:

Summary:
The gesture of pointing is the perfect embodiment of photography’s function as a visual document: an injunction to look at this. In this textual and visual essay, artist Joan Fontcuberta takes the index finger as his point of departure for an insightful and irreverent consideration of photography’s relation to indexicality. He refutes, as well as draws on, Roland Barthes’s suggestion that every photograph tells us ‘'this has been'’ (‘ça a été’), reckoning with the inconvenient multiplicity of thises in any given image. If a photograph constitutes such a statement – as made explicit in images that include a pointing finger – does the camera witness reality or performance? These existential issues are further complicated by the emergence of post-photography and generative AI. In this typically engaging and iconoclastic essay, Fontcuberta destabilises our ideas about the authority and authoriality of images, drawing on psychoanalysis, semiotics, and his own autobiography. His text is interleaved between two compelling visual essays formed of images from the archive of Mexican tabloid Alerta from the 1960s to 1980s, in which the pointing index finger forms a haunting and often humorous through-line.

Toutes les œuvres présentées dans l'exposition « TUBE.PHOTO.DASH » sont reproduites dans la publication à l'horizontale, à l'échelle 1:1. L'image est donc à la taille réelle de l'œuvre. De ce fait, nombreuses d'entre elles sont tronquées sur un détail. L'exposition est documentée dans son intégralité, œuvre par œuvre, dans l'ordre conseillé de la visite. Les prises de vues ont été réalisées le 14 mai 2025, à la veille du vernissage, et ne montrent qu'une certaine réalité. En effet, pendant les cinq mois d'exposition, certaines œuvres vont évoluer, se dégrader ou disparaître. 7,5 x 11 cm

Summary:
Sally Stein has long investigated the role of photography in relation to broader questions of culture and society. This first collection of her selected essays, ''Close-ups from Afar'', brings together essential writings from over five decades, cumulatively demonstrating Stein’s distinctive critical approach to the history and proliferation of photography and its role within mass media and contemporary culture. In this richly illustrated volume, Stein turns her astute eye to diverse topics including the rise of colour photography, the place of California in the history of the medium’s development, and women and photography between feminism’s ‘'waves'’, as well as insightful considerations of a host of photographers from Jacob Riis to Helmut Newton, Ansel Adams to Dorothea Lange, Susan Meiselas to Dawoud Bey. She has consistently sought to challenge readers to think afresh about the social uses of photography and their broader contexts and far-reaching effects.

Summary:
For over a decade, artist and theorist Kwan Queenie Li has been photographing weeds across the world. From Jerusalem to Shanghai, Varanasi to Athens, Cairo to Mexico City, she has trained her attention on these unintended but ubiquitous inhabitants of the contemporary urban sphere, finding them dwelling in corners and cracks, in spaces suspended between uses, in ruins and on construction sites. This essay in image and text proposes a new view of cities that learns from the weed's point of view, dissolving familiar categories and temporalities to see cities as evolving and often undefined spaces, replete with opportunity. Weeds organically defy phenomena that are taken for granted as immovable: walls, borders, history, and prescribed identities. They are registers of the real lives of cities of disuse and neglect, but also freedom and porousness. Out-of-place by definition, they offer a new perspective on the idea of "place" itself, and the ways it shapes and is shaped by its inhabitants.

Le physiologiste Étienne-Jules Marey (1830-1904) a consacré sa carrière à l’étude du vivant en mouvement. Ses recherches l’entraînent dans des explorations expérimentales d’une incroyable diversité. Il a mis en œuvre la « chronophotographie » comme dispositif scientifique. Pionnier du cinéma, de la photographie, il révolutionne la perception visuelle de son époque. Étienne-Jules Marey est une figure incontournable des débuts de la photographie, et incarne également la figure type de l’inventeur, avec une personnalité fascinante. Son œuvre s’inscrit dans une époque historique d’ébullition de la science, instrumentalisée à des fins politiques, dont nous entendons, encore particulièrement aujourd’hui, les résonances.
