This book is a panomara from the 1970s to the present day in which photographer Bernard Plossu offers an intimate, sensory vision of the world, where man and the organic are juxtaposed. This vision directed by sensation, he translates using the Fresson print technique.

The particular texture and subtle rendering of this pigment-based process, invented in the 19th century by the family of the same name, is a perfect match for the photographer’s no-nonsense focus, which aims to distance the spectacular and the grandiloquent.
The longevity of Plossu’s collaboration with the Fresson family over three generations is an integral part of the work itself.
A coffee-table book for a sublime corpus: Plossu’s color work restored in all its subtlety and gentleness.

See you Tuesday, November 10 on the Canal Saint-Martin!
