Nous avons fait un très beau voyage

Bernard Plossu, Françoise Nuñez, Jacques Borgetto, Sophie Zénon

Laura Serani

All the photographers gathered here intend the trip as we heard before. With plenty of time and space around with the sewing room for the imagination and reality, far from the tourist flow and the syndrome collection sites.
Jacques Borgetto travels, travels and photography for years in Latin America, a land to which he belongs, and who holds it returns with force and precision, a little inclined to view images.
Sophie Zenon, world traveler, has repeatedly traveled to Asia, including Mongolia, Siberia and Far East Cambodia found, revisited, in his images.
Further away from the exotic and closer to the poetic language, with Françoise and Bernard Plossu Nuñez, the journey becomes sentimental. The places are just excuses and decorations, the real destination is the other. From Mexico to Italy, Greece to Andalusia, their eyes, starting from the same point of view, give a stereoscopic vision, where photography is as much a reflection of inner vision than reality.

Bernard Plossu

Photographe

Plossu Bernard, born in South Vietnam in 1945, he grew up surrounded by photographs of the desert taken by his father when he went skiing on the dunes of the Sahara in 1937 with Roger Frisian-Roche. Modesty, sensuality, emotion, joy, here is what is the “sap” that already permeate the images of the self that landed in Mexico in 1965 and 1967 to join his grandparents. Travel as a Mexican issue 15 years later its editor Claude Nori. A book that, as the creator of Ed. Contrejour has become a sort of bible for a generation suddenly uninhibited by his freedom of tone and its intimate and poetic vision.
