The exhibition Les apparitions brings together works with an ethereal aesthetic that capture fleeting moments in the city. The shadows of a tree with twisting branches projected on the asphalt of a street (Jocelyne Alloucherie), a seemingly empty park (Angela Grauerholz), a hand (Michael Floment), and a makeshift hut set in a deserted landscape (Tadashi Kawamata) are offered to us as subjective images. They are as much about the photographic medium, with its visual language (framing, time, light, photographic blur, and so on) as about urban spaces and the meandering paths that they suggest.
The images selected for this exhibition, by evoking imagination, enigmas, and perhaps even phantasms (who knows?), invite us into a space of dialogue that is constantly renewed due to its unresolved nature. Because of this, the images make thoughts emerge and ideas appear.
