Jean-Christophe BÉCHET

The Memory of a Moment

Exhibition from 10th August to 1st November 2018

L’Espace Soardi et La Manufacture Photographique are delighted to present the exhibition of photographer Jean-Christophe Béchet : 

The Memory of a Moment

 

The Exhibition proposes two series of photographs based on a common theme: remembrance of the past. Jean-Christophe Béchet proposes a photographic view of West Africa, with the Timbuktu series, perhaps… A desert landscape between North Cameroun and Mali, today devastated by war. The second series entitled « Discontinued… » pays hommage to Polaroid 665 films which no longer exist. In today’s numeric times, this black and white series is a souvenir of photography’s past and in its way also evokes landscapes which are no more (“Discontinued…’). 

 

During this double-exhibition, a Photography course is proposed by Jean-Christophe Bechet from 30th October to 1st November 2018 on the theme: 

“Creating a view via a series of photographs”
