An exhibition of two intimate and political series, one of which has never previously been shown.

"In film, I have yearnings to make documentaries, but every time I set out on that path, somewhere along the line, I veered toward fiction. I wasn't feeling the form, I couldn't find the film. In photography, I take things from life. I capture moods, moments and people."

Alongside his activities as a filmmaker and author, Alain Guiraudie is also a poetic, gimlet-eyed photographer. The represented scenes are, nonetheless, nothing more that what they show, a record of everyday occurrences, revealing timeless provinces and urban outskirts in the raw. He presents elsewheres whose familiarity is not however tinged with oneirism.

With thanks to the Gourdou Boué family for making Hôtel de Bruée available.
