Presentation and signing of the book LES ARPENTEURS by Anne Favret & Patrick Manez. « Les Arpenteurs » presents a photographic narrative made at the observatory of the Calern plateau, situated on the heights of Nice. From this place in which they immersed themselves, the two photographers construct the vision of a contemporary utopia in which the production of knowledge becomes a place of the imaginary. » Is there a world in which your past resurfaces as if it were reality? This world is known to fantasy literature lovers and cinephiles, notably admirers of Andrei Tarkovsky or Steven Soderbergh. (…) Anne Favret and Patrick Manez are somewhat like the hero of Solaris. They went to take a closer look at a strange city, the astrometric observatory of the Calern plateau, situated between earth and sky, not so different in this from a space station. » / Michel Poivert Editions LOCO, texts by Michel Poivert and Farrokh Vakili LES ARPENTEURS, 28 x 23 cm, 80 pages, 50 four-colour reproductions, full-paper-covered hardback
