Bruno Decharme, Anne-Françoise Rouche
Flammarion, 2022
Cet ouvrage a pour ambition de dévoiler au lecteur d’autres facettes de la « photographie brute » à travers les œuvres, pour la plupart inédites, d’une centaine d’artistes de différents pays. Il parcourt un champ peu exploré par les recherches sur l’art brut et s’ouvre à des pratiques novatrices de la photographie, à d’autres voies empruntées par ce même médium, renouvelant notre regard sur celui-ci. Par le biais de photographies, de photomontages ou encore de photocollages, ces créateurs, généralement autodidactes, dévoilent leurs univers personnels à travers des œuvres produites en dehors des circuits artistiques conventionnels. Les textes de Barbara Safarova, s’inscrivent en miroir réfléchissant les choix du collectionneur et sont complétés par le regard différent du critique d’art Bruno Dubreuil. Ce livre fait suite à un premier volume paru à l’occasion de l’exposition Photo | Brut collection Bruno Decharme & compagnie aux Rencontres de la photographie d’Arles en 2019.

Tim Benton
Lars Mueller, 2013
In LC FOTO: Le Corbusier Secret Photographer, Tim Benton reflects on the famous architect’s use of photography, starting with the young Charles-Edouard Jeanneret’s attempts to take professional photographs during his travels in central Europe, the Balkans, Turkey, Greece, and Italy. While Le Corbusier always claimed that he saw no virtue in taking photographs, he actually bought three cameras and took several hundred photographs between 1907 and 1917, many of them of publishable quality. In 1936 he acquired a 16mm movie camera and took 120 sequences of film and nearly 6,000 photographs with it.
This previously unpublished material is the basis for the publication. It reveals Le Corbusier to be a sensitive and brilliant manipulator of a wide range of photographic styles. LC FOTO: Le Corbusier Secret Photographer provides dramatically new insights into Le Corbusier’s visual imagination, his changing attitudes towards nature and materials in the 1930s, and his distrust of progress. The publication contains QR codes to enable readers to access seven film sequences shot by Le Corbusier.

Jean-François Jaussaud
Albin Michel, 1991
Jean-François Jaussaud a rencontré Louise Bourgeois en 1994 dans son atelier à Brooklyn. Passé au crible de ses questions, le photographe est finalement adoubé par l'artiste. Un premier rendez-vous a lieu au printemps 1995, mais à une seule condition: détruire les images si celles-ci ne lui plaisent pas... Jaussaud accepte et passe le "test". Il obtient alors carte blanche pour photographier librement l'atelier et la maison de Chelsea. Il reviendra pendant onze ans. Ces images rares montrent l'une des plus grandes artistes contemporaines dans son intimité, au cœur de son œuvre.

Silver + Chrome, Mitch Epstein
Ryan Spencer
Steidl, 2022
Between 1973 and ’76, Mitch Epstein photographed in American cities—New York, Los Angeles and New Orleans, among others. In 1973 he was initially shooting in black-and-white as a student of Garry Winogrand when he asked his teacher, “Why not color?” With Winogrand’s blessing, Epstein shot his first rolls of Kodachrome. Silver + Chrome is a chronicle of his three years alternating between color and black-and-white, before eventually committing to color. This book contains Epstein’s earliest work, virtually none of which has been seen before. In these kinetic tableaux, the artist’s exuberance is tamed, just barely, by his formal intelligence. He depicts American city life as it undergoes taboo-shattering sexual liberation, economic crises and the repercussions of a boondoggle war in Vietnam, immersing us in the urban chaos of this complicated time.

Damarice Amao, Amanda Maddox, Karolina Ziebinska-Lewandowska
J. Paul Getty Museum, 2020
Dora Maar (born Henriette Théodora Markovitch, 1907–1997) was active at the height of Surrealism in France. She was recognized as a key member of the movement and maintained professional relationships with many of its prominent figures, such as André Breton, Brassaï, Henri Cartier-Bresson, and Man Ray. However, her standing as the one-time muse and mistress of Pablo Picasso—his famous “Weeping Woman”— has long eclipsed her creative output and minimized her influence. Richly illustrated with 240 key works showcasing Maar’s inimitable acumen as a photographer, this book examines the full arc of her career for the very first time. Subjects include her innovative commercial and fashion photography, approach to the nude and eroticism, engagement with political groups, interest in socially concerned photography, affiliation with the Surrealist movement, and hitherto unknown work from her reclusive late career, providing a dynamic and multifaceted examination of an important artist.
This volume is published to accompany an exhibition on view at the Centre Pompidou Paris, France June 5 to July 29, 2019; the Tate Modern London, United Kingdom November 19, 2019, to March 15, 2020; and the J. Paul Getty Museum at the Getty Center April 21 to July 26, 2020.
