" Far from making us live in the mode of gratuitous fantasy,
The image seems to deliver us deeply to ourselves .
Maurice Blanchot,
The two versions of the imagination
“We live in a maelstrom of images.
Popular images, advertising, from here and elsewhere,
hidden images, revealed, images that tell us.
All of them are, more or less, a mirrored part.
of a reality too great to embrace.
The frame of the image isolates the part from the whole (pars pro toto).
It is an arrangement, a distancing.
The frame creates an off-screen space, giving access to a fictional space...
A step aside that tears us away from the flow of the world.
It allows you to see differently.
All around, the summoning and juxtaposition of images creates astonishment (oh!), a questioning (why?) or even an enigma (but still…).
How can we understand the presence of these images, how can we understand “what is” without any intention?
How can we grasp chance, radically, in a way that is absolutely impervious to any ideological recuperation and any morality?
And here comes the insignificant, so real.
Annick Mischler - January 2021
• Outdoors: choose locations where people take a walk and/or where there is a lot of foot traffic: in the centre of the town, near a school, in a public garden or along a walking trail... And if possible, on flat ground!
• Indoors: reception hall, office, waiting room, dining room, meeting room - choose the best-lit space.
CAUTION: If the space where you are displaying the exhibition is slightly damp, we recommend purchasing eight simple frames of the same size (50 x 70 cm) to protect the prints.
The papers we have chosen for printing our exhibitions meet two essential criteria, among others: beautiful colour rendering and durability.
• Exhibitions intended for outdoor display are printed on high-quality 130gsm blue-backed paper.
• For exhibitions intended for indoor display, we have chosen a 550gsm semi-rigid paper to which we attach a simple hanging system. These panels can therefore be hung on a single nail or framed if they are to be displayed in a slightly damp location.
For outdoor displays, our poster formats have been chosen to best suit “election” billboards:
• Large outdoor format (84 x 119 cm) for maximum impact. With one poster per billboard, you will need eight in total.
• Small outdoor format (63 x 93 cm) so that two posters can be placed on the same billboard... meaning you only need to install four billboards.
• Indoor exhibition (50 x 70 cm): 8 prints to hang on 5 linear metres of free wall space.
