PARIS DARK LIGHT BY MICHEL SETBOUN

著名攝影師Michel Setboun首次在香港,通過巴黎黑色的光明 (PARIS DARK LIGHT) 系列的標誌性照片,帶領公眾前所未有地親身體會漫步巴黎的橫街窄巷。

儼若在Rapho圖片新聞社工作時互相來往的兩名享譽盛名的攝影師Brassi和Robert Doisneau,Michel Setboun 誠邀公眾享受穿梭於巴黎黑暗與光明中的一段密切旅程。每一張照片都是一首詩,有如巴黎真正的愛的宣言。

藝術家在巴黎各區巧妙地調度場景,讓參觀者被強力地推入一處神秘的環境氣氛,自我身份遺忘於影子中。藝術家的靈感來自光,因為光明創造這些無限的變調,產生重新認識該城市的感覺。

通過一系列的照片,巴黎機場完美無缺地融入巴黎黑色的光明,並使整屆展覽會變得更完美。其實,着落巴黎機場,不已經就是生活在巴黎。

For the first time in Hong Kong, the famous photographer Michel Setboun offers to the public an unprecedented stroll in the streets in Paris through iconic photographs coming out of the PARIS DARK LIGHT “Paris Lumière Noire” collection.

Like Brassaï and Robert Doisneau whom he rubbed shoulders with at the time, Michel Setboun invites the public to an intimate trip to the city of Paris glamorized between dark and light.

True declaration of love in Paris, each photograph is a poem. The artist thrusts the spectator into a mysterious atmosphere, yet still allows the spectator to identify with the shadows staged all along the districts.

PARIS AEROPORT totally embraces “PARIS DARK LIGHT”

with a series of photographs which bring a wonderful perfection to the exhibition, because touching down at the PARIS AEROPORT is like already living in Paris. ABOUT MICHEL SETBOUN
