Attention to Reality

BY HERVÉ MARCHAND
@ VOL 11 ON DEC 02, 2015

The Quinzaine Photographique Nantaise was born in 1997. Since then the festival is held every September. During a month (15 days in the early years) various exhibitions with a common theme are open to the public.

2016 will therefore be the year of its 20th anniversary.

Photography is a medium which is intimately connected to reality and a reproduction tool, but it is above all a form of language that draws its evocative power beyond words. The QPN favors this strong link to reality. The field of exploration of our festival is not disconnected from what matters in our lives.

Making meaningful programming choices, showing the plurality of expressions while drawing parallels between the works exhibited, and in the end producing a coherent and understandable project that we will enjoy sharing.

"As a designer, my daily job is to create products useful for the user. This is a short description of how design may be helpful to prevent clumsy experiences. Most of all, this is how design should be at the user’s service considering industrial issues." Jonathan Hamot

Nuance

BY MARIE GALOPIN
@ VOL 11 ON DEC 02, 2015

"My name is Marie Odile Gaultier, known as Marie Galopin. I was born in Tours. After a fairly ordinary schooling followed a training course in visual communication.
During this training, I first chose to focus on national art then later on Photoshop.
My albums were noticed due to their colours, and enabled me to collaborate with a number of illustrators and sign projects with publishing houses as Delcourt, Lombard, Casterman, Gallimard.
We worked in The ghost of the Opera by Chrisophe Gaultier, Gauguin y maximilien leroy, and on the coloring of the Radio France web doc presenting the Traviatta show at the Bastille Opéra.
This collaborative work as colorist allowed my work to be more visible in various exhibition in France and abroad.
I love talking about my work and regulary give talks in schools.
I have just settled in Nantes and work in a co – working.
My job tends to be solitary so exchanging with others essential to me." Marie Galopin

 Blue-Sky Painting

BY CLAUDE FRANCHETEAU
@ VOL 11 ON DEC 02, 2015

"I was lying on my back, near the river, my eyes staring into the deep blue of the sky. At the edge of my field of vision, I could see the rooves and chimneys of buildings, lost in the vastness and giving meaning to it. What I saw could be a way to paint."
Claude Francheteau paints contemporary and yet paradoxically classical skies.
With the help of modern acrylic paints and digital photography, depicting skies in the ancient way with a modern eye. A sincere kind of blue sky thinking."
Claude Francheteau

When Graphism Meets Words

BY FRANCIS MIZIO
@ VOL 11 ON DEC 02, 2015

Architect and artist Ciancio Alexandre collects forgiven clichés with no known history and transforms them into brand new collages. More than a graphic work, he tries to evoke and create new stories, new emotions.

After a 20x20 in December 2013 about the dangers of creative ideas ( http://www.pechakucha.org/users/francis-mizio ) the humorous novelist, columnist and teacher in communication Francis Mizio has embarking on a perilous exercise : improvise his 20x20 from images created by an illustrator... pictures he has not seen before projection. This challenge will probably prove that ridicule kills... or not. This can also be fine. Or not.
