Sidi Mohammed Barkat est enseignant-chercheur associé au CEP ergonomie et écologie humaine de l’université Paris I / Panthéon-Sorbonne. Après des années d’enseignement à l’université, où il s’est occupé essentiellement de questions d’épistémologie des sciences sociales, il a dirigé de 1998 à 2004 un programme de recherche au Collège international de philosophie, à Paris, sur l’image et la condition de l’indigène algérien.
Depuis 2006, il mène une recherche en profondeur sur la transformation contemporaine de l’organisation du travail et ses effets sur le plan des institutions et de celui de la subjectivité humaine. Il est l’auteur du livre Le Corps d’exception, paru en 2005, aux éditions Amsterdam. Aujourd’hui, la plupart de ses publications et interventions publiques portent sur la question du travail.

Claire Chevrier / Sidi Mohammed Barkat / Damien Sausset / Pia Viewing
Claire Chevrier continues her photographic exploration of humanity and its place in the world. After examining the spaces of major megacities, the artist has now focused her photographic research on workplaces. To further this research, she benefited from a residency in the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region in 2010, supported by the Regional Center for Photography. It was during this residency that the photographs in this book were taken. She was thus able to discover the world of large industrial sites, large and small businesses, social assistance organizations, sheltered workshops, and healthcare facilities. This entire field of work is representative of a broader spectrum that transcends the simple geographical location where Claire Chevrier worked. The images she has gathered in this book become emblematic of the world of work today, in France and elsewhere, with its own distinct spaces, its own actors, and its own unique scenography.
The texts by Sidi Mohammed Barkat, Damien Sausset, and Pia Viewing offer an interpretation of Claire Chevrier's photographic work from historical, aesthetic, and philosophical perspectives.
This book was co-published with the Centre Régional de la Photographie Nord-Pas-de-Calais and Silvana Editoriale in Italy.
It received support from the Centre national des arts plastiques, the Musée Nicéphore-Nièpce in Chalon-sur-Saône, and the APEI du Valenciennois.
