Industrie

Stéphane  Asseline / Philippe  Ayrault / Laurent  Kruszyk / Chritian  Decamps / Jean-Bernard  Vialles

For 40 years, the Île-de-France inventory has sought to change perceptions of industry, applying to factories the same photographic standards that had previously been reserved for cathedrals. Gradually, this iconography of buildings, from brownfield sites to redevelopment, has been enriched by depictions of work and a determined focus on people in their relationship to work.

Drawing on thousands of images, this third volume in the “Ré-inventaire” collection offers a new and unconventional journey through this industrial adventure, a sort of historical overview of forty years of photographic practice. For more than 30 years, the photographers of the Inventory have been following and contributing to the research of industrial heritage researchers throughout the country.

What are we looking at? What do we see?
