For the 20th anniversary of the Lyon photography center, Le Bleu du Ciel, its director Gilles Verneret revisits the photographers who have exhibited there and, over time, defined a certain style of documentary photography. This book highlights the creativity and diversity of documentary photography through the works of nearly 100 photographers, many of whom are French, but also from around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since the 1990s and 2000s, the humanities and social sciences have become a new point of reference for photographers. By thwarting or sometimes openly criticizing the institution of photojournalism, photographers affirm the values of investigation, fieldwork, economic and social analysis, and political decryption. Our contemporaries are inventing a poetics of responsibility, turning documentary photography into a genre open to the imagination of a world to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition to historical texts by Gilles Verneret and Michel Poivert presenting different aspects of this new documentary photography, this book also includes texts written by the photographers featured.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":23948,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"nature":[1281],"statutdeslivres":[],"class_list":["post-23932","livre","type-livre","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","nature-photographie-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
