To mark the 150th anniversary of Impressionism, photographer Jonathan Bertin pays tribute to this artistic movement with a two-year project based in Paris and his native Normandy.
IMPRESSIONISM - To mark the 150th anniversary of the Impressionist movement, Jonathan Bertin spent two years working between Paris and Normandy, his birthplace and the cradle of the movement, photographing the places of his daily life, the banal scenes, the mundane scenes, the limestone cliffs and lively waves of the Côte d'Albâtre. A collection of delicate images, a work of particular materiality and, above all, a tribute.
JONATHAN BERTIN - originally from Normandy, now based in Paris. Author of a first book (New York - Quest), he presents this new work as part of a 12-city tour of France, followed by several major exhibitions in Normandy at the Abbatiale de Rouen and in Amsterdam with the Homecoming Gallery.
EDITORS' NOTE - The cover is particularly delicate, in velvet. The book reads vertically like a sketchbook, and features a remarkable printing technique. Several special editions have been created for the book, including a perfume, “Jardin en bord de mer” for the collector's edition, in collaboration with FLAIR Paris.
