Sous la serre (Under the greenhouse), 40 years of photography at CRP/

Exhibition from 30 September to 04 December 2022
at Les Thermes of Saint-Amand-les-Eaux (59)

In this setting, the exhibition becomes a parenthesis, a suspended time conducive to enjoyment. If they each have their own style, the four photographers share a passion for plants. They praise the slowness imposed by the rhythm of the countryside, that of the grass growing under their feet. For a whole year, Bernard Joseph photographs the delicacy of his father’s garden, a former coal miner. Edith Roux, commissioned to work on the Hainaut cross-border nature park, records the evolution of the same landscape season after season thanks to the principle of renewal. As for Olivier Mann, he extends the utopia that photography offers him, to freeze time through his mastery of the elements. The orchid of Denis Brihat, master of the print, signs the apotheosis of this tribute to the fragility of nature and its sensitive beauty.
