Our guest of honor this year will be French photographer Jean-François Mollière :
“Jean-François Mollière, a photographer, freelance reporter and journalist from Mance, has collaborated on numerous books and magazines in the fields of art, sports and architecture. As an artistic director, he also designs photographic installations for public and private places. These commissioned works necessarily bear the imprint of his photographic research.
In 30 years of photographic research, Jean-François Mollière has never ceased to break away from habit, to go where the imagination becomes stronger. To beat back the ineluctability of finitude, to resist, inexorably. We recognize in his photography, images, icons very inspired by cinema and painting.” Valerie Fade-Py
