Description from the seller

2008
Silver print
no. 1/10

Franck Pourcel is a French documentary photographer living and working in Marseille. His work explores the relationships between man, territories and social transformations, often around the Mediterranean basin.

Since the 1990s he has developed a body of work blending documentary photography and poetic writing, with particular attention to landscapes in flux, migrations, urban margins and popular memories.

Among his important series and books:

Stèles de Camargue (2003)
Néoruraux, vivre autrement (2004)
La petite mer des oubliés (2006)
Au crépuscule sur la jeunesse marseillaise
Ulysse ou les constellations (2013)
Comme un souffle de poussière (2015)
Moscou 1994 consacré à la Russie post-soviétique

His photographs are in several French public collections, notably the Bibliothèque nationale de France, the Maison Européenne de la Photographie and the FRAC Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur.

His approach is often described as contemporary humanist photography, between social inquiry and Mediterranean narrative. An exhibition of his work Ulysse ou les constellations was recently shown at Galerie Taylor by José Nicolas.

Seller's Story

THE TAYLOR GALLERY WORKSHOP The Atelier / Galerie Taylor, located at 7, on the eponymous street in the 10th arrondissement in Paris, is a friendly place dedicated to photography. It was created thanks to image enthusiasts, José Nicolas, photographer and manager of the place with the support of Jean Vinégla. Located a stone's throw from Place de la République, between rue du Château-d'eau and rue René-Boulanger, the place is dynamic, atypical and warm, resolutely turned towards sharing and mutual discovery of images at the 'international. The Atelier / Galerie Taylor is familiarly inclined to exhibit film photography while remaining open to the wide range of contemporary imaging techniques. It presents well-known and emerging photographers, with the aim of always surprising and arousing the curiosity of collectors and visitors. Since its opening in September 2019, the Atelier / Galerie Taylor has carved out a good reputation, going from being a confidential place to a showroom recognized by professionals and collectors, both for the choice of its programming and for the quality of the prints on display.
