Pascal Baril’s People Portraits at Cannes
For more than forty years, Pascal Baril has frequented the backstage areas of the Cannes Festival. His photojournalist eye lets him capture much more than the mere glow of the red carpet. Behind the glamour and the spotlights, he reveals moments of grace, emotion, and truth.
Actors, directors, singers and personalities from the art world pass before his lens. From Madonna to Marion Cotillard, from Isabelle Adjani to Penélope Cruz, his portraits attest to a rare closeness with those who shape the imaginary of contemporary cinema.
Shot in black and white or in color depending on the era, these photographs today constitute a sensitive memory of the Cannes Film Festival and its icons. Between press photography and author portrait, Pascal Baril offers us a view that is at once elegant, humane and timeless on the celebrities of his time.
This series would find perfect place in a summer exhibition at the Atelier/Gallery Taylor dedicated to “Icons of Cannes.”
