AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Mother and Children at Night
Moscow, 1994
Gelatin silver print
No. 3/10
130 x 40
Franck Pourcel is a French documentary photographer who lives and works in Marseille. His work explores the relationships between people, territories, and social change, often focusing on the Mediterranean basin.
Since the 1990s, he has developed a body of work that blends documentary photography with poetic writing, with particular attention to changing landscapes, migration, urban margins, and popular memory.
Among his major series and books:
Camargue Stelae (2003)
Neo-Rurals: Living Differently (2004)
The Little Sea of the Forgotten (2006)
At Dusk, on Marseille’s Youth
Ulysses or the Constellations (2013)
Like a Breath of Dust (2015)
Moscow 1994, devoted to post-Soviet Russia
His photographs are held in several French public collections, including the National Library of France, the Maison Européenne de la Photographie, and FRAC Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur.
His approach is often described as contemporary humanist photography, somewhere between social inquiry and Mediterranean storytelling. An exhibition of his work Ulysses or the Constellations was recently presented 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.
