Anne Rearick, documentary photographer
This photographer, born in 1960 in Idaho, belongs to the great tradition of American documentary photography, that which works on long-term subjects and which deepens its relationship with people and places over time.
In the United States, in the townships of South Africa, in the French Basque Country, in Perche and even in Kazasthan, Anne Rearick's photographs celebrate the daily life of the worlds in which she immerses herself.
Working in film, in black and white, she produces her own enlargements and has belonged to the Vu' agency since 1993. Her new exhibition at the Galerie Clémentine de la Feronnière shows portraits such as Renaissance Madonnas, agricultural scenes like compositions from Miletus or landscapes from American cinema.
When reality becomes a symbol.

“
The Event”, the book by Annie Ernaux at the Théâtre de l’Atelier
The SP Event
After Audrey Diwan whose film
L'Événement
(2021), adapted from the eponymous novel by Annie Ernaux, was awarded the Golden Lion at the 78th edition of the Venice Film Festival, it is the turn of Marianne Basler to seize this autobiographical story.
The 2022 Nobel Prize in Literature retraces 60 years, with the hindsight of several decades, three significant months of his life in 1963-1964.
The story of the lonely path of a young woman who must hide her pregnancy and desperately searches for an angel maker, abortion being prohibited in France at that time.
At a time when the fundamental right of voluntary termination of pregnancy is being reconsidered in many countries, Marianne Basler gives voice to this text, also directing it.
Necessary and upsetting.

Beatrice Di Tenda enters the Paris National Opera
Beatrice di Tenda Franck Ferville
Bellini's opera, created at La Fenice in 1833, entered the repertoire of the Paris National Opera.
True story, Beatrice Di Tenda was a rich woman, who upon the death of her first husband, found herself at the head of an army and a fortune.
As a second marriage, in 1412, she married the Duke of Milan, 20 years her junior, who accused her of adultery.
Subjected to torture, she is decapitated.
Director Peter Sellars, who is tackling an Italian opera for the first time, makes it a charge against barbarism and dictatorship.
The American soprano, Tamara Wilson, is overwhelmingly emotional in a deliberately timeless setting.

Holy Stones of Rome SP
We know the Villa Medici, its history, its legendary director, Balthus, its famous residents, starting with Ingres.
Recently, the writer Matthieu Lindon, in his book

Another opus which has just been published,

The writer Pierre Adrian and the photographer Thierry Bouët set off, each on their own, in search of the stones of Rome, where each ruin seems sacred.
Result: a poetic and above all, lively walk.
