Sous Les Etoiles Gallery is thrilled to present the first solo exhibition of Ronan Guillou in New York.
Capturing the sudden moments of urban life: Ronan Guillou's photographs reveal peaceful environments disconnected from everyday life. Through the streets, we observe anonymous people in movement, in places that can be at once the origin and the result of a course. Their glances exceed their hopes and dreams.The photographer observes banal locations, awaiting the precise moment for a character to emerge and fit involuntarily into a cinematic backdrop. He achieves an aesthetic without artifice in an intact yet spontaneous balance. Through the precision of his glance, he exposes the force of contrasts combined with the geometry of urban cities. Attracted by this play of form, Ronan Guillou invents a new perspective of seeing what might seem insignificant.Sensitive and generous, the photographer collects coincidences between place and character. "I like this situation observing urban flow, where social and aesthetic differences live together. The city is rich with varied atmospheres, vibrations, and enigma. It offers us situations where characters can become unconscious actors of a sudden harmony." says Guillou.
Ronan Guillou received first prize in 2007 for his series "Passage," presented at the Museum of Decorative Arts of Paris (France), and was nominated in January 2008 for the Fondation HSBC pour la Photographie.

Le 24 mars 1976, le peuple argentin subit un coup d’état militaire. C’est le début d’une ère de répression sanglante, où quelque 30 000 personnes disparaissent et près de 500 bébés sont volés. Mais s’ouvre également une période d’ultralibéralisme d&ea...

Du dépouillement des clichés de Catherine Lambermont se dégage une poésie narrative. Ses images composent une suite d’instants d’observation libre. Son travail réhabilite le continuum qui caractérise chaque frontière. La frontière est le lieu du lien. Entre le corps et l’es...

Simone Nieweg is a photographer of gardens and landscapes. Her work, as it has manifested itself over the past thirty years, knows no other interest. At the same time, a certain serenity hovers over her pictures. In them, nature seems entirely focused on itself. One immediately notices that human beings are absent. The allure of colors and shapes...
« Je ne peux m’empêcher, atteste Gérard Uféras, d’associer la pratique de l’Art à la notion d’amour et de partage ». (extrait de son livre Etats de grâce, éditions du Fantom)
«Egyptian pack» evokes many associations - here are both Petersburgers favorite topic of werewolves (see the movie of E. Yufit «Corpsmen werewolves») and references to the Perm animal style.
Also we can recall British film «The Wicker Man» (1973) with its ritual procession of the man-beasts, ho...
