Where Children Sleep by James Mollison
Where Children Sleep – stories of diverse children around the world, told through portraits and pictures of their bedrooms. When Fabrica asked me to come up with an idea for engaging with children’s rights, I found myself thinking about my bedroom: how significant it was during my childhood, and how it reflected what I had and who I was. It occurred to me that a way to address some of the complex situations and social issues affecting children would be to look at the bedrooms of children in all kinds of different circumstances. From the start, I didn’t want it just to be about ‘needy children’ in the developing world, but rather something more inclusive, about children from all types of situations. This is a selection from the 56 diptychs in the book.

James Mollison voyage en enfance
Vous étiez plutôt « roi de la cour » ou persécuté, maltraité ou maltraitant ? Qu'il soit heureux ou malheureux, tout le monde à un souvenir en tête de sa cour de récré. En se basant sur un de ses souvenirs marquants, James Mollison est parti photographier les cours de récré du monde entier. Son livre « Recreation » présente 59 photos de ce voyage en enfance.
Pour introduire son propos, James Mollison a eu la bonne idée de demander à Jon Ronson, journaliste et écrivain anglais, de nous raconter ses souvenirs d'enfance. Lui qui, étant plus jeune, faisait partie d'un groupe de rock-indé expérimental, ambiance synthé grinçan... - Livre
James and Other Apes, by James Mollison
James Mollison's large format photographs of the human-like faces of 50 great apes are published alongside an introduction penned by Jane Goodall. Chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans and bonobos, our closest biological relatives, are featured in this series of portraits shot over four years. From animal sanctuaries in Cameroon, Congo, Indonesia, Germany and USA Mollison represents species whose survival is threatenned. The individuality of each ape, warmly portrayed in each portrait, helps raise profound moral and scientific questions such as what it means to be human.

Exhibition « We Want More »: Image-Making and Music in the 21st Century
We Want More explores the role photography and image-production plays in defining music culture today.
Spurred by the advent of digital technologies, both industries have seen a significant change to the channels and processes for ownership and distribution. The traditional frameworks that once upheld a distance between photographers, fans, stars and their labels have collapsed to allow for new routes and territories in which music photography is produced, shared and consumed.

La 11e édition du festival photographique « Les Photaumnales » du 27 septembre au 11 janvier 2015
En 2014, nous fêterons le 60ème anniversaire de ce qui est considéré comme la naissance du rock’n’roll. C’est en effet le 5 juillet 1954 que le jeune Elvis Presley enregistre au studio Sun à Memphis That’s All Right Mama, considéré comme le premier morceau de l’histoire du genre. Cette année-là, le rock’n’roll devient un phénomène culturel et social incontournable.
Les Photaumnales 2014 proposent de revisiter cette histoire à travers la photographie. D’explorer le rapport profond entre l’image, la musique et les univers du rock.
La programmation s’articule autour de 3 grands axes : ThiS iS EngLanD, une plongée dans les paysages du rock’n’roll et la réalité sociale qui l’accompagne, ROCk’S iCOnS, a... - Exposition
The Disciples - James Mollison
In 2005 James Mollison began a four-year project to photograph not the musicians, but the fans of a cross section of popular music acts in both the United States and Europe. Usually denied permission to photograph inside a concert venue, Mollison, assisted by his wife, would set up a temporary studio on the street outside and invite selected concertgoers to pose for individual portraits. Subsequently, he joined together shots from the same concert to create panoramic images that silently captured the zeitgeist of the act's aesthetic. This exhibition presents seven large-scale prints from the fifty-nine photographs that comprise the series.
Mollison approaches his varied photographic projects in the manner of an anthropologist, consistently utilizing a series format to reveal both commonality and distinctions b... - Exposition

James Mollison The Disciples & James and Other Apes
HASTED HUNT is pleased to announce James Mollison - "The Disciples" and "James and Other Apes". The exhibition runs from June 12 to August 16, 2008. There will a reception for the artist on Thursday, June 12th from 6 to 8 PM. This is James Mollison’s international gallery debut.
"The Disciples" are panoramic format portraits of music fans photographed as they leave performances. The groups are distinctive because they have dressed in the style of the singers or bands they have just been watching. These are "fans" all seemingly caught at the same moment in front of a seamless background as they leave concerts ranging from Marilyn Manson to Dolly Parton. The images bear a keen relationship to Richard Avedon’s classic group portraits of the Chicago Seven and the Joint ...
