Charles Negre / Sidewalks Stills
Following in the footsteps of the American photographer Irving Penn, Charles Negre presents a series of still lifes captured in medium format at the end of Parisian markets. The artist moves his camera out into the field, capturing crushed fruit and vegetables, fish heads, marks on the stalls and on the ground, and sublimating them. Using the codes of advertising, Sidewalk Stills makes food waste and over-consumption visible in a rather poetic and melancholy way.
