Overview

Martine Franck: One Day to the Next includes more than one hundred images that capture singular visual moments with elegance and wit. Presented here is a selection of this highly regarded photographer's favorite images from the last thirty years, covering subject matter from the inquisitiveness of childhood to the quirks of old age, from strange and rugged landscapes to the rhythms of crowds. Whether photographing artists and writers such as Michel Foucault and Marc Chagall, or Tibetan Buddhist refugees in India and Nepal, Franck sees photography as "a frontier, a barrier of sorts that one is constantly breaking down so as to get closer to the subject."

Booknews

Published in conjunction with the exhibition at the Maison Europ<'e>en de la Photographie in Paris, this volume contains about 100 of photographer Franck's favorite images that not only capture singular moments, but are also notable for their formal rigor, wit, and sensitivity. The photographs are grouped thematically to cover subject matter ranging from childhood to old age, and from landscapes to crowds. The volume includes two current projects (one of images made in Ireland, and the other of Tibetan Buddhist refugees) as well as correspondence between Franck and author and art critic John Berger.
