Indemini – a smuggler village, by Thierry Kleiner
‘Indemini’ is a small village in the Valle Veddasca in the south of Switzerland bordering Italy. A village, which lost 90% of its population in the past 50 years. Due to its geographical position, it is used by smugglers. First they smuggled goods, today it’s a main entrance for clandestins.My intension was to imagine how it must be to creep through the dense wood, through the sparely illuminated alleyways of the village, to gain the ‘promised land’.

TIMEZONE
“Time Zone” is introduced by a group of photographers, living in different time zones.
This project explores, through photography, the sense of time, especially the
instantaneous time of our life and our society. The photographers decided to
share their free interpretations of being in the world, in this common space
called “Time Zone”.

Some of them searched wether inside the intimate or in the collective memory, others worked on sociological and architectural environments. All of them tried to find an authentic sense of time, suspended between the contemporary imposition of the immediacy of consumerism and medias, and the biological schedule of life.

The project is a deep and poetic reaction to the modern evolution of
culture and of humanist values. “Time Zone” is not just a diary of nostalgic photographers, but a group project made out of different visual experiences, gathered under the same open question about time and the concern of the photographer as witness and actor of his contemporary time.
Time Zone is initiated by all Tangophoto’ members and our guests Vincent Delbrouck, Lorenzo Castore, Marc Cellier, SevenTProject and Bamako’s workshop…

Texte de Philippe Cyroulnik
Déchirures de l’Histoire nous conduit dans un cheminement à travers les tragédies du XX ème siècle. Ce livre richement illustré nous invite à découvrir les oeuvres de 21 artistes internationaux, dont les oeuvres font remonter à la surface de notre mémoire ces moments refoulés de notre histoire. Elles fonctionnent comme des déclencheurs, des avertisseurs d’incendie. Ponctué de textes relevant autant de l’histoire de l’art que de la poésie, ce livre interroge la mémoire culturelle et politique de la France. Ce livre nous emporte dans les méandres noirs de notre histoire, à travers les tragédies dont elle a été le théâtre ou l’acteur ; ou encore qui ont marqué profondément son histoire. Ainsi du génocide des juifs par les nazis au franquisme et à la guerre d’Algérie, du stalinisme au Chili de Pinochet de l’eslavage à l’Apartheid et au Rwanda. Sous les néons de nos vies sont tapis les fantômes de nos enfers modernes.
