The photographic series cORpuS, created by the self-taught French artist Louis Blanc, is a fascinating journey into the universe of human body representation. Born in 2011, after a series of experiments and personal reflections intensified by Blanc's switch to professional DSLR equipment, cORpuS stands out for its ability to capture the complexity, beauty, and sometimes the strangeness of the human body. Each photograph in cORpuS is the result of a unique creative process, often starting with a vague idea and evolving through a series of trials and errors until it reaches a form of expression that defies conventions. Blanc employs self-portrait techniques to stage his own body in contortions that push the limits of bodily expression, using a timer and remote control to capture these intense moments of solitude and self-discovery. The neutral background of the images highlights the main subject: the body itself, distorted, stretched, sometimes posed unsettlingly, but always captivating. It's an exploration of the human form that invites reflection on the human condition, on fragility, strength, beauty, and anxiety that can be expressed through the sole language of the body. Since its launch, cORpuS has generated keen interest and has been exhibited in over 40 international exhibitions, from France to Japan, and from New York to Italy and Russia. This series has not only been critically acclaimed in publications like La Provence and Réponses Photo but has also been recognized in international media, including Monaco Culture and the Tribune de Genève. Through cORpuS, Louis Blanc does more than capture images; he provokes a dialogue with the viewer, a dialogue where the contours of the body speak of deep emotions, untold stories, and beauty in imperfection. This series is a testament to Blanc's artistic vision, a vision that continues to evolve and captivate a global audience.

In today's society, we often find ourselves chained by different problems such as social networks, over-consumption, work, unhealthy relationships. Emancipation and self-fulfillment are therefore key elements needed in the pursuit of happiness. To achieve this, however, we must face many obstacles, challenges, and hinders. The objective of the new ongoing Hinders collection is to show how much humanity is blinded by everyday issues not realizing those chains around.

Women's realities and societal pressures are hidden in a world dominated by constructed ideals of beauty and femininity. Goldstein's collection "In The Dollhouse" deconstructs the façade of domestic perfection by presenting scenes where iconic dolls, such as Barbie, grapple with issues like aging, body image, and societal expectations.

The "Figures" collection, envisioned by the talented French photographer Manon Deck-Sablon, stands as a remarkable artistic quest to blur the lines between the human body and the environmental setting it occupies. By intentionally choosing naked, anonymized subjects free from any sexual or identity attributions, Deck-Sablon turns these bodies into foundational elements of a larger canvas, skillfully playing with the dynamics of presence and absence, of occupied space and void. These models, through their mere presence in the work, transcend their personal individuality to meld into geometric compositions where the dialogue between the physical and the spatial achieves a profound and captivating visual resonance. Beyond merely celebrating nudity in its most stripped-down form, "Figures" engages the viewer in a deep introspection on the intrinsic relationship between the self and the space it inhabits. Through her lens, Manon Deck-Sablon prompts us to rethink our understanding of the environment, whether natural or constructed, orchestrating a visual symphony where the strange meets the familiar, where harmony springs from the unexpected. This series is not just an exploration of the human form but also a meditation on our integration and interaction with the world around us. "Figures" invites us to a reevaluation of our perception of space and landscape, offering a harmonious fusion between the abstract and the tangible, between chaos and order, thus awakening a new awareness of the inherent beauty in our symbiotic relationship with nature.

A photographic collection that exposes the paradoxes and contradictions within our society. Through enigmatic symbols and anachronistic visuals, each chapter explores themes such as erotic purity, immodest religion, unhealthy innocence, and ugly beauty, revealing humanity's dark side and decline.

As humanity grapples with its contradictions, "Les Mondes Insensés" prompts viewers to confront the complexities of our existence and the paradoxes inherent in our society.

The captivating theme of the love of the gods has inspired timeless works of art. The legendary union between Eros and Psyche has been immortalized in sculptures and frescoes, symbolizing the unique alliance between divine and human love. In Greek mythology, the amorous escapades of Jupiter with the beautiful Io, and the sad story of Artemis and Orion, hunting together before their tragic fate, were recurring subjects for artists. Hades' abduction of Persephone, leading to his subterranean reign, was also depicted in powerful works. These artistic representations span the ages, capturing the eternal complexity of divine love and immortalizing mythological tales of passion, betrayal and destiny. Mathilde Oscar reinterprets these age-old themes in a series of mixed-media self-portraits.

Merging various themes inspired by classical painting and masters like Ingres, Vermeer, Botticelli, and more, Pop Classicisme offers a reinterpretation of mythology and the nude, blending off-beat humor with simple beauty.

"The Shape of Things" collection by French photographer Manon Deck-Sablon is a bold exploration of the relationship between the human body and its surroundings. Leveraging the skills and sensitivity gained from her education in architecture and landscape, Deck-Sablon crafts scenes where nude, anonymous bodies devoid of any specific sexualization or gender interact with their environment in absurd and poetic ways. In this series, the models transcend their personal identity to become abstract and disjointed forms. They blend into architectural or natural landscapes, altering the conventional perception of these spaces. The human presence, thus staged, prompts a reflection on our relationship with an environment sometimes perceived as hostile or alien. Paradoxically, these nude bodies and unusual spatial interactions enable a reclamation of urban and natural space, offering new perspectives and breathing life and meaning back into the environment. "The Shape of Things" invites viewers to ponder on humanity's place within its milieu and how our presence alters and is altered by the spaces we inhabit. Through her works, Manon Deck-Sablon challenges the boundaries between artifice and nature, the constructed and the innate, unveiling underlying beauty in the simplicity of forms and interactions. Already acknowledged for her innovative approach, Manon Deck-Sablon has showcased her work in collective and individual exhibitions, as well as various art and architecture publications. Compared to artist Spencer Tunick for her management of bodies in space, Deck-Sablon distinguishes herself through a preference for geometric compositions involving a limited number of models, thus enhancing the impact of each body on the surrounding space. "The Shape of Things" celebrates the interplay between the human body and the world around it, revealing the power of bodily expression in redefining our relationship with the environment. It is an invitation to contemplate and rethink the dynamics between humans and space, between abstraction and materiality, between chaos and order.

The art collection "Into The Box" emerges as a poignant reflection on our ability to find creativity and inspiration even in the most constrained moments. As the artistic world navigates through a period marked by uncertainty, this collection illustrates the perseverance and ingenuity of artists who transform isolation into a profound source of inspiration. Conceived by the visual artist Idan Wizen during the second lockdown in France, "Into The Box" was born from a context where access to the outside world and the public was restricted. Deprived of the presence of his usual photographic subjects, Wizen then turned to himself and his collaborators as models, exploring the intimate and universal dimensions of the human experience in times of crisis. The box, the central element of this collection, symbolizes the confined space in which we were all forced to find ourselves. Through this metaphor, the works explore a range of intensely felt emotions during confinement - from frustration and anger to contemplation and apathy. Each piece captures the essence of forced introspection, revealing the complex and often contradictory emotions that coexist within us. "Into The Box" also poses a provocative question: is our feeling of confinement solely due to the Covid-19 pandemic, or is it amplified by the barriers we erect ourselves? By exploring this idea, the collection invites reflection on how our personal "comfort bubbles" can sometimes turn into prisons, limiting our emotional experience and our relationship with the outside world. Through "Into The Box," Idan Wizen does not merely document a historically challenging period; he offers a mirror in which we can all look at ourselves, question our own resilience, and our ability to find light, even in the deepest darkness. This collection is an invitation to embrace all our emotions and to recognize the beauty and strength that emerge from vulnerability.

In her compelling collection "Exploration of Self," artist and photographer Brooke Shaden delves deep into self-examination and discovery.

"Exploration of Self" sees Shaden navigating through the shadows and light of her identity, weaving visual stories that transcend mere representation. She creates dreamlike worlds where every element, texture, and color contributes to the narrative of deep introspection. Her images become catalysts for personal reflection, inviting viewers to embark on their own soul-searching journey. This collection signifies a period of transition and growth for Shaden, utilizing photography as a tool to confront and embrace the hidden facets of her personality. "Exploration of Self" epitomizes her ability to turn vulnerability into strength, revealing raw beauty in the act of self-revelation. Each image is a step towards understanding her fears, desires, and dreams, in a journey that is both personal and universal. Known for her innovative approach and impeccable technique, Brooke Shaden continues to captivate and inspire with "Exploration of Self." The collection has been featured in numerous galleries and praised for its emotional depth and unique aesthetic. Through this work, Shaden not only discovers herself; she extends an invitation for all to embark on a similar quest for self-exploration, once again proving why she is considered a significant voice in contemporary art.

Idan Wizen wanted to represent an intergenerational dialogue between the audience of today and the representation of the children of the future. Far from a pessimistic vision of the future, it expresses the urgent need to sound the alarm for the sake of our planet and the children to come. Through this photographic series, he urges the viewer to understand that his actions and inactions have consequences in a future going well beyond his existence and that he has a responsibility to choose beyond his immediate interest. The underlying question of this work is of course the irreversibility of our choices and our actions: will one day be too late to reverse the course of things and can we eternally put the problems to tomorrow?

Who's Who is the directory of people who are supposed to be important in the life of a country. The first English edition dates from 1849, the French from 1953. Arnaud Baumann's more recent, fresher, more unbuttoned Who's Who began in the '80s, when as a young photographer, he began to frame in his viewfinder people who mattered, particularly to him. For example, the libertarian squad of the newspaper Hara-Kiri, of which there remains a spirit, a disruptive and ill-bred body of work, a legacy, an offspring, a tragedy - the Charlie Hebdo massacre in January 2015 - and a book-bible, Dans le ventre de Hara Kiri (Éd. La Martinière, 2015), a tumultuous echography produced by Arnaud Baumann with his long-time alter ego, photographer Xavier Lambours. The difference between the ordinary Who's Who and his is that in his, it's the texts that are brief and secondary, and the photos that are big and important.

Idan Wizen's "Virtual Street Art" collection boldly merges urban architecture with raw humanity. In this innovative series, Wizen superimposes nude bodies from his Purity collection of the "Un Anonyme Nu Dans Le Salon" project onto architectural shots of cities, integrating these human forms onto building facades as if they were street art murals. These digital artworks, which blend the rigidity of urban structures with the vulnerability of the flesh, invite a critical reflection on the visibility of nudity in public spaces. They highlight a stark contrast with the trivialization of violence and weapons, shedding light on how society prioritizes and reacts to different forms of representation. "Virtual Street Art" is not just a tribute to the beauty of the human body; it is also a provocative commentary on the social and cultural norms that govern our perception of what is acceptable and what is not. By placing nudity at the heart of streets, Wizen challenges taboos and sparks a necessary dialogue on freedom of expression and the boundaries of censorship in art and public life. Explore this collection, where each image is an invitation to question the codes of our society and to reassess our comfort with nudity, so vividly contrasted against the everyday symbols of conflict and confrontation.

Explore the intricate relationship between nature, insects, and humanity's impact on the planet. Through stunning imagery, this collection delves into the potential consequences of environmental degradation, particularly focusing on the plight of bees and other insects. Mathilde Oscar presents a thought-provoking narrative, juxtaposing themes of beauty and repugnance in a rococo-tinged post-apocalyptic setting. Viewers are challenged to confront their fears and reconsider their perceptions of insects, as the photographs blur the line between reality and fiction.

“Who’s That Nude in the Living Room?” is a unique artistic project which aims to constitute the largest photographic series ever made representing humanity as it is, in its most natural state, its nudity and its diversity. Developed by photographer Idan Wizen, this concept of photographic art aims to bring together thousands of models, volunteers of all ages and from all social categories to constitute a huge gallery of portraits of men and women of today who have agreed to show themselves as they are, nude. These photographs, in their multitude and the originality of each one of them, their dynamism and their naturalness, show to universal human beauty, far beyond the restrictive socio-cultural and aesthetic criteria of our time. Anyone who poses in his simplest device participates by his own personality, his differences and his particularities in the universality of humankind. Idan Wizen has chosen to exacerbate the true authenticity of each of his models, breaking their possible masks, exposing through each of them, the simple and nude beauty of human nature. He also defies the usual criteria of nude photography with his shocking photos, with a strong artistic bias, where the spontaneous provocation of one model can interact with the cheerful and naive expression of another or the modest revelation of a third. Through the uniformity of the beauty criteria of our society as well as its modes of expression, “Who’s That Nude in the Living Room?” opposes the multitude, the variety, the strength of character, the movement, the surprising and the natural to the state gross of mankind. Each photo is unique just like its model and never touched up. This inevitably challenges us and creates in us a curious feeling of closeness, of belonging. Because these models are all of us. Moved or upset by the freshness of a smile, the roundness of a curve, a playful look, a cry of defiance or the fragility of a silhouette, we would like to keep one of these photos with us, the image of a being among the multitude of the human race, a nude in the living room!

A collection that delves into humanity's relationship with nature and the potential for transformation. Through striking imagery and allegorical storytelling, the collection highlights the consequences of environmental degradation and the urgent need for change. Mathilde Oscar presents a narrative of hope and renewal, where individuals have the power to metamorphose and become tomorrow's superheroes. The series symbolizes a journey of self-discovery and harmony with nature, urging viewers to embrace empathy and unity to restore balance to the world. "Metamorphoses" serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of collective action in preserving our environment and reconnecting with our true essence.
