Fisheye MagazineCollections: open house
Obviously, this was bound to happen to us. More than two years wondering about photography, we were bound to come across the subject of the collection. To choose our files, we put all the themes that pass through our head on small pieces of paper in a jar, we mix and we ask the youngest to draw lots. We were trying to avoid the collection, but there, we had no choice, there was only one left. We had to stick to it. We started with those we like, the authors, these photographers who have things to express through their images. They often have a place of choice in private or public collections, such as those of the Maison Européenne de la Photographie or the Fonds National d'Art Contemporain, which opened their doors to us. And then, we rubbed shoulders with collectors before tackling the psychological aspect of the thing. But the real problem of the collection is that of meaning. What meaning do we give to a collection, as owners or viewers? Is it an artistic or mercantile act to collect? In the end, this theme wasn't so bad. Very nice, in fact. But we'll have to put some papers back in the jar. In this autumn issue, we tried to bring out little nuggets, like Stephan Vanfleteren's incredible work (yes, really) on Charleroi or Olivier Jobard and Samuel Gratacap's long term reports on the migratory phenomena started many years ago. We also have some in-depth papers, like the one on Arab photography, and very poetic portfolios such as the one by Juliette-Andrea Elie or the one by the South Korean artist Mi-Yeon.

Fisheye Magazine #23
Fisheye MagazineMonth of Photography, the bet of Greater Paris
The new Month of Photography plays on openness and curiosity. Beyond the institutional venues and specialized galleries that usually mark out the event, this edition ventures into lesser-known places in the Parisian suburbs with an eclectic program and no less than a hundred exhibitions. The organizers do not produce, they federate, galvanize, highlight and attempt a collective adventure. In these mysteries, we went in search of meaning to offer you our reading. Are we objective? Certainly not, and this is what we propose: a reading of the world, a point of view through photography. We went to look at amateur photography and participative exhibitions: Le Grand Paris vu de nos fenêtres and L'Histoire est à Noue. We were interested in thematic exhibitions that tell us our history: Autophoto and L'Esprit français, 1969-1989, among others. And we went to discover the work of students, these researchers who question photography in their "laboratories". We have also prepared a selection of about twenty exhibitions not to be missed. In this issue, you will also find a focus on India, which explores the photo manifestations of the sub-continent. You'll go into photo novel mode in cities held by the FN, before venturing on Jack Kerouac's last road, making a detour to Upper Volta, and then visiting Stéphane Lavoué's Le Royaume, a new exhibition at the Fisheye Gallery (March 30 to May 6, 2017).

Fisheye Magazine #20
Fisheye MagazineDocumentary photography: Let's get to the stories
This 20th issue of Fisheye brings you a feature on documentary photography, a genre that falls between photojournalism and fine art, with a history and writing in motion. A name that is very present today, that can be found on the posters of festivals and galleries. Fisheye tries to shed light on this part of photography by giving a voice to authors, critics and curators, and by going to see what is happening on social networks. This 20th edition will also take you to a panorama of Belgium photography, for a focus on this small country with great talents. You will also go to Switzerland to take a look at the Images Vevey festival, before going to Hong Kong to discover the images of the new generation presented at Photaumnales, and to make a detour to China for a rereading of the Cultural Revolution. Finally, you can dive back into the underground Paris of the 1980s, make a detour to the neighborhoods of the Paris region to meet new entrepreneurs, or be dazzled by L'Indifférence des étoiles, the discovery portfolio by Julien Mauve. This issue also marks the opening of the Fisheye Gallery. A space dedicated to contemporary authors with a strong personal universe. The very good reception you gave us in Arles this summer, with thousands of visitors and several dozen prints sold, pushes us to continue this experimentation that completes our magazine. More and more of you are following us on social networks, on our website, in newsstands or by subscription, and we hope that this craze will also materialize at the Fisheye Gallery in Paris, which will open its doors on September 29th.

Fisheye Magazine #24
Fisheye MagazineModern Bestiary
Fisheye is a society magazine that deals with the world through the eyes of photographers, and it seemed obvious to us that authors engaged in the representation of animals had new things to tell us. With images that speak above all about us, humans, and the way we project our fears, our weaknesses and our social organizations onto animals. Finding the authors around the globe was a delight, a real treasure hunt that allowed us to find beautiful, funny, moving or inspiring nuggets. Contemporary wildlife photography delivers strong messages, like William Wegman, who signs the cover of this issue. This 24th edition of Fisheye went to the country of the Rising Sun to see what was happening in Kyotographie, the new up-and-coming festival, before exploring the photographic offerings of the Netherlands, as generous as they are varied. Then it was to Sweden, in the suburbs of Malmö, that Martin Bogren took us with his Tractor Boys, offering us, thanks to his smoky images, a dizzying journey into the world of teenagers. But we didn't neglect France, either, as we went to La Gacilly, in Brittany, to discover emerging talents, or to Vichy, where the Modds agency exhibited its French touch at the Portrait(s) festival. This issue also takes you to other territories: Adobe is preparing a revolution that should reshape the landscape in depth; some municipalities are deploying their anti-homeless arsenal, which the Survival Group catalogues in images... But fortunately, Guerlain brings us a touch of poetry with the photos of Sarah Moon, Alice Springs and Dolorès Marat, who take a look at women...
