Dissatisfied by photography as it was practiced in his time, Denis Malartre (1952-2015) isolated himself in an apartment over a two-year period between 1986 and 1988, in an attempt to deconstruct photography and create a new visual vocabulary. His “manifesto” work, in the tradition of the Supports/Surface movement, but also reminiscent of Art Brut in its modus operandi, is made up of fifty unique vintage silver prints, exclusively assembled in this limited edition book.
