About

Published to coincide with the exhibition of the "E-1027 + 123" series at Rencontres d'Arles 2025, this book presents the entire series of large-format photographs, which will be accompanied by a text by art historian Nathalie Herschdorfer.
From Berlin's construction sites to Fernand Pouillon's 1950s housing projects in Algiers, Stéphane Couturier's work rethinks the relationship between the photographic medium and its supposedly objective nature. Using a principle of combining several shots, the artist proposes, with a great diversity of forms and colors, true photographic constructions, close to abstraction, while keeping a strong documentary anchoring - thus creating a new visual architecture.
