3 days in paris — Les Filles du Calvaire — Event — Slash Paris

Past: November 28 → 30, 2014

For its first involvement in ‘3 days in Paris’, the Filles du Calvaire gallery presents two monographic exhibitions on Mike Brodie and Matt Wilson.

Mike Brodie

Born in Arizona, Mike Brodie roams the American lands to offer brutal — from time to time shocking but always fascinating — images of those four years of travels, train by train, from one encounter to the next.

Matt Wilson

Just like Bruce Chatwin used notebooks to depict in an incredibly sensitive and human vision a today lost Australia, this other Anglo-Saxon globetrotter, Matt Wilson, creates through photographic wanderings ineffable images of the several countries he came across following encounters and the feeling of the moment.
