DOCUMENTATION CÉLINE DUVAL
Impresiones paisajes
22 September - 1 November 2015

Sala Rekalde presents the exhibition documentation céline duval (Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France, 1974) within the framework of Mapamundistas 2015 / Antipostales and in collaboration with the Institut Français, Bilbao.
As its name indicates, documentation céline duval involves a construction and deconstruction project for a big archive of images. The show Impresiones paisajes sets against one another various works whose point of departure is the observation of collections of postcards. The series Puntos de vistas brings together images of benches in a range of settings, while the series ¡Visto! dwells on passers-by as they gaze at the photographer. Seeing or being seen, being within or outside of an image, facing landscape or facing a postcard of landscape, these are some of the postures that seem possible and question both the gaze and the body of the observer.
