Photographic revelation

with Laurence Bonvin

Stammering This involves taking an idea, a project in progress or a project that has already been completed but not satisfactorily, and pushing it further, both from a conceptual and/or aesthetic point of view, as well as from a production point of view. To experience what can be improved in a project compared to a first realisation. Revisiting a classic. It is also about testing ideas, taking risks, pushing a process further, experimenting.

Starting from the premise that the book constitutes both an alternative practice to the exhibition and an alternative exhibition practice - alternative exhibition practices insofar as the book and the printed word are essentially modes of visibility of art; alternative practices to the exhibition because this means of visibility is very different from what is usually called an exhibition - we consider the book to be the medium that is perfectly suited to soon-to-be-graduated photographers.

The students develop a project over the whole semester, on a freely chosen subject, by submitting it regularly to the critical eye and advice of the professor. Argumentation and analysis are stimulated. The aim is to examine the issues involved in photography as an author and to develop a personal expression, which could potentially lead to the students' diploma work. Particular attention is paid to the argumentation of the work, at the different stages of its development.

Based on projects around a common theme, the students develop a personal and in-depth work over the entire semester. The project must be developed, clarified, modified if necessary, and enriched throughout the semester, as the students conduct research, reflections, and experiments, and as they consult with the professor. During these regular consultations, the students address the various aspects related to the conception, production and realization of a photographic work...

The mere mention of the term animal already raises questions; the most general of all is the following: do we, as humans, belong to this kingdom, or have we become totally alien to it ? The aim here is not to answer such a question, but to understand that the divide between humans and non-humans is extremely strong in our society - the only one in human history that has forged such a boundary. Yet the animal is everywhere in our daily lives. There is the animal we eat, or refuse to eat, the one we domesticate, the one that lives in our - its? - environment, the one we hunt, the one we cage in zoos, the one we study, the one we protect, etc... There is now talk of the sixth mass extinction of biodiversity. This context, which is ours today, complicates our relationship with living beings and with animals in particular. We are forced to rethink our relationship with others and become aware that life is a complex network in which we do not have all the space. Moreover, recent scientific research has exploded the Cartesian theory of the animal-machine and demonstrated that we are not the only ones to have developed an interiority. During this year-long project, students were asked to produce a series that addresses one or more of the themes associated with the animal world, in the form of their choice but using reality as raw material.

Accrochage Photographique

with Laurence Bonvin

How can we move from the two-dimensionality of the image to the multi-dimensionality of the experience ? How can we introduce notions of space, volume, tactility and sensuality into images and the way they are presented ? If images can allow us to create new links with the world, how can we possibly move away from an essentially technically based vision, a perspectivist and anthropocentric vision ? How can we imagine and represent what a representation detached from our human point of view would be ? In our culture a separation has been established between culture and nature. This dichotomy has determined the way we see, understand and represent the world around us. How can we create images of the living, of "nature" that go beyond this distinction and this point of view ? Images that contribute to recreating a link with what is nonhuman: the plant, the mineral, the animal, the cosmic. What does an animal, a plant, an object, a tree, the earth feel and perceive ?

Reference to the masters of the past (even if irreverent) is a recurrent com- posant of modern and contemporary artistic approaches. (Postmodernism; Situationism, Appropriationism) Quotation, homage, parody, remake, pastiche, remix, détournement, recycling, mashup, appropriation, re-enactment, simulationism, found footage, sample, palimpsest - appropriations are numerous and touch all fields.

Credo

with Matthieu Gafsou

The aim of the Centre intercantonal d’information sur les croyances (CIC) is to map the religious diversity of our regions and to explain in a neutral way how the cantonal communities function. The director, Brigitte Knobel, contacted the ECAL to create a visual cartography of the communities. Second-year students were asked to photograph the project. They worked throughout the year on an assigned religious community, selected beforehand according to geographical and diversity criteria.

"Corps-concept" Exhibition

"Corps-concept" Exhibition

with Natacha Lesueur

“Corps-concept” is an exhibition that reflects on contemporary conceptions of the body that underpin numerous ideological movements, including transhumanism. Issues regarding the body-object, the body-draft, body-commodity and the anthropological consequences of these different “conceptional reductions” will be examined. The aim of the exhibition is to offer an unprecedented insight into our current utopias and on the technoscientific driving force that irrigates these. From 21 My to 19 November at the Maison d'Ailleurs in Yverdon-les-Bains. Opening reception 21 May from 5pm. At the invitation of Marc Atallah, director and curator of the Maison d’Ailleurs, first-year Bachelor degree Photography students at the ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne tackled the very contemporary issue of transhumanism. For two semesters, they confronted this school of thought which advocates the advent of a new human being and contends that the progress of science and technology makes it possible to transcend human nature. The project was led by Natacha Lesueur, a French artist-photographer and teacher at the ECAL. This exhibition presents a selection of photographic and filmic works, reflecting the transdisciplinary training programme offered by the ECAL. By contrasting different visions on ways of shaping the humanity of tomorrow, these projects express the numerous controversies and debates regarding transhumanism, as well as its accompanying ideologies. Exhibition opens from 21 May to 19 November 2017 Tu-Sun 11am-6pm 50% discount for ECAL students upon presentation of their legitimation card.

"Walk With Pierre Hardy" in Tokyo

"Walk With Pierre Hardy" in Tokyo

with Philippe Jarrigeon

PIERRE HARDY & the ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne present the exhibition Walk with Pierre Hardy . Fifteen iconic models by the designer were visually reinterpreted by the students of Bachelor Photography under the direction of Philippe Jarrigeon. Additionally, a luxurious special publication marks the occasion. Presented for the first time in November 2016 during Paris Photo at the PIERRE HARDY boutique (Palais Bourbon), this exhibition was a huge success. Pierre Hardy thought that it was absolutely necessary to share this event with his Japanese friends. Therefore, the exhibition will be discovered from 18 to 22 May in the exhibition space related to the PIERRE HARDY boutique in Tokyo. “I really enjoyed interacting with the students. At ECAL, my role was very different from that of a teacher coaching the students on their work – as I myself was the subject I knew the stuff inside out! Just show me half a centimetre of a heel and I instantly recognise the model which I created”, says Pierre Hardy. The ECAL Bachelor Photography students thus worked on various collections produced by the Parisian designer in the past fifteen years in order to give them a new visual interpretation. Photographer Philippe Jarrigeon comments on the method he chose to conduct this workshop at ECAL: “Together with PIERRE HARDY’s team we selected fifteen pairs of shoes in the archives – a purely practical decision which allowed us to keep the models as long as we wanted at ECAL. In addition, this allowed students to free themselves from seasonal trends. At the beginning of the workshop in October 2015, each student got a model on which to work by drawing lots”. This project allowed the students to question the relationship between photography and footwear, and by extension to confront the interconnection between photography and fashion. Milo Keller, Head of Photography at ECAL, observes that “Students, working without any business constraints in that case, are less formatted than a professional and therefore often offer unexpected approaches”. The results are indeed surprising and offbeat, sometimes even provocative or poetic, but always treat the original creations with respect.

ECAL presents 3 photographers at Circulation(s)

by Maxime Guyon

CAL is the only school invited by the Festival Circulation(s) at the 104 in Paris until the 7 of August. “Skeuomorphic” is a body of work created by three ECAL Bachelor Photography graduates, Jacques-Aurélien Brun, Maxime Guyon and Jean-Vincent Simonet, and set designed with Marceau Avogadro and Anaïs Benoit Dignac, Bachelor Industrial Design graduates. An observational practice of the physical and contextual form of the photography medium has took place in the past year. Whether they record abstract visuals, re-appropriate commercial aesthetic discourse or playing with a whole delightful digitized chaos, the three artists here ended their process with the question of the persistently shifting modes of the photography media today. Their natural collaboration came in the investigation of physicality in photography. The apprehension of the image as an object dissipate the initial narratives from the three distinct bodies of work, but also attempts to expand the visual experiment on the current extreme ubiquity context that undergoes this medium. www.festival-circulations.com/about-us/ www.104.fr

Exhibition "1020 Renens"

1020 Renens Exhibition photo 03 mars – 23 mars 2016 Place du Marché, Renens It’s all a question of time. A photograph is shot in a fraction of a second, in one instant. A city changes, it transforms; and to be defined into a new image, it could take years, decades or centuries. During one year, the photographer Nicolas Faure has worked together with the 15 students of the 3rd year photography class at ECAL in Renens. They explored various themes such as the documentary of an African community or the life of teenagers in schools or at the pool as well as the every day life at the office or the intimacy of retired people. The images, assembled in a book as a tribute to Nicolas Faure, are pieces of reality that are sometimes raw and sometimes reworked. They let our mind travel around even when we are still here, in Switzerland, in Renens.

Do you speak Touriste ?

Le détournement du cliché est ainsi exploré par cette exposition collective, qui réunit seize artistes suisses, et par un concours organisé en collaboration avec l’ECAL. A travers un parcours thématique dans les salles du musée, les photographes décryptent, par des tirages, des projections et des installations pour certaines inédites, les fonctions et les codes d’une habitude très généralisée. Face au Cervin et aux pyramides de Gizeh, entre voyage imaginaire et réalité fantasmée, les artistes nous suggèrent que le regard touristique ne se réduit pas à quelques clichés. L’exposition associe des créateurs confirmés, comme Nicolas Savary ou Adrien Missika, mais aussi des artistes en devenir pour mieux questionner les pratiques et les stéréotypes visuels solidement ancrés chez les touristes que nous sommes. Concours ECAL Dans le cadre de l’exposition  do you speak touriste ? Quand les photographes décodent le cliché  qui se tiendra au Musée d’art de Pully du 6 mars au 11 mai, un  c oncours inédit  a été organisé en collaboration avec l’ECAL sur le thème du détournement du cliché par l’artiste. Pendant le semestre d’hiver 2013, les étudiants de Laurence Bonvin, photographe suisse de renom et enseignante à l’ECAL depuis 2002, ont eu pour mission d’interroger la notion d’image touristique sur le territoire helvétique, du Cervin au jet d’eau de Genève en passant par les Alpes et Lavaux. Les mises en forme codifiées et analogiques de ces images (cartes postales, albums, dépliants,…) ont été placées au cœur de la réflexion. Au terme de ce travail, deux lauréats ont été primés et se sont vus attribuer, pendant la durée de l’exposition do you speak touriste , deux salles du musée pour la présentation de leur projet photographique. Une sélection d’autres projets occupe une troisième salle. Le jury Le jury était composé de Delphine Rivier, directrice du Musée d'art de Pully, Milo Keller, responsable du Bachelor Photographie de l'ECAL, Sébastien Leseigneur, commissaire associé du Centre de la Photographie de Genève et Pauline Martin, historienne de l’art et commissaire de la Nuit des images au Musée de l’Elysée. Les lauréats Ont reçu le 1 er  prix ex aequo: - Thibault JOUVENT, pour son installation d’images en mouvement à la facture froide et distante, exécutée avec une précision et une douceur très helvétiques. - Hadrien HÄNER, pour son installation Super 8, projetant en alternance des cartes postales du jet d’eau de Genève et des timbres représentant le Cervin. En plus des deux lauréats, une sélection de travaux a particulièrement retenu l'attention du jury. Ainsi, les projets de Coline AMOS, Alexandre HAEFELI, Benoît JEANNET, Maxime GUYON sont également exposés dans une salle du musée. Notons également qu'une série de cartes postales est éditée à partir d’une sélection d’images issues du projet de Julien ROUX.
