le FIPA pour Detroit un rêve en ruines

by sbrothier
Détroit, une ville autrefois qualifiée de "Paris du midwest américain" semble avoir été frappée par la pire des tempêtes. Tous les fléaux qui affectent certaines grandes villes nord-américaines sont ici réunis : déclin des grandes industries (notamment celle de l'automobile), ségrégation raciale et crise des hypothèques.

Ruins are the visible symbols and landmarks of our societies and their changes, small pieces of history in suspension. The state of ruin is essentially a temporary situation that happens at some point, the volatile result of change of era and the fall of empires. This fragility, the time elapsed but even so running fast, lead us to watch them one very last time : being dismayed, or admire, making us wondering about the permanence of things. Photography appeared to us as a modest way to keep a little bit of this ephemeral state.
