Jill Hartley left Hollywood of the 1970s for a ten year journey in Poland. Between 1977 - 1986, she photographs in Poland one month each year. Her images from there convey a sense of character and tradition, less flamboyant than Western Europe, but nowhere near as bleak as many portraits of the Eastern block countries. n her first book, Jill Hartley, "through the delicacy and fluidity of her photographs, has succeeded in putting us in contact with a bit of Polish spirit like a conductor of emotion" (Suzanne Sélavy). In Hartley's words, "Seeing such expressive faces, without masks, I had the feeling of finding a little theater on every street corner. What was dramatic was the tension in the air, the defiance on all levels of society." Text in French and English.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: NEUF. Pendant une dizaine d'années, de 1977 à 1986, au cours de séjours réguliers, la photographe américaine Jill Hartley s'est établie dans une relation intime avec la Pologne qui vivait à cette époque un basculement historique. Pour elle cependant il ne s'agissait pas de capter l'événement journalistique ou l'actualité historique. Elle rêvait aussi d'un voyage intérieur : aller jusqu'aux racines de la ferveur des Polonais, trouver les signes de leur très profond attachement à la foi et à l'identité nationale. Photographe discrète, Jill Hartley dévoile un " théâtre trouvé ", le tragi-comique du quotidien où les protagonistes se trouvent pris dans leur propre rôle. Par la délicatesse, la justesse et la fluidité de ses images, elle montre la tension extrême d'un peuple toujours prêt à relever le défi pour gagner sa dignité. Elle a voulu distiller l'essence d'une atmosphère particulière et rendre un peu de cette polonité qui est à la source des événements révolutionnaires de ces années-là. Jill Hartley nous laisse à travers cette suite polonaise la vision d'une grande photographe. Poland est son premier livre.During a decade of regular visits to Poland from 1977 to 1986, the American photographer, Jill Hartley, developed a sympathetic attachment to the Poles at a key moment in their country's history. Rather than giving us a journalistic account, she seeks to distill the essence of a particular atmosphere and to render a little of this " Polishness " which was at the source of the revolutionary events of those years. Her pictures discreetly unveil a " found theater " where the protagonists are caught playing their own roles. Delicately, they show the extreme tension of a people always ready to rise up in défense of their dignity. In Poland, her first book, she offers the vision of a remarkable photographer. - Nombre de page(s) : Non paginé 104 p. - Poids : 0g - Langue : fre - Genre : Cinéma, Télévision, Audiovisuel, Presse, Médias.
