Celebrating the unexpected is what Martine Franck strives to do throughout her work. This is evidenced by her photographic practice, characterized by her attraction to the snapshot, despite the care taken with composition and framing. This monograph, the most comprehensive to date, is edited by Agnès Sire. The selection of images is the result of a collaboration with Martine Franck, before her death. The chronological structure highlights the photographer's unique approach, whose black and white images are marked by geometry, curves, and lines. Among her portraits of personalities and artists, her photographs of the May 1968 demonstrations and carnivals, her study of aging, and her numerous travels to the United States, the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Asia, we find her emblematic photos and others lesser-known. Recounting her commitment, her encounters, her ideas, and the elegance that characterizes her so well.
