Exhibition catalog of the Albert-Kahn Museum.

This collective work offers a new look at the collections of still and animated images of the Albert-Kahn Museum in dialogue with its landscaped garden and with the disappeared garden of Cap-Martin, Albert Kahn's Mediterranean residence, as well as at the films produced within the framework of the "laboratory of life" established in the Boulogne garden, directed by the specialist in scientific cinema Jean Comandon.

Richly illustrated with numerous color and black and white photographs – autochromes, photograms, filmcolors, etc. from the collections of the Albert-Kahn Museum, the book also presents a collection of works specially created for the occasion by contemporary artists.

A lively textual contribution at the crossroads of the history of photography, cinema and gardens punctuates and illuminates this immersive and colorful stroll.
