In Venice, Yannick Barillon and Eric Nanchen observed a simple, universal gesture: reading. In both public and private spaces, they captured those moments when attention is focused, the body settles down and time slows down: the book or newspaper becomes a concrete presence, an object of silent resistance in the face of speed and digital flux. Tempo Libris questions our contemporary relationship with reading, between the permanence of paper and the mutation of its uses.For their first collaboration, the two photographers cross their gazes in a humanist-inspired black-and-white series, attentive to the attitudes and intimacy of readers.Guest artist Catherine Bolle presents three works that resonate with the world of reading, books and travel.Guided tours: April 10 & 23 and May 8 at 6:00 pm.
