Ralph Gibson, Dialogue with a Semiotographer

An icon of American photography, Ralph Gibson, born in 1939, has devoted seventy years to the secret language of the photograph, convinced that the image is self-sufficient and that to comment on it would be to betray it.

Scott Offen: The Wife Who Went Over the Wall

One is never too old to make a photograph, or to be one. Past sixty-five, the American photographer Scott Offen publishes his first book, Grace, shortlisted for the 2026 Rencontres d’Arles Book Award. In this black-and-white fairy tale, his wife is no longer a muse to be gazed upon: old and free, she does not merely sit for these images, she signs them.

Madeleine de Sinéty, An Aristocrat Among Ordinary People

She preferred the company of railwaymen to the drawing rooms of her own kind, and chose the daily life of Breton farmers over her own. Madeleine de Sinéty’s work is being shown in full for the first time, at the Jeu de Paume in Paris.

Sara Bennett, Reframing Women Beyond Their Sentence

Former American lawyer Sara Bennett photographed women serving very long prison sentences in New York State, some of whom become eligible for parole after several decades. Looking Inside, published by Kehrer Verlag, follows their daily lives behind bars, then their reconstructed existence after release.
