THE OTHERS - Olivier Culmann
Available under three different covers, this book brings together for the first time the entire The Othersseries that Olivier Culmann began in 2009 while living in India. Through this series of self-portraits, he uses Indian societal codes and the practice of the photo studio to question our relationship to identity, and how social conventions can transform it into a multiplicity of fantasized images. Olivier Culmann is the author, director and actor of this series, developed in 4 phases like a collection of short stories.
Several essays shed light on the many facets of this work:
Christian Caujolle, associate professor at the École Nationale Supérieure Louis-Lumière, critic, independent curator.
François Cheval, director of the Nicéphore Niépce Museum in Chalon-sur-Saône.
Christopher Pinney, Professor of Anthropology and Visual Culture at University College London.
