For the first time, the L’INAPERCU bookstore is entrusting its curation to a collector.

“A Photograph, a Book from Jérôme Prochiantz’s Collection” presents a selection of 60 photography books featuring reproductions of prints from his collection. Jérôme Prochiantz is no ordinary collector. Passionate about photography, he has amassed over 500 prints over the years, which he has lovingly hung on the walls of his apartment. It is an apartment where icons of photography—such as Robert Mapplethorpe, Arthur Tress, and Nan Goldin—hang side by side with lesser-known artists who have left a deep impression on him.

Jérôme Prochiantz also owns more than 600 photobooks featuring the photographs he has collected. Each book is an extension of his passion for photography. These works thus serve as valuable records of his journey as a collector.

This unique interplay between prints and photobooks offers a fresh perspective on this very personal collection.
