Romaric Tisserand andou cinco anos a juntar fotografias antigas. Cinco anos em busca do
"acidente deliberado" em imagens perdidas em mercados de velharias, lojas de velharias e
bric-a-brac de Buenos Aires, Madrid, Berlim, Paris, Londres, Roma, Havana, Nova Iorque e Lisboa. O resultado dessa procura é o projecto online e a exposição
I♥Niepce que junta 365 fotografias vernaculares que para Tisserand possuem um valor estético particular e ajudam a contar uma história da fotografia paralela aos cânones. E não só: ajudam a salvar e a valorizar o património fotográfico que fica fora das assinaturas de nomeada, dos selos de qualidade e das tiragens limitadas.

365 PHOTOGRAPHERS / 365 DAYS
Tribute to « Point de vue d’après nature » du Gras« LOVE BOAT » © 2010 AAnonymes Project Despite belonging irremediably to the past, these photographic objects seem to be no longer located in that history and produce the strange sensation that we all share this same humanity. Although the present-day replacement of an image by a simple binary signal renders these afterimages of the past even more desirable, the idea of recovering this lost world unfortunately seems unreal.
The beautiful is always surprising, wrote Rimbaud. Welcome to a world in which it will always be ten past ten, a world whose protagonists all seem to be acting out the same scenario of the pose, of dressing up, of mise en scène, in which impossible realities become convulsive beauties charged with unexpected artistic potentialities.

that there is more accident to it than a man can admit to it in a lifetime,
