On the occasion of Paris-Photo, Mathieu Vadepied takes part in a masterclass.
Director (Tirailleurs, 2022) and cinematographer, Mathieu Vadepied has worked with Jacques Audiard, François Ozon, Agnès Varda, Olivier Nakache, etc.
During the shooting of Sur mes lèvres, he set out to photograph the members of the artistic and technical team, from the director to the sound effects artist. More than 60 portraits make up the portfolio of a personal work. Giving an extra soul to a team effort, he is interested in each person in order to constitute a whole. With a concern for realism and documentation, Mathieu Vadepied's approach takes on a social dimension. In the manner of an ethnographer, he anchors the shoot in its era and questions contemporaneity. This set of portraits was recently acquired by the Fondation Pathé.
