Table des matières - Bibliothèque de l'Assemblée Nationale, (A-Z). Eléments 1 à 4, Paris
1996
Since the beginning of the 1990s, Gronon has developed a minimal photographic oeuvre that returns to the foundations of the medium: recording reality as it is.
His series all follow the same protocol: a choice of objects that are banal in their use and aesthetics, front view shots, use of a view camera and a scale of 1:1. The photographed object is then cut out and displayed without a frame, in an approach that is as close as possible to objective expression. ln some series, the artist focusses on objects destined to disappear due to the development of digital technology, as is the case of these archive drawers containing the catalogue of the French National Assembly's library.
