An exhibition devoted to David Seidner the artist, better known as a fashion photographer. From the first fragmentary works influenced by his encounter with John Cage to the artists’ portraits and classical nudes, David Seidner appropriates the codes and categorization of Antiquity. Ever the anthropologist, he makes an inventory of human statuary, within which he submerges himself, to the point of becoming his own model. Just as original is the last period of his work, presented here: the Orchids. The frame is no longer a limiting factor as the colours explode and the subject overflows.
