"He allowed all these French folk, who are usually never heard, to speak, these anonymous people whose bodies, postures, words, at times offensive, at times hesitant, describe a geography on a human scale, a territory where man stands tall, no matter the boundaries."
From a text by Natacha Wolinski

Stimultania Strasbourg present, grouped under the title RESISTANTS, the two exhibitions LOW TIDE and KANAK.
Through his photography and a practise that remains documentary, Denis Rouvre testifies of life's fragments and of a daily that mixes despair, lonelyness and doubt. He pays tribute to this people which resist for living ang fight for surviving.
Models for a day, hero of the day, this unknown people are sharing an ordinary life and an extraordinary fate. They silently embody under the photographe's look, in courageous figures, heroics, they impulse life and represent a kind of hope. They are right there. Resistant. Survivols. Still standing.
