    DOSSIER DE PRESSE ARLENE GOTTFRIED L’INSOUCIANCE D’UNE ÉPOQUE 9 JANVIER – 5 MARS 2016 Du mercredi au samedi de 14h à 19h et sur rendez-vous Vernissage le 9 janvier de 14h à 19h ©Arlene Gottfried / Courtesy Les Douches la Galerie Décalé, tendre, libre, intime, joyeux, les qualificatifs ne manquent pas pour résumer ce portrait du New York des années 70-80. Une vie sans contrainte qui nous apparaît à des années lumière de notre quotidien. Ce vent de liberté d’expression avant l’épidémie du sida transparaît dans cette fresque noir et blanc. Nous sommes très heureux d’exposer pour la première fois en France ce travail d’Arlene Gottfried à la galerie. Une grande dame de la photographie qui mérite d’être mieux connue. Commissaires d’exposition : Laurence Cornet et Françoise Morin Contact : Françoise Morin 01 78 94 03 00 - [email protected] ARLENE GOTTFRIED Arlene Gottfried, dont le travail est encore mal connu en France, est avant tout new-yorkaise. Toute son œuvre s’inscrit dans ce monde urbain très spécifique, qui a constamment nourri sa soif d’observation depuis l’enfance. L’exposition organisée aux Douches présente - pour la première fois à Paris – une sélection de photographies de jeunesse, prises dans les années 70 et 80, lorsqu’elle sillonnait sans cesse Brooklyn à la recherche de lieux vivants, de tronches étonnantes, de scènes de rue insolites. C’est une spontanéité détachée d’ambition qui dessine son parcours. Refusant de faire des études, elle a préféré prendre un emploi de bureau pendant la journée et apprendre la photographie en cours du soir.

Courtesy Les Douches la Galerie Ce travail documentaire « Bacalaitos and Fireworks » de la photographe new yorkaise Arlene Gottfried porte sur la communauté portoricaine de New York. Une communauté qu’elle fréquente assidument depuis quarante ans, qui a accompagné ses débuts de photographe et qui est en quelque sorte devenue, au fil du temps, une seconde famille. Dans ce travail couleur, on retrouve les mêmes qualités d’observation que dans sa série « Sometimes Overwhelming » avec ce regard distancié, plein d’empathie et teinté d’humour. Ces photographies s’inscrivent pleinement dans la lignée des travaux de Bruce Wrighton, Tom Arndt ou Homer Sykes que nous défendons à la galerie. Les tirages présentés sont des Cibachrome d’époque, exceptionnels. Avec la complicité de Laurence Cornet, c’est la deuxième exposition que nous consacrons à Arlene Gottfried.

  • Get Ebooks I Remember Me
    Get Ebooks I Remember Me I Remember Me weaves an American tapestry of colorful tales, beginning with the timid musings of a young boy on the verge of becoming a man in the Jewish section of New York's Bronx neighborhood, and bringing us up to date with the mature insight of a man whose remarkable trajectory has sent him to the top of Hollywood's elite and sparked the careers of dozens of household-name entertainers. Along the way, Reiner treats his loyal readers to everything from the ordinary to the truly unforgettable: a family trip to a nude beach, French lessons with Mel Brooks, a chapter dedicated to Rinnie the dog who unfortunately mistakes a skunk for a cat, a surprise early-morning visit from the McCarthy era FBI, a heart wrenching story of loss describing the day of his wife's passing, and then in a revealing chapter of Reiner's character, he describes "the most theatrically triumphant day" of his young career. Through his memoir, we meet the man behind the success in roles rarely seen before: son to Romanian immigrant Irving Reiner, husband to fellow Bronx native and renowned singer Estelle Reiner, father to the prolific filmmaker Rob Reiner, Dr. Annie Reiner psychoanalyst & gifted singer, and Lucas Reiner, a globally recognized fine artist. Written with the same combination of playful jest and modest humility that has garnered the love and respect of fans for generations, I Remember Me remembers the creative and inspiring journey of one of the most revered comedic icons of the past hundred years.
