About the artwork
This black-and-white photograph shows a stationary car. It's parked in front of a building resembling a factory. The model of the car, the setting and the black and white suggest that the photo was taken in another era. Here, Olivier Meynard plays with our perception of the image.
Expert opinion
This photograph is typical of Olivier Maynard's work, in which he experiments with a particular object.
About the artist
Olivier Maynard is a French photographer. After graduating from the Beaux arts de Sète in sculpture, it was at stockings that he began to understand volumes, light and composition. In 1992, he graduated from the ETPA photography school in Toulouse and began a career as an advertising, food and corporate photographer. It was only thirty years later that he changed his field of play to devote himself to art. His photos, which sublimate the talents and trades of others, become, by and for themselves, works of art, and now take their place in galleries. Such is the case with his "Color&Food" exhibition, which was shown in his studio in Sète, as well as in a gallery in Luxembourg.
