ALAIN ADLER

Movie photography between set and screen

Alain Adler (1923-1997) was born in Hungary into a Jewish family that immigrated to Paris in the 1930s. After a past of the Resistance, he became a journalist and then a photographer. Sent to report on the movie sets, he immortalized the emblematic stars of the time. Today, only the period 1954-1964 remains of his work, a decade rich in productions, where the Nouvelle Vague emerged in the wake of and in opposition to the classic post-war cinema.
Developed in collaboration with Guillaume Adler, the photographer's nephew, this exhibition presents 86 contemporary prints in limited and numbered editions.
