La nouvelle - F0201 Photograph

ABOUT LA NOUVELLE - F0201 ------------------------------------------------------------- La nouvelle is a part of the collection Lost room made in 2013. ABOUT THE LOST ROOM COLLECTION ------------------------------------------------------------- A room out of time and space. A place apart. Filled with unusual objects. A model is like teleported there and finds himself facing the lens of Idan Wizen. Fear, surprise, humor, sweetness ... This is what the Lost Room series and its baroque tapestry reveals to us. A series that places the individual in a strange, almost surreal space. The Lost room collection belong to the project "Who's that nude in my living room?". ABOUT THE PROJECT "WHO'S THAT NUDE IN THE LIVING ROOM ?" -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Showing humanity as it is, in its most natural state, its nudity and diversity.That's the art project of Idan Wizen started in 2009. Since, he photographed more than 1600 differents persons, as you and me. By their diversity and their nature, their dynamism and their naturalness, the work of Idan Wizen underline the universal human beauty, well beyond the sociocultural and aesthetic constraints and criteria of our time. Whoever poses in his simplest clothe participates by his own personality, its differences and its features, freely expressed in the photo, to the universality of the human kind. To the standardization of the criteria of beauty of our society and its modes of expression, the artist opposes the multitude, the variety, the force of character, the movement, the surprising and the natural one to the state of the human kind. A WORD FROM THE ARTIST ------------------------------------------------------------- Idan Wizen is a French-Israeli artist living in Paris.Graduated in 2008 from the London University of the Arts, he turned to a visual art that was both humanistic and committed. While Idan challenged himself by creating art working with regular people, most of which have never done a professional photoshoot, his artistic direction and the lighting composition realize a dreamlike image with a unique atmosphere yet it remains ultra realistic. His various projects have commonality of his unwavering desire to make the spectator ponder; a push for them to understand the real message and see beyond what the machine is feeding them.
