Dark City |
|
Fabrice Strippoli’s work elaborates on the genre of North American street photography. Over the past ten years Fabrice has been photographing in black and white, mainly in Toronto where he now lives. He carries his camera wherever he goes allowing him to capture intriguing images as they occur.
Each photograph of his "Dark City" project is a glimpse of city life, captured in an instant. The viewer is invited into a world of black and white where time has stopped, where one can explore the details of the moment in one's own time. These day to day photographs show the slow gentrification of the North American big city.
In keeping with his observations on time and society Fabrice is currently working on a new body of work. Begun in 1990 it is a three-part personal journal about life, memory and landscape, also continuing the theme of gentrification of urban environments.
In addition to his urban projects Fabrice Strippoli has also produced a project on the Camargue region of France: the white horses, the bull-running, the dry landscape and documentary pictures of the "manadier", the cowboys from the South of France.
The "Dark City" project was exhibited at L'Oeil Nu Gallerie in Liege, Belgium (2002) and will be published as a book later on this year by Arsenal Pulp Press in the collection called Parralax.
Fabrice’s work has been exhibited internationally and is found in many private and corporate collections. It was part of the Narrative 360 exhibition, in Vancouver, 2003.
Fabrice Strippoli earned his BA in photographic stills from Ryerson Polytechnic University in Toronto, Canada in 1997. |
