About the artwork

Parisian swimming pools are the focus of a new photographic project by Ludwig Favre. After the United States, a legendary destination to which he has devoted many images, the Frenchman is returning to his roots and focusing on the Parisian urban landscape. The city of Bagneux recently inaugurated the metamorphosis of its swimming pool in a building from the 1950s. Its renovation and extension now form a harmonious complex on the theme of minerality, which is notably prolonged by the choice of colours: white, pale grey, and blue. Capturing this site, strangely devoid of any human presence, Ludwig Favre adopts a frontal point of view and stresses the almost perfect symmetry of the architecture. The enigmatic atmosphere and highly stylised rendering evokes a cinematic world.
