About the artwork

While Bernd and Hilla Becher, the initiators of New Objectivity, dedicate their work to photographing industrial installations, French photographer Franck Bohbot experiments with an equally exacting protocol that enables him to draw up an inventory of the landscapes he travels through. The systematic frontal and centred views of his subjects offer a documentary dimension based on typologies. It is precisely this systematism and the notion of the overview that confers an artistic and majestic dimension to his works. With this image taken on a beach volleyball court in Los Angeles, Franck Bohbot explores the timeless relationship between playing fields and the unique environment in which they are situated. Subtle image saturations evoke a nostalgic atmosphere that evokes the firmly rooted tradition of leisure activities in American culture. One of Franck Bohbot\'s strengths is his undeniable ability to travel through time in visual terms.
