MEDIATIQUE POST CARDS,
LAST VACATION AND ACTIVE LEISURE
In the Danish want ad newspaper “LOOK AT AND BUY” where the condition
for publication and thus for exhibition is the selling of an object.
With pleasure, I publish images such as:
My wife in Ardèche cooking dinner on our camping stove (for
sale), my wife in Ardèche pulling our canoe (for sale), Jeanett
trying on a hat (for sale) in Chang Mai, Thailand, Jeanett wrapping up
films on my father’s sofa (for sale), me, the winner, dressed as a Thai
Boxer, etc...
Sometimes, it was necessary to send an image several times, each time
manipulationg the cropping in order to obtain satisfaction and
visibility (me as boxer)
This obsession to appear (with my wife) happy and proud on our leisure
time - vacation was extended to the information media. I exhibit myself
as a hitchhiker, on vacation in Rio or dressed as a disco king.
to be continued...
At the same time, I compared the commercial cropping of photos in the
serious press, and in the want ad newspapers.
