The new French photography and the Northern Europe

That is not a hazard if young photographers choose their subject in Northern Europe.
Adeline Keil photographed the women in the cloakrooms of the swimming pools of Reykjavik with decency and respect.
Eric Franceschi went on the traces of the "Hare of Vatanen" through Finland.
These photographers are the witnesses of our daily life, of our limits.
Sweden is not any more the dream of some "ninnies" and the "Boheme" of Bergen disappeared but the relations man-woman, the link with nature and the respect of differences are values of these countries. The beauty of the Icelandic volcanos or the Norwegian fjords are perhaps the source of that.
The Scandinavian countries and Russia are a new border of imaginary, near from us and at the same time abroad.
