Ann Ray présente pour la première fois à Paris, à la galerie et dans ce livre, une collection inédite de photographies: des portraits d'artistes les yeux fermés, réalisés depuis 20 ans, pour une grande partie en clichés argentiques.
Ce corpus majeur propose une réflexion sur la création, dans l'intimité aux yeux clos de celles et ceux, auteurs, plasticiens, danseurs, acteurs, musiciens, sur lesquels la photographe a posé son regard sensible.
Saisis dans la jeunesse de leur talent ou la maturité de leur statut d'icône, ces portraits d'humilité donnent à deviner sans artifice toute l'âme contenue d'une galerie de portraits de notre temps.
De Nicola L. à Gilbert and George, Alexander McQueen ou Yasmina Reza, de Michael Nyman à Gautier Capuçon, d'Aurélie Dupont à Nicolas Leriche ou Mikhail Baryshnikov, Willem Dafoe ou Guillaume Gallienne, entrecoupés de paysages oniriques, Ann Ray dévoile en un cliché et quelques mots, l'histoire de ces belles rencontres. Une introspection poétique, une invitation à rêver les yeux ouverts... ou fermés....
- Pierre-Alain Challier

Ann Ray presents for the first time in Paris, at the gallery and in this book an unprecedented collection of photographs: portraits of artists with their eyes shut, taken over the last 20 years, for the main part in analogue form.
This major body of works offers a reflection on creation, in the closed-eyed intimacy of the authors, visual artists, dancers, actors and musicians on whom the photographer has directed her sensitive eye.
Captured in the youth of their talent or the maturity of their iconic status, these portraits of humility give us a chance to guess, without artifice, all the subdued soul of a gallery of portraits of our time.
From Nicola L. to Gilbert and George, Alexander McQueen or Yasmina Reza, from Michael Nyman to Gautier Capuçon, from Aurélie Dupont to Nicolas Lenche or Mikhail Baryshnikov, Willem Dafoe or Guillaume Gallienne, interlaced with oniric landscapes, Ann Ray reveals the story of these beautiful encounters in one image and a few words. A poetic introspection, an invitation to dream with your eyes open... or shut...
