In her new book, Bérangère Fromont captures youth and resilience at Place de la République, showing a generation navigating history, politics, and everyday life.
République by Bérangère Fromont is a photographic series initiated in 2023, exploring the presence of the body in space, the play of light, and the individual’s relationship to their surroundings. It echoes her earlier project, Except the Clouds (2016), which examined Athenian uprisings and the human place in History.
Fromont turns her lens toward Place de la République in Paris, a stage for political passion and a symbol of gathering, democracy, and freedom. Her images focus on youth, capturing the gestures and bodies of a generation marked by uncertainty about the future and the turbulence of History. They convey the spirit of a city that shifts between revolt and calm, revealing what connects us all: emotions, struggles, and the pursuit of balance.
Through this intimate, fragmented portrait of the square, Fromont explores resistance in all its forms—personal, collective, political, and existential—showing how these young people inhabit the world, engage with their environment, and strive to exist amid the instability that surrounds them.
Bérangère Fromont is a photographer based in Paris.
For the past fifteen years, her work has intertwined intimate, collective, and literary references, blending documentary and fiction around the central theme of her practice: resistance. Individual and collective forms of resistance, political struggles, quests for visibility, but also the very act of resisting as a force of life.
Her photographs are shown internationally and featured in various publications. In 2023, she was a finalist for the Foam Paul Huf Award. Her book L’Amour seul brisera nos cœurs was selected for the Rencontres d’Arles Book Awards. She is currently an artist-in-residence at Poush Manifesto in Aubervilliers.
She is represented by Galerie Bacqueville.
