Moires is a first-hand document on the activity of a contemporary artist whose art consists in photographing film images in cinematheques around the world. Some are presented here for their value as indications, inviting us to consider them in their singular autonomy as much as in the more or less oblique relation they establish with the text. The narrator's voyeurism places memory from the outset in a fictitious, cinematographic recollection; his gliding gaze delights in blurring boundaries, confusing levels of perception, viewpoints, times and identities. The result: private diary and fiction, memories and travel narrative, fragments, reflections, notes, interviews and descriptions of images stand side by side in Éric Rondepierre's book and weave the thread of a shimmering that takes on the value of destiny.

ABOUT

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.
