Two notebooks in one volume. Notebook number 1, Pneus: "Tyres in photographs have no real interest, which is why they interest me! Maybe that is what photography is, these little neuroses of useful experience, this narrative impulse of utopian desire… Like a natural practice of Ubuesque expression." Notebook number 2, A day with the Creeleys: "The weather was pleasantly fine, the day we went down from Santa Fe to Albuquerque to see our friends the Creeleys, Penelope and Bob. The winter sun is gentler than the summer sun in this immense American West. Will, their son, was three, and Shane, ours, was five. In the house the stove fire purred. We stayed mostly outside, on the patio, chatting, simply being well together! We surely spoke of our common friend Denis Roche, far away in Paris. It was the kind of day when time slips by deliciously, from which one leaves happy to have shared moments of life…" Bernard Plossu.
