In 2021 and 2022 Anne Rearick spent several months in the Perche among its inhabitants, animals and landscapes; her photographs depict the everyday experience of the worlds she immerses herself in and celebrates with delicacy. Free of any all-embracing project, she lets each person express themselves in turn through looks, poses and gestures, and renews a deeply humanist photography that goes toward the other as an equal rather than seeking ego or identity (Christian Caujolle). In the United States, South Africa, the Basque Country, Sète and the Perche alike, she brings the same generous gaze to people, capturing images that express above all the pleasure of the moment and the quality of the encounter. Complementing the photographs, Rémi Coignet, a connoisseur of American photography, holds a long conversation with the artist. Working on long-term subjects in the documentary tradition, she focuses on daily life and rural life, magnifying the banal and erasing brands and logos that would distract from the authenticity of her narrative, and explores the notion of community, central to her work.
