Frans Lanting Livres

L'année 2000 marque le début d'un voyage à travers le monde pour ce photographe à la recherche de l'évolution de la vie. Il en ressort ce magnifique ouvrage, témoin de l'étonnante biodiversité qui nous entoure. Le talent de Frans Lanting relève du véritable don : au delà d'une maîtrise technique époustouflante, c'est son art de la géométrie au sein de l'apparent chaos de la nature qui nous permet de voir le monde d'un oeil nouveau. Animaux, plantes, paysages, "La vie" est un hommage à la beauté de la nature, mais aussi le travail le plus remarquable de Lanting à ce jour

As we watch the chimpanzees of Arnhem behave in ways we recognize from Machiavelli (and from the nightly news), de Waal reminds us again that the roots of politics are older than humanity.
