Discover Félix Arnaudin and Jean-Joël Le Fur, two photographers some 150 years away, two eyes on the same places of the Grande Lande, a single objective: to account for a changing landscape. The first captures this period during which a whole agro-sylvo-pastoral economy will disappear to give way to an immense forest massif that was born under the impulse of Napoleon III. The second, in the footsteps of the first, first captures these fundamental differences. Then, by chance of the calendar, he witnesses with new photos, the upheaval that represents the storm Klaus in 2009. The exhibition shows these mutations through 24 photographed sites. But much more than an illustration, she questions what changes, what persists, the role of men and their awareness of being part of the landscape.

À propos du lieu

Domaine impérial de Solférino

  • Landes
  • Nouvelle-Aquitaine
In 1857, in his great dream of regenerating the uninhabited territories of southwestern France, Emperor Napoleon III acquired 7000 ha of the Landes department to create an imperial estate, a sort of ideal city in the image of Henrichemont, Richelieu or Versailles, designed in the 17th century. From 1860, the project comes out of the ground, a regular village (with its church Sainte-Eugénie, its town hall-school, its model farms and its agricultural houses called «cottages») implanted in the center of the domain. It became a commune in 1863 and was named Solferino in memory of the victory of the imperial troops over the Austrians in 1859.
