Juhel stages landscapes and characters within the great freedom of composition that photography gives to choreography and space.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"tw-target-text2\"><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;\">The works of LE MURMURE DU CR\u00c9PUSCULE tell of a peaceful wandering in that transition time when, as night falls, streets get darker and interiors lit up. Shot in California, these works maintain Juhel&#8217;s tprecise distance and form of his cinematic and lively gaze on the urban territory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;\">Man never appears, yet his presence is felt in each of the images. Windows lit up, cars are parked, traffic lights are flashing,and signs are illuminated; tangible signs of the passage of men and women that we can only imagine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;\">The approach to twilight and a singular vision of colour, of chiaroscuro and of what light as a glow allows us to perceive, gives the the observer plenty of time to watch.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;\"><span lang=\"en\">The plasticity of the images, that resemble drawings and are very pictorial, the choice of printing on Japanese carbon fiber paper, continue to support Benjamin Juhel&#8217;s plastic approach to photography, who seems increasingly inclined to create imaginative and poetic objects\/images distant from reality.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;\">Each image suggests a moment of <span lang=\"en-GB\">expectation<\/span> and opens a narrative field for our imagination. Juhel leaves the observer all the freedom to imagine the previous and subsequent sequence of each work on display. He gives only a few traces, so that everyone can think freely about the development of the scene, <span lang=\"en-GB\">overwhelmingly pervded by solitude, absence and fragility.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;\"><strong>Tecnical Information<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;\">Fine art pigment prints on Japanese paper.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;\">Different dimensions in an edition of 9<\/span><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-7093 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a title=\"MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0022_L\" href='https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0022_L-1.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0022_L-1-100x100.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0022_L-1-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0022_L-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0022_L-1-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a title=\"MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0023L\" href='https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0023L.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0023L-100x100.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0023L-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0023L-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0023L-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a title=\"MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0005_L\" href='https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0005_L.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" src=\"https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0005_L-100x100.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0005_L-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0005_L-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.visionquest.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/MOONLIGHT_BJUHEL0005_L-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;\">Biography<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;\">After graduating<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;\">from Ecole des Beaux Arts in 2005, Benjamin Juhel has worked with photography and film. In 2007, he was the director of a workshop with The Company Theater in Mumbai called \u201cBody, Space, Area\u201d. This time of artistic research using video, dance, and sound fixed the way he\u2019s attached to choreography, rhythm and perception in his work. The years after he created a few \u201cLive Cinema\u201d performances, physical and sensitive films, played differently each time they were shown. His interest for gesture and architectural space can also be seen in \u201cSilence\u201d ( Dance &#8211; Thierry Mabon ) and \u201cArk\u201d ( Dance &#8211; Anne Charlotte Baranger ), two forms of dance films. In 2015, he work ed again with darkness and black with \u201cLes Abandons\u201d, a photography series of quiet abandoned bodies and silent cityscapes. Since then he has created a series of works series using darkness, physicality and the feeling of time. His work has been shown in many exhibitions and film festivals ( Londres, Milan, Paris, New York, Buenos Aires, Bordeaux, Tokyo&#8230; ) <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic, sans-serif;\">He is the founder and creative director of the creative studios Maison Mouton Noir ( Paris ) and Outsiders ( Los Angeles ). He works for Art &amp; Design, music, luxury lifestyle and advertising projects. His work has been featured many times in international magazines ( Milk Decoration, Vogue Italia, AD Mexico, Hypebeast, Wallpaper&#8230; ) and some of his films won awards in international festivals ( Helsinki Awards Film festival, Los Angeles Independent Authors, Barcelona Indie Awards&#8230; ). <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VisionQuesT 4rosso is pleased to present Benjamin Juhel&#8217;s exhibition LE MURMURE DU CR\u00c9PUSCULE in collaboration with Valeria Bella Gallery of Milan.
