Pioneers in their field, Marion and Philippe Jacquier have spent the last twenty years scouring flea markets, garage sales and other places where archives, photographic collections, albums and intimate snapshots are lost. In the ceaseless flow of photographic production, they search for the image that will catch their eye, the one that makes us see, think and dream, that can be enigmatic, whose meaning escapes us and captivates us at the same time.
For twenty years, Marion and Philippe Jacquier have been collecting these anonymous images, fascinated by their singularity, strangeness and freedom. This astonishing and unique collection, made up of some 10,000 silver prints, covers all photographic subjects: posed or live portraits, family scenes, scientific, documentary, historical, intimate or erotic photographs, images to bear witness, to denounce or simply made for the pleasure of sharing an ephemeral moment. The collection offers an exceptional panorama of ordinary or supra-ordinary life over almost two hundred years, from the earliest photographic experiments - daguerreotypes, glass plates, autochromes - to color snapshots. Photography is approached in all its diversity.
At the beginning of 2025, the Marion and Philippe Jacquier collection was acquired by the Antoine de Galbert Foundation, which donated it to the Musée de Grenoble, confirming the singular and artistic status of this visual corpus. Before joining the collections of the national museum, a selection of prints will be presented at the Rencontres d'Arles from July 7, 2025, in an exhibition that will show the various facets of the collection.The book that accompanies this presentation offers an aesthetic, playful and documentary immersion through more than two hundred images chosen by the sharp eye of Marion and Philippe Jacquier, who weave secret links between them.
A text by Marion and Philippe Jacquier introduces the book, while an essay by philosopher Gilles A. Tiberghien looks back at the images and their relationship to each other. Tiberghien reviews the most striking images in the visual corpus.
