Lee Friedlander : The Shadow Knows
Connu pour ses autoportraits peu orthodoxes, Lee Friedlander nous a donné une autre collection, mais cette fois seulement dans l’ombre, avec The Shadow Knows, une référence à l’émission de radio des années 30 qui se terminait par la phrase: «Qui sait quel mal se cache dans les cœurs des hommes? L’ombre sait. »
