The resulting photographs, which formed the basis for an exhibition at Paris's Centre Pompidou in 2019, are published here for the first time.\u003cbr\u003eSerralongue captured disparate moments in the lives of the exiles, their attempts to reach England and their provisional camps that were dismantled by the French government in 2020. Serralongue's images employ a suspended temporality that contradicts the sensationalized images broadcast by the mass media, recalling the visual traditions of history painting more than photojournalism.\u003cbr\u003eThe slowness of his photography, a characteristic of working with a view camera, requires both a distance from and a proximity with the subjects photographed, achievable only due to a relationship of trust built with the inhabitants of the \"Jungle.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bruno Serralongue\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1912122502\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781912122509\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Heni Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/08\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 11.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Bruno Serralongue","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44074118512895,"sku":"9781912122509","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_af7e99ee-c994-4a98-a7c0-7cf3061de63d.jpg?v=1685451891","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bruno-serralongue-bruno-serralongue-9781912122509","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
