Lancement Collection Fléchette 5 ANS

Fléchette is a book collection that creates a dialogue between images from the Archives de la Planète (1909-1931) – a vast documentary project forming the cornerstone of the Musée départemental Albert-Kahn collections to this day – and texts by contemporary authors. Comprising documentary texts, poetry, or essays, each book is crafted by an author invited to engage with a single image – autochrome and/or film – from which they write. Fléchette is directed by Adrien Genoudet, also an author in the collection, and published by Céline Pévrier at Sun/Sun publishing.

A contemporary update and revisitation one hundred years later of the question of disappearing worlds. Each volume opens with a reproduction of the chosen autochrome tipped onto the front page.
