Catalogue Raisonné 2001-2025

Published on the occasion of a major solo exhibition at Jeu de Paume, Paris, this book encompasses 25 years of the photographic ¿uvre of Luc Delahaye.

Including all works Delahaye produced between 2001 and 2025, the book covers the decisive period in which he increasingly distanced himself from war photojournalism in the 1990s and committed himself to the field of art. From Delahaye's early photographic tableaux to those composed on computer or staged, as well as his polyptychs, series and videos-stills, these images offer a restrained yet powerful account of our troubled, turbulent world. This catalogue raisonné offers a comprehensive framework to trace the evolution of Delahaye's methods and themes, identifying distinct periods and examining the rigorous processes by which he draws the cartography of contemporary times. A variety of texts and an in-depth interview with the artist provide insight to Delahaye's elusive body of work-one that reflects on presence in the representation of the real, on history, memory, violence, and our responsibility as viewers.
