7th International Meeting

PROGRAM
.
.

Les Rencontres Internationales de la Photographie de Ghar El Melh no longer an event, they entered the habits of Tunisians, as the Festival of Carthage, or Kélibia Mahres. The most notable being the name of the shortcut, if you go to Tabarka is to listen to jazz, El Jem to enjoy Symphonies at Ghar el Melh is obviously photography that s question. Ghar el Melh, a majestic fort, a peaceful village, a beautiful beach … the guide would be incomplete without Encounters returning for the seventh consecutive year, beating the record for longevity in an international event, held in Tunisia, reserved exclusively to photography .
.
Exhibitions
We always think to question the very idea of state. It must be said that since the beginning of the twentieth century this has always made the same way. Exposure is simply framed photographs distributed by a certain logic in a well lit room. Attempts have not failed to revisit this tradition, but it all boils down to this procedure because the secular important to look at a photograph takes precisely this confrontation between the viewer and the photographer, the latter through his work.
This year too we will witness a variety of looks, enhancing the imagination and a clear desire to imagine a different world. The photographic opportunities this year are even richer, the systematic practice of staging, or put into life, to the world as it stands, the public will be invited to be among these possibilities. This year Fetart, Association for the Promotion of Contemporary Photography, based in Paris, offers exhibitions of great class for our greatest pleasure.
.
Carte blanche to collectors
After photographs of Mustapha Bouchoucha Victor Sebag, Soler and some anonymous we continue this year the discovery of photographers who have completed the photo album of Tunisia. This year Beit el Bennani us to be cognizant of the expertise of a professional photographer. Photography by Gilbert Van Raepenbush, sober, not without artifice, but with much rigor in the composition and framing, is a lesson in photographic technique.
.
Round tables and discussion: “Controversies still …”
(Hamideddine Bouali, critic and historian of photography)
The exhibition was great stir in Lausanne in 2008, it was talked about in the catalog of meetings last year. Scheduled again this year in Paris, she was more appreciated and organizers added a subtitle: “Stories in Pictures”, played on the polysemy of the term history. A visual reminder of these photographs in the history of photography but have also been subject to criticism, often virulent, the audience will discuss issues that photography has always been. The question is whether this is an integral part of this medium off-standard or of a social debate that a day will definitely exceeded?
.
The Nocturnes
Photography lessons will be an opportunity to see and hear how the photographers talk about their colleagues. Photographers invited or selected to present this seventh edition, with photographs, works of their colleagues they like, which influence or which are similar. Opportunity to attend conferences novel, where the photographs will be better appreciated as used in conjunction with the inclinations of the author.
Other photographers submit their work to criticism and debate in the presence of connoisseurs. Appointment to be unique in today’s landscape photography. The Nocturnes, a portfolio light not to be missed.
.
Workshop for children and adults
In photography children Ghar el Melh are spoiled anywhere else they may consider an exhibition gallery as a playground like this that is happening in their village. So we decided to familiarize themselves with other activities that serve to further refine their tastes and preferences. They will design, sculpture, reuse of household waste and to comment on the film they just watched. Five days of multidisciplinary activities after the end of the school year, children not deserve all, a table of honor for their creativity?
.
Le Corsaire: Meetings of the newspaper and Radiography
Le Corsaire, the newspaper of the Meetings will accompany this edition by a radio, which will not pirate. The silence of the fort will be pushed by the waves of the station, which will issue its programs for the benefit of visitors. Le Corsaire Graphie and Radio will be there to give news, conduct interviews, make the weather so that we will add the photographs and his writing …
.
Pixelmania
Karim is unbeatable on digital, the ownership, maintenance of cameras, file transfer and improvement on the graphics … It always has a trick to avoid the return of your materials to after-sales service, the best way to make you more efficient with a premium, and word games and a smile staggering. Enjoy it’s free.

Workshop “How and what to expose? “
Led by Natalia Jaskula and coordinated by Hamideddine Bouali, this workshop is for photographers participating in this edition. It is often difficult to choose among those photographs which could constitute a coherent whole. It is not just a matter of common theme or a technique, but the search for harmony. The corpus consists of photographs represents the work done and likely to become an exhibition. It would be desirable that participants be accompanied by a portfolio, in the form of photo prints for books, CDs, or display on laptop.
.
After midnight
On one edition to another, only the moments, impressions jealously guarded, memories and the catalog. If the catalog is the support of each issue, listing the photographers and animations organized, only references to the unique atmosphere of Ghar el Melh will know what this event actually is. After midnight is one of the appointments that are most unlikely. No program, no invitation, no time only certainty: The beach of Sidi Ali el Mekki … This is all alone and it is magical. In recent years this component of the program wonder where people are meeting, we reserve the surprises that a director can not predict … In fact after midnight is the magic of Ghar el Melh gift.

« En route vers les jardins du paradis »

J’écris cette chronique le 1er janvier 2009 et l’horloge de mon PC indique 3h’45 du matin. La fête est finie, la trêve aussi, la vie reprend ses droits avec ses larmes et ses rires. On oublie souvent qu’il n y a pas de bonheur sans tristesse…sinon comment le savoir qu’on est heureux !!! (Cette citation est de moi). Mais il est fort possible qu’il est une quiétude sans animosité et celui qui a dit : “Si vis pacem, para bellum”, (si tu veux la paix, prépare la guerre) est sûrement soudoyé par des marchands d’armes !!! 
Certains m’ont voulu d’avoir écrit la dernière chronique. Mais que croyaient-ils ? Que je ne voulais pas protester. L’unique manière efficace de le faire est, à mon avis, de travailler davantage, sauf bien évidemment pour les ouvriers des usines d’armement qui, eux, devraient non pas faire grève mais chercher un autre boulot. 
Oui je proteste…La preuve ! Je suis à ma troisième chronique en l’espace d’une semaine alors que la moyenne était d’une publication par quinzaine. Faites-en de même et vous verrez que votre rage, votre douleur et votre envie de crier seront canalisées et surtout utiles. J’ai écrit d’un seul trait ma chronique à propos de Gaza, dans un accès de colère en ne faisant pas attention au style…en me lisant tout de suite après j’ai éclaté en sanglots.
Ce jour-là, le record des connectés par jour fut atteint (83).Plusieurs d’entres-vous m’ont appelé pour me dire comment et combien ils ont été touchés à leur tour par ce texte et par la remise en liberté, même si cela n’est que symbolique de la Palestine, par le biais de ma photographie que j’ai déposée dans le domaine public. Il aurait fallu attendre 25 ans après ma mort pour qu’elle le soit. Beaucoup l’ont téléchargée pour la mettre en fond d’écran de leur ordinateur d’autres l’ont compressée pour l’envoyer par sms à leurs amis…merci de contribuer à l’émancipation de cette photographie. Un ami, fou d’oiseaux dont le pseudo est Chardono-Tunis, et qui tient un forum, indique dans son forum où la photo en question – intitulée Palestine ! – pourrait être vue et téléchargée. Je lui rends la pareille. Si vous voulez tout connaitre à propos du chardonneret – qui pourrait être ce petit oiseau qui sort de l’objectif seulement en présence d’enfants remuants – allez sur le site : http://chant-chardonneret.activebb.net.

Jacques Pochart, fidèle lecteur de Belgique, réagit à la chronique intitulée : « Il n y a pas de mains pour me caresser le visage » par ces mots : « Vous êtes un vrai magicien…….je suis abonné au web depuis des années, la photo me passionne…et ce n’est qu’aujourd’hui et grâce au magicien Bouali que je suis allé visiter la toile pour y faire plus ample connaissance avec Giacomelli, merci mille fois pour cette invitation muette. Quelle découverte, quel homme, quelle simplicité, quelle poésie, quel amour du prochain et de l’humanité…Merci aussi pour votre chronique familiale qui chaque fois nous oblige à plonger dans nos propres souvenirs et à faire le tour de notre propre famille et des relations et des souvenirs…». 
Je continu à vous faire partager les photographies qui ont influencé ma pratique…mon seul mérite est de ne pas les avoir oublié.

Eugene Smith (1918-1978)
Photographe de guerre ayant porté la profession à un niveau de conscience et d’éthique sans précédent, Eugene Smith pratiquait la photographie beaucoup plus qu’une mission, un véritable sacerdoce. Son père qui s’est suicidé après avoir fait faillite fut scandaleusement évoqué dans la presse, Eugene se fit la promesse qu’il fera du métier de photographe une profession propre. Sévèrement blessé à Okinawa le 22 mai 1945 par un tir de mortier qui lui déchira la joue et la bouche, il gardera des séquelles à la main gauche. Encore convalescent, Eugene Smith s’empare de son appareil photo et s’en va dans le jardin de l’hôpital – là où il se fait soigner – pour réaliser cette simple et magnifique image. Sa démobilisation fut salutaire. Il abandonna la photographie de guerre pour se consacrer à la photographie humanitaire. Une photographie militante, mise au profit des laissés pour comptes, des victimes et des missionnaires, avec comme forme l’essai photographique; un genre qu’il a inventé. La vie d’un médecin de compagne, le quotidien d’une sage femme, la mission du Dr Schweitzer en Afrique sont avec Minimita (que nous évoqueront bientôt) ses plus célèbres témoignages. 
«A Walk to Paradise Garden» (En route vers les jardins du paradis). PHOTO Eugene Smith 1946
Il est difficile de ne pas sentir l’effet tunnel de lumière auquel font allusion tous ceux qui ont failli passer de vie à trépas en revenant avant le point de non-retour en regardant « A Walk to Paradise Garden » (En route vers les jardins du paradis). Il parait que l’on se sent attiré par une lumière aveuglante et une sensation de plénitude – jamais ressentie auparavant- vous envahit. Ce couloir, dernier chemin de vie et d’où on commencerait à entrevoir l’au-delà n’est qu’une hallucination due au profond état d’inconscience atteint. Il me semble qu’au moment où la vie finit, on ne se sentirait pas dans un corridor mais dans un toboggan…et il n’est plus, bien évidemment, question de revenir en arrière, la volonté étant défaillante. 

Cette photo pourrait être aussi considérée comme une allégorie du début de la vie. N’avons-nous pas là une incarnation d’Adam et Ève se baladant dans le jardin d’éden ? Ou découvrant pour la première fois la féerie de l’ici-bas ? Quand on sait que ces deux enfants sont les siens, on comprend mieux l’état d’âme du photographe. N’est ce pas à travers notre progéniture que l’on réussit à vaincre notre phobie de la mort ? C’est la seule explication possible, bien que déraisonnable, qu’en temps de guerre ou lors des grands fléaux l’on enregistre le taux de natalité le plus élevé.  
Il est fort probable qu’Eugene Smith a mis totalement en scène cette photographie, cela n’empêche qu’il nous offre une illustration définitive de la vie ; son incomparable beauté et son inestimable valeur. La trouée, semblable à un arc du triomphe, d’où passent les deux enfants, leur taille relative – le garçon un peu plus grand que la fillette- ainsi que leur démarche déterminée donnent une impression de majesté mais aussi de stabilité. 
Avec deux enfants, un jardin et un immense et profond amour de la vie, Eugene Smith a tout résumé. 

Cette photo connote que chaque instant pourrait être le dernier vécu…mais aussi que ce monde où nous vivons est fabuleux, malgré tout. Il y a encore tant de gens à connaître, de choses à voir et de moments à vivre comme si nous étions des nouveau-nés. A Walk to Paradise Garden » n’est-ce pas où nous étions avant d’être là et là où nous espérons (pour ceux qui croient) y aller quand tout sera fini ? 
Voyager I, la sonde envoyée il y a une trentaine d’année à la rencontre d’éventuelles civilisations extraterrestres, emporta le meilleur de l’humanité ; des symphonies, des textes littéraires, des photos de paysages terrestres, des portraits, des sons gravés sur un cd-rom, 110 images et 1h30 d’enregistrements analogiques. “A Walk to Paradise Garden” aurait pu très bien illustrer la pochette : car cette photographie est à la fois une admirable invitation à visiter la terre mais aussi une preuve du génie de ses habitants.

Ce texte est dédié aux enfants de Gaza qui nous ont quitté trop vite…privés de connaitre – davantage – cette terre qui ne manque pas d’attraits.

When I first went to Tunisia I photographed camels in the Sahara and blue and white doors by the Mediterranean. Living there however I began to see other details and colours and felt the country’s special charm. It made me sad to think that the Muslim and my non- Muslim world didn’t know and appreciate each other better. It is pleasing therefore when ‘en regardant’ these photos people forget for a moment about politics and religion and smile at the ‘familiarity’ of the children reading books at school, old men having a chuckle together and the motherly expression of the woman veiled in green. I’m satisfied too when people just simply acknowledge the natural beauty of the long haired young girl and the serene spirituality of the red veiled girl sitting in the doorway and admire the peaceful landscapes and interesting architecture and lifestyle.

Scheduling

Les Rencontres Internationales de la Photographie de Ghar El Melh have become the great appointment of photography in Tunisia. Photographers from all sides: confirmed, new, children and the general public expect the last week of June to look, listen, do speak… all the senses will be arrested. Exhibits, workshops, panel discussions, slide shows a menu is also gratifying that teaching.
Exposures
Since its invention, photography continues to metamorphose, to the point where it seems that every photographer, creating its subject, invents its own medium. Each edition of the Rencontres is an anthology of looks from here and elsewhere previously. Venues from abroad or Tunisia, exhibitions are always a certain way of seeing the world. In Bamako as in Arles, Paris or Barcelona, the organisers: commissioner or curator, s’ingénient to build a theme events. In the exhibition galleries Fort Ghar El Melh – former penal colony – where for a long time any event basic freedom was banned today no restrictions are imposed. Meetings Ghar El Melh are a tribute, always renewed, the photographers who sublimate life.

Carte Blanche collectors The exhibitions last year Mustapha Bouchoucha and Victor Sebag had a great success. This year Beit Bennani and Iadh Behi return to submit their shots heart. “Anonymous” is a selection of photographs without mention delved into the fund Beit Bennani, but whose documentary value is undeniable. Soler was the photographer for a long time that any s’arrachait Tunis, he was the photographer official ceremonies, the reporter whose photos illustrated journals from the early twentieth century and a portrait of talent. Iadh Behi offers a choice of savoir faire of this photographer.

Round Tables I: “The pictures today”
(Led by Amar Dhaya, University)

It is possible to consider photography as an area that is sufficient in itself, a stirring panorama as broad as the imagination allows the photographer while being containing photographic. It is also possible to meet a different picture, known as plastic, worked or “photoshopée”, which spans areas, erases labels and demystifies history.
The first provided a wealth of world-famous photographers, a significant amount of works that take the icon. The second, because newer, less is known to the public. Visible only in the galleries, it is for the moment, confidential.
These two photographs meet sometimes violently, through their tenants, with arguments by critics texts and rarely through the works or theories.
All of this leads inevitably to, once again, seeking a definition of photography and a statute for the photographer.

Round Tables II: “The photograph in these relations with the media”
(Led by Mohamed Elhedef, journalist and photographer)

What information should be mostly in their paper version without photographs? A non-illustrated article seems sometimes suspect because the photographers, amateur or professional, are ubiquitous. But this beautiful marriage between the press and the picture is sometimes acrimonious. The scenes of households are becoming common to the point where it is periodically to the brink of collapse.
Photographs published out of context of achievement, false stories, even photographers who manipulate their works have become commonplace.
Like always trains arriving on time and nobody speaks and who become the subject of a scandal without precedent when one of them shows a slight delay, photography fills often marvel at its role . The debate, introduced by a review of photographs that have surprised, shocked or outraged, analyze the path that follows an image of the photographer drive. Course mined, chaotic and often dangerous.

The Night meetings
The evenings of meetings will be set aside for photography, how can it be otherwise, thirst that we organize and you look. In the vast courtyard of the first fort, projections will be organized to add to the vision, the sound of music accompanying commentary or a photographer. Jean Claude – alias Father Fourat – Imed and Donia show every night bêtisier Encounters. This year, a slide show will allow the public to assess programmes carried out by photographers who hope to win “The challenge for Ghar El Melh” trophy that will crown the creativity and boldness.

Photography workshop for children and adults
The workshops, as their name suggests, are more than one site preparations. The result does not count more than the work leading thereto. “The Wall images”, “Life, face and portrait”, “Their photos… our legends”, “Family Album,” are some of the workshops where children give free rein to their imagination, fantasy and innocence. The photographers will be invited to take part and children by the hand to the wonderful world of photography.

Journal of Meetings
Le Corsaire écumera the shores of Ghar El Melh for the third consecutive year. Auditors reported the course of the event, interviews with photographers, citations to remember, excerpts book to read, memorize vocabulary, helping heart of poets, are the topics.

Photo Academy
The Academy of Art in Carthage is a new private school to teach photography in Tunisia. With equipment at the cutting edge of technology, experienced teachers will be glad to show you how to use your digital camera, make a portrait studio and exploit the possibilities of Photoshop. A team of students from this institution will cover the highlights of the day and will screen his interviews and reports each evening.

Back in a work, photography by A. Kahia
What other event could pay tribute to Abdelhamid Kahia? Les Rencontres hope enroll in the Tunisian landscape photography as a reference to consult. A slide show, made after his great book “Tunisia” published in 1964, will explore photography Abdelhamid Kahia, one of the few masters of photography Tunisia.

After midnight
“After midnight” is a meeting, informal and relaxed on the beach of Sidi Ali El Mekki, where interrogations, which have always accompanied the photographer, will be raised. What is a good photograph? The photographer must seek to be happy or to please the public? And the art market! Should we follow or ignore? These are some of the questions which no reply has been unanimously. Here and nowhere else, the digressions are allowed if desired, photography leads to everything and what better place to escape the starry sky of Tunisia and the beach of Sidi Ali El Mekki? The echoes of discussions last year, which ended at sunrise, still resonate today. Some went to bed others have had enough strength to go eat doughnuts and start a new day. The meeting is also this: a performance of physical endurance.
