Tataouine (تطاوين), anciennement appelée Foum Tataouine, est une ville du sud-est de la Tunisie située à 531 kilomètres de Tunis.
Mais la ville est surtout réputée pour la multitude des ksour qui remontent au XVe ou au XVIe siècle et dont le plus célèbre demeure le Ksar Ouled Soltane. Les villages berbères situés aux sommets des collines environnantes, tels que Chenini, Douiret, Guermessa et Ghomrassen participent également au charme de la région de Tataouine.
Son souk bihebdomadaire du lundi et jeudi est l’un des plus pittoresques de Tunisie. La ville de Tataouine organise annuellement le festival des ksour au mois de mars.

In Tunis, there few events involving photography beside a couple of small festivals, ATB challenge is one of the major and most buzzed events ever without being that great thing about arts, the challenge is about three disciplines: Art (Photography, Cinema, painting), Technology and Business. The photography is the major part of the whole competition involving less than one hundred amateur willing to get one the prizes: 1st prize 7000 TND (About 5000USD), 1000 TND for the second one and finally 500 TND for the last challenger.
This the jury is always a gathering of business man ans celebrities unable to differ photography from art, I have been in the first edition which spots “The national treasures” my main work was a set of photos of Sidi Ali Azzouz(Zaghouan) a splendid and Arabic post-Andalusian style and I was beaten by a guy shooting his hand as “The hand that build Tunisia” and a girl taking El Jem coliseum arches with her mobile phone as a matter of fun.
The event is -unfortunately- not promoting fun as a propaganda like what the bank is smart and it supports arts and young people. Anyway, I keep the faith and stand to see what’s going to be about this edition titled: Mediterranean sea : unionism and diversity.
Neil, Semia, Imane, Sami and Inji A., by Tunisian photographer Jellel Gastelli,
who divides his life between France and Tunisia.
Born in 1958 in Tunisia, Jellel Gastelli graduated in 1985 from the Ecole Nationale de la Photographie in Paris, where he currently resides with his family. In 1984 he travelled back to Tunisia and began his White Series (Série Blanche) . In 1990 he travelled to Alexandria, Egypt as French Cultural Centre artist -in-residence. That same year Gastelli received grants from the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs and from Kodak-Pathé, which allowed him to produce a photographic series on the city of Tangiers, Morocco and he published a book on this work in 1991.
Jellel describes his work as follows:
From time to time, ever since 1984, I have photographed the medium of Hammamet and the architecture of Djerba Islands mosques. I seek to capture the purity of the walls, covered with several coats of white-wash and to reduce buildings to their underlying cubic shapes. I inscribe in these images the sensations provoked by the tension between lines and surfaces saturated with light. Their multiple geometric combinations imperceptibly make their way toward abstraction. I play at replacing static prespective with dynamic flat surfaces. Although I was not aware of it when I began them, I realise now that in these very large prints, making up what I call the White Series (Série Blanche) I endeavoured to capture the intense pure spirit of place that I associate with my Tunisian childhood.
Jellel Gastelli’s Séries Blache has been exhibited at the Guggenheim as well as being part of their permanent collection in New York.
Unfortunately there was few about Jellel Gastli, and he doesn’t have a dedicated portfolio or website.
