This text appears to be an automatic translation of the French Wikipedia Article.

I think it should read:

Pierre Boucher (1908-2000) is a photographer who has contributed a lot to give photography its place in modern art.

With Pierre Boucher, the photographer went out of the darkroom to learn about other practices. As a member of movements like the Nouvelle Vision or Neue Sachlichkeit, Pierre Boucher explores many aspects of avant-garde photography. He is known for surrealistic nudes inspired by Man Ray, photograms, photographic collages, solarisation and superimposition. For him as a tireless pioneer of post treatment, overlay and collage, all techniques are fit to be explored.

Charlotte and Jerome!

Thanks for finfmding the reference and the proper translation. It is deceptive to think a single picture can represent the dynamic image crafted in the mind when one observes anything in our world. We don't merely process the scene to build a mental image, but simultaneously, we begin a long process of integrating this new scene with all the stored memories about such things, their properties, value and significance.

So it's wonderful for an artist to realize the possibilities of leading U.S. The build even richer insights and evocative experience when we look at a flat screen or print with two dimensional subjects. This he dines by hinting at so many other motifs that delicately stimulate our minds to build countless mitmrages of whisky transience and engaging mystery and beauty.

I see this in the pictures now on display in my home gallery. There's a lot a photographer can learn from this approach.

I also ask questions, did he project shadows of a mesh on to the body of that nude, or is this to another of the many transparency layers? But I only make such questions out of the desire to use such textures and not that one really "needs to know" to appreciate the art. The effects created do not call attention to themselves as "effects" as everything is done in a seamless fashion.

It's all so impressive and inspiring!

Thanks again,

Asher

Either your spell checker is possessed by evil or you realised that Pierre Boucher belongs to the surrealists.

repost of my thoughts, revised, bypassing know-it-all "Siri"!

So it's wonderful for an artist to realize the possibilities of leading us to build richer insights and experience than what shows on a flat screen or print as two dimensional subjects. The artist hints at many other motifs, each singularly and in a myriad of transient ever-shifting combinations, gently stimulate our minds to build engaging mysteries without needed answers and beauty that escapes.

I see this in the pictures by you, Charlotte, and by you of paintings on abandoned walls, Jerome, now on display in my home gallery. There's a lot a photographer can learn from these approaches.

I also ask questions, did he project shadows of a mesh on to the body of that nude, or is this to another of the many transparency layers? But I only pose this question out of the desire to use such textures and not that one "needs to know" to appreciate the art.
