ITʼS ALIVE! A travers lʼœuvre de Gisèle Vienne

ITʼS ALIVE! à travers lʼoeuvre de Gisèle Vienne, the book from French photographer Estelle Hanania, gathers over ten years of collaboration and archives revolving around the artistic universe of Gisèle Vienne.
A subjective monography on the choreographerʼs work, the present book makes for one of Estelle Hananiaʼs densest cluster of images to date, arraying a collection of photographs that spans from 2008 to 2019.

For Estelle Hanania the human body has proven to be a limitless source of inspiration. Her ability at capturing the essence of Gisèle Vienneʼs vision, through her acute visual understanding of bodies and objects, as well as her knack for building natural bridges between Gisèleʼs performances and the whole of her photographic endeavour. Shaking up the foundations of the classic live-performance book as we know it, Itʼs Alive! offers a singular take on the work of Gisèle Vienne, inviting the reader to look from beyond the stageʼs borders.
