Treasures of the Rhone

Photographers Remi Benali and Patrick Landmann have spent 10 weeks working with Luc Long and a team of archaeologists and divers who have been excavating the Rhone River. The Roman Treasures that they have found, unseen for 2000 years, include a marble portrait of Julius Caesar, the only carved while he was alive, a gold-leaf statue of Victory and a bronze captive awaiting his death sentence. All are considered to be chefs d'oeuvres by the French Ministry of Culture and can be seen now at the Musée Départemental de l'Arles antique.

France - Perpignan - until Septembre the 16th.
PR : Visa pour l'Image is now 19 years old.
And these nineteen years have been devoted to promoting a certain type of photography analyzing events around the world and going beyond the coverage presented by the traditional medial. Some people may find this attitude provocative, but that is the goal, as this is the only way of exposing and speaking out against so many negative forces in the world.

This perplexity definitely has a starry-eyed “forever onwards and upwards” side to it.
