Serge Vandercam

Les crochets
1952

Vintage gelatin silver print. 17.8 x 13 cm. Photographer's stamp on the verso. - The upper left corner with creases..

Serge Vandercam noticed the hooks hanging over a wall quite by chance as he was about to portray his artist colleague Pol Bury. In the lens of the camera, Les Crochets become a photographic “objet trouvé” open to all sorts of associations.
