French artist/photographer Gilbert Garcin is now 80 years old. I love his stuff, and can only present a few of his pictures here. I can only say he's worth investigating if you find any of his photographs of interest.
This is from part of his bio:
"Gilbert Garcin spent most of his life managing a lamp factory in France. At 65, he retired and took up a trick photography workshop. For the past ten years he has been creating comical, surrealist photographs which warmly highlight sometimes cold, existential questions. Garcin inhabits this strange world and ponders it together with the viewer; with Garcin, you have a dedicated, but perplexed, guide."
Garcin's photograph, "Chasing Time," is also the pic I've used for my (lack of) Profile on the right side of this blog.
