Geisterbild

1933-1945

Again, Stéphane Duroy went on the trail of tragedies that marked Europe in the twentieth century. He continued his artistic approach by the constancy of the human condition, its endless frustrations, between boredom and resignation, which updates the profound injustices throughout the twentieth century, the peoples of Europe have plunged into an endless tragedy. Here, it is up to the surface memories of Germany between 1933 and 1945.

Yesterday, the denial of their human values by European nations, blinded by fear has precipitated many of them in abject totalitarian.
Today, resurgent, human distress remains – regardless of his face … loneliness, slavery, anti-Semitism, racism – a real threat to the community when a tiny number of people access to knowledge leaves people in ignorance and contempt he wrote last December. Nourished by the poetry of Brecht, Baudelaire, these words are in the twenty-first century, with the September 11 disaster and Japan, an additional weight.
