This second book by Léo Berne that we are publishing is a photographic journey through the artist's last ten years, presented in a single day.
I love you - I love you is a true declaration of love to those and to those, known or unknown, who have crossed and inhabited the life of Léo Berne over the past few years - his family, his friends, his loves, the faces of anonymous people who have crossed his path, the places he has visited, the unusual scenes of his daily life, snippets of his travels, and finally the light revealed as the pages turn and the day declines or rises. The book has the particularity of having no beginning or end and of being able to be looked at in either direction.
The choice of title is a nod to the eponymous title (Je t'aime, Je t'aime) of Alain Resnais' film, in which a man trapped in a time machine wanders through his memories.
Je t'aime - Je t'aime is published in 800 copies, and was lovingly conceived and designed following the two-part exhibition “From Dawn to Dusk / From Dusk to Dawn” which took place from December 2019 to February 2020 at the Echo 119 gallery in Paris.
