Virtual exhibition - "It's already old".

The exhibition "It's already old" is a commission of the project "Cultural resources and urban project" which studies the heritage of the Reconstruction in Normandy. "Cultural Resources" is a research project of the National School of Architecture of Normandy (ATE laboratory). It is part of the interministerial research and experimentation programme "Ville du XXe siècle matière à projets pour la ville durable du XXIe siècle" of the Ministry of Culture (BRAUP). The subjective view of the artist reveals the ordinary, extraordinary, suffered, inherited intimacy of the inhabitant: "Reconstruction is already old", "I stay for the view", "no defect except ...", "the potential to transform it", "I will not change anything". In fifteen encounters, "It's already old!" is a humanistic and illustrated panorama of daily life in the housing of the Reconstruction.

Elisabeth Blanchet, photographer and journalist, has built her artistic work on the observation of life paths. She works in particular on post-war barracks in the United Kingdom and in France, with a dimension that is both sensitive and militant.
