Communicative devices for “Salon du Métèque“
Collaboration idea/photo Gabrielle Lajoie Bergeron, Sven Prothmann
Each year the ESBAM (École superieur des beaux arts de Marseille) provides an exhibition for their exchange students in the gallery Montgrand.
I created the title Salon du Métèque (Living room of a stranger/ wog) and worked on the idea and realization.
Marseille is a divided city. In the south all the French and rich people live and in the north the African/Arabians and the poor ones. We wanted to communicate that al- though a foreigner is different, he brings color and life into the city of Marseille, as well as the exchange students, who invite people to explore their world and their room.
While we shot the pictures in the popular places in Marseille, we advertised the exhibition.
One poster, one flyer and an announce-
ment film were newly formed.
