A landmark monograph devoted to the work of French photographer Jean-François Bauret, published by Contrejour, Paris, in 1984. Best known for his intimate and psychologically charged portraits, Bauret developed a photographic language defined by restraint, precision, and an exceptional sensitivity to light and presence.
Bringing together seventy seven finely reproduced duotone plates, this first edition offers a comprehensive overview of Bauret's practice at its maturity. His photographs move effortlessly between portraiture, landscape, and the human figure, revealing a quiet intensity where composition and atmosphere become inseparable.
With a text by Gabriel Bauret, the publication exemplifies the editorial excellence of Contrejour, Claude Nori's influential publishing house, whose books helped shape the history of photographic publishing throughout the late twentieth century.
An essential reference on one of France's most refined photographic voices.
Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.
We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.

Every Intermission title is handled as an artifact. We believe that preservation is an act of reverence one that begins the moment you open a cover or unspool a tape.
To experience a piece, do so slowly. Allow the air to touch the paper, let light fall softly over each page. Avoid excess pressure; handle edges rather than surfaces. Each mark, fold, or patina is part of its passage through time evidence of care rather than decay.
We encourage collectors to engage not only with the content, but with the gesture of preservation itself: a quiet commitment to memory.
