Aurillac / Place

Nested in the valley of the river Jordanne, the plots are incredibly numerous, exuberant of colours, little streams, of course of vegetables and fruits, secret passages and little cabins, it is always a delight to be in contact with the fruitful soil in such a place.

Aurillac / Museum

The discoveries are often very interesting in this huge ancient stable built in the 19th century and transformed into a place for exhibitions of contemporary art.

Aurillac / Park

From this quiet and beautiful high place you can see an amazing view on the city and its surroundings : the bell tower of the church of Saint Géraud, the tile roofs of the old houses, the hills...

Aurillac / Shop

Every time I need inspiration for a present for friends or family, I go to this store and inevitably discover something intriguing, exciting and unique. Books, clothes, luxurious old fabrics, bizarre little objects, and a lovely owner whose passion for antiques is communicative.

Aurillac / Restaurant

I love this tiny but refined restaurant. The cook and owner is generous and passionate, he likes to spend some time within the tables and share some truculent tales with the clients. The products are mainly from the local area and the wine cellar is excellent.

Aurillac / Art Centre

This place is dedicated to art and creation and harbors studios for illustration, clothes, terracotta, potery, leather... Every room has its own beauty and from time to time you can meet the artists and see how they work. The theater company Béliâshe is also present in this old high school and proposes classes, workshops, exhibitions and an interesting program of shows.

New York / Photographer

Justin James King is an artist/photographer living in New York City whose work has been shown internationally. He is currently working on a project that expands on his interest in landscape and memory, taking inspiration from the remnants of a devastating hurricane that changed the course of a river in rural Vermont. When he's not working in his studio or traveling to shoot locations he can often be found at one of these fine places.

Los Angeles / Artist

Matthew Brandt (b. 1982, Los Angeles) received his BFA from Cooper Union in 2004 and MFA from the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) in 2008. Interested in physicality, process and landscape, Brandt’s ability to stretch the readings of an image, multiplying them both physically and conceptually, speaks directly to his interest in how images loom and meanings shift within a shared visual history. His work is the clever manifestation of a photographic alchemist, satisfying the urge for the tangible, and grounding us in the present. Brandt’s precocious talent has landed him in the permanent collections of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), the Armand Hammer Museum (Los Angeles) and the Elton John Collection. He currently lives and works in Los Angeles.
