According to the myth of the daughter of Butades the Potter from Sycione, painting was invented by outlining a shadow. Photography didn’t exist then but already gave birth to art of painting. Today, this particular way of fixing space through a light cast onto a plan has remained an essential part of many young French painters work. For the Year of Russia and France 2010 RuArts Gallery and Gallery Nivet-Carzon present five artists who share the use of photography at the core of their practice.
