Event details
Polka Galerie exhibits for the first time in France the photographs of Raymond Cauchetier. Aside from his famous pictures, the gallery presents his works from Indochina, Saigon and Angkor. Two universes closely linked, since one allowed the other to emerge.
Cauchetier fundamental photographer of the new wave, was also a great reporter during the Indochina war. At the end of the war, he stayed in Cambodia and met Marcel Camus, who invited him to follow the filming of his movie, produced in Cambodia. This chance encounter with the 7th Art is the beginning of a prestigious career as a set photographer.
