Fred Mortagne, Attraper au vol = (Catch in the air) : photographs 2000-2015 / Fred Mortagne ; with essays by Anton Corbijn and Geoff Rowley.

Mortagne, Fred, (photographer.). Corbijn, Anton, (contributor.). Rowley, Geoff, 1976- (contributor.).

Summary:

Fred Mortagne is a self-taught French director and photographer who is internationally acclaimed for his images of skateboarding and street photography. 'Attraper au vol' (Catch in the Air) is the culmination of Mortagne's photographic career, from 2000 to 2015. A feast of lines and angles, his black-and-white compositions blend his subjects into their environments, offering an abstract perspective on architecture, geometry and the human figure. His work intrigues both skaters and nonskaters alike, as it emphasizes the aesthetic beauty of skate and urban culture rather than pure performance (although the raw talent of his subjects is readily apparent).
