With Les Parisiens, Luc Choquer revisits the capital with all the playful and determined spirit of a sophisticated slugger. Paris is reborn with his new saturated colours, his light characters and urban dramas. Luc Choquer puts our era, today’s world, in a cage, since Parisians could be Pekinese, Muscovites, Londoners or New Yorkers…

Luc Choquer’s photographs testify to the attachment that he has for his contemporaries, which he sees more as subjects than as models.
