Aldo SOARES (1960) - Lot 109
Aldo SOARES (1960)
André Dussollier, Paris, 1999
Silver print
Signed, titled, located and dated in pencil on back
Size including margins: 30 x 24 cm
Note: This portrait plays on doubling and frontality to blur the perception of identity. The face appears as both presence and reflection, almost spectral, inscribed in a dark space that absorbs part of the figure. Soares does not seek psychological resemblance, but a form of inner tension: the expression is calm, but the device creates a distance, a strangeness. The photograph becomes less a portrait in the classical sense than a meditation on visibility, on what is visible and what remains in the background.
