JEAN GENET AND ROGER BLIN - Lot 298
JEAN GENET AND ROGER BLIN Theater… 1950s. Photo by Studio Bernand, vintage silver print, photographer’s credit in the image + wet stamp and annotation on the reverse. 17.5 x 23.6 cm. Note: This photograph, taken in the 1950s by Studio Bernand, features Jean Genet and Roger Blin, two major figures in postwar French theater. One of the most influential writers, playwrights, and poets of the 20th century, Jean Genet challenged theatrical conventions with works such as *Les Bonnes* (1947), *Le Balcon* (1956), and *Les Nègres* (1958), which blend reflections on power, identity, and representation. Alongside him, Roger Blin occupies a pivotal place in the history of contemporary theater. An actor and director, he was one of the leading advocates of avant-garde drama, contributing in particular to the staging of works by Samuel Beckett, Jean Genet, and Arthur Adamov. Their collaboration played a key role in the profound renewal of the French theater scene in the mid-20th century. Produced by Studio Bernand, a major player in theater photography, this vintage print serves as a valuable testament to two figures who have left a lasting mark on the history of modern theater. Note: Some signs of handling, visible mainly when held up to the light.
