Strangely static, these still shots capture a massive, petrified circulation. In cities, we live and evolve in compartments that are part of larger ensembles. Seen from a distance, people, vehicles, tools, containers, and buildings are reduced to an accumulation of forms. By bordering each object with rectangles of white lines, Grosse seems to want to restore the individuality of each small territory that melts back into the mass of sheer numbers, yet is highlighted by this strategy of outlining. Isabelle Grosse lives and works in France, where she had a solo exhibition this year at Galerie Anton Weller in Paris. Her work is currently represented in the major touring exhibition TRADE, organized by the Fotomuseum in Wintherthur, Switzerland (accompanied by a catalogue). In 2000, her work was in the exhibition Les trahisons du modèle, presented at Le Havre during the Semaines européennes de l'image. Grosse is represented in a number of collections in France.     Isabelle Grosse, Beaubourg (détail), 2001, épreuve couleur, 122 X 147 cm.
