A year ago, the ELEPHANT book project carried by HEMERIA in the atypical form of crowdfunding came to fruition with more than 860 contributors: an unexpected but oh so gratifying goal. Two months of intense preparation - selection of images, writing of an iconic preface by Alexandre Jardin, as crazy as it is endearing, choice of texts for Romain Gary's "Letter to the Elephant" which still rings true and strong, in layout and choice of paper by a demanding artistic direction, printing, shaping, delivery (...) - will have drawn on resources but with the feeling of a job well done.
This adventure closes a 1st act because the book is soon exhausted. 2000 ELEPHANT are in your libraries and 2000 new books will be printed for availability from the start of September. While waiting for this new edition, a final signature meeting is organized with the photographer during the Rencontres d'Arles, an unmissable event on the international photographic scene.
