The photographs of the french photographer Jean Gaumy, who entered the internationally renowned group of magnum photographers in 1977, demand the maximum interpretive capacity of the viewer.
In his photographic work, he has specialized in detail photographs of nature, reproduced according to the title "forms of chaos".
The confrontation with initially mysteriously appearing structures, whose origins can not be recognized at first glance, give the imagination free space. The recording of the picture content is additionally complicated by the usually missing horizon in his compositions.
Precisely this uncertainty about the determination of alien forms give the decisive admiration and fascination for what the images depict: nature.
