Photography makes it possible to reveal the real.

 

Renate Buser’s objets-types (type objects) are extruded aluminium sections—direct impressions of views of the Villa “Le Lac” that show their components from a particular angle. They are as much about function as aesthetics. In this sense, the Villa “Le Lac” is specially interesting: it is small, very dense and reveals an extreme ingenuity. When one visits it for the first time, there are a number of details that one sees but doesn’t really perceive. Because the visitor doesn’t think of everything that has governed the architect’s choices for creating a given element. Little by little, one discovers that all, here, is the fruit of a reflection of quality. From that point on, the choice of photograph is imposed that makes it possible to show many more things than one really sees. In a sense, photography makes it possible to reveal the real.
