Hyper Hyper

No, I won’t bore you with Scooter.

The latest body of work by Parisian photographer Denis Darzacq is called Hyper and has been created 2007. In reference to the “hypermarché” or supermarkets and global retail chains that have ousted small groceries the photographer addresses issues of mass consumption, shopping obsession, mindless consumerism and predicts the coming financial crisis in 2009. Street dancers from Paris and Rouen perform in the aisles of these stores as a contrast between being and having. The most recent occasion to write about Darzacq is his latest exhibition at the Kopeikin Gallery in Los Angeles from June 10 – August 21, 2010.
