La Chaux-de-Fonds, The experience of a city
onlab, Berlin, DE
www.onlab.ch
"A city and three photographers elected to make the portrait of it. Yann Amstutz, Matthieu Gafsou and Milo Keller, were accomodated in residence at La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, from autumn 2009 to winter 2011, in any season, by day and by night, to capture this city, to make the experiment of it and to question it. A portrait with multiple facets which should surprise as much the inhabitants as that their visitors."
