“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.” Marcel Schiess, initiator of the project   Photographs – Yann Amstutz, Matthieu Gafsou, Milo Keller Texts – Sylvain Malfroy, Thierry Béguin, Marcel Schiess, Jean-Christophe Blaser, Lada Umstätter Creative and art direction – onlab, Berlin, Thibaud Tissot, Nicolas Bourquin Graphic design – onlab, Berlin, Thibaud Tissot, Johanna Klein Publishing – Attinger Editions, Hauterive.   140 pages, color photographs, bilingual French/English texts, 21,5×29 cm, Oct. 2012 Online order at www.payot.ch
