Yves Eigenmann - Year instants From the 22nd of January until the 16th of April 2005 Profiling itself majestically in the pre-alpine landscape, the castle of Gruyères is a place with magic aura: where past and present vigorously mingle. For a whole year, the photographer Yves Eigenmann has let himself been inspired by the site. He has realised a report of great fineness and, with a sensibility to life and to the people who inhabit today these old walls, testifies. The exhibition holds a selection of 50 black and white images. The photographic qualities are one after the other expressive and poetic, favoured by inkjet enlargements. Yves Eigenmann was born on the 30th of January 1954 in Bern. After a draughtsman and then photographer apprenticeship in Fribourg and Yverdon, He moves to Montreal in 1980, where he works for 10 years, amongst his employers, the prestigious Canadian Centre for Architecture. At the beginning of the 90s, he returns to Switzerland. Since then, he allies his activities as an independent photographer and an employment as technical co-worker at the Service cantonal des biens culturels (Cultural Goods Service) in Fribourg.
