Fais-moi ouïr
1990
This photograph by Dingo, created for Rétroviseur magazine, transports us to a nostalgic world. It evokes the 1930s at sunrise in the countryside, where a legendary Auburn convertible, a symbol of luxury and independence, sits on a frosted field. The scene exudes a timeless charm, blending the refinement of the vehicle with the rusticity of the morning setting. In the foreground, a woman from behind, an independent bourgeoise, sits alone. Draped in a fur cape and wearing an elegant hat, she is immersed in listening to the music emanating from two ancient gramophones. This moment of isolation becomes a personal celebration of pleasure and luxury, a sensory escape where the woman seems to enjoy every note to the full. The relaxed posture, intimate setting and absence of her face reinforce the idea of an almost subversive aural enjoyment, where listening becomes an act of pure personal pleasure. The provocative title “Fais-moi ouïr” subtly plays with the double meaning of the verb “ouïr”, suggesting an experience that is both aural and sensual. Here, listening becomes a metaphor for pleasure, an intense, private pleasure that the woman savors away from the gaze of others. Dingo uses this moment to blur the boundaries between art and desire, creating an image that invites the viewer to share a moment of pure indulgence, almost transgressive, where music and the automobile come together in a bold and resolutely personal harmony. Passionate about cars and music, Dingo here merges his two loves to capture a scene that not only represents, but transports. Every element of this composition reflects the artist’s sharp eye, for whom cars are not just machines but mobile works of art, and music a doorway to the soul. This duality is echoed in the photography, where the silent roar of the cabriolet and the ethereal melody of the gramophone echo each other in a visual and aural symphony, marking the artist’s distinctive imprint.
The different types of frames and finishes available
The print comes with its certificate of authenticity and a Hahnemühle hologram affixed to the back.
The framing is left to your discretion.
The floating frame, sleek and modern, is one of the preferred framing choices for contemporary art galleries and museums.
The floating frame perfectly enhances your photographic print.
The spacing between the frame and the image creates a floating effect and highlights the image, making it an ideal art frame to maximize the depth and elegance of the artworks in our collection.
The print is mounted on a 2 mm Dibond panel and placed in the frame.
The depth of the floating frame is 4 cm, and the gap between the photograph and the inner edges of the frame is 0.8 cm for black or white finishes and 1 cm for wood finishes (Oak, Wenge, etc.). This arrangement creates a visually pleasing “floating” effect. Finally, a hanging system is attached to the back of the frame for a quick, easy, and secure installation.
This classic framing combines timeless elegance and sophistication, offering a sublime presentation for your most precious artworks and photographs. A wooden or aluminum frame, chosen for its simplicity and nobility, adds a touch of authenticity and refinement to your piece.
The mat, an essential element of this ensemble, enhances the artwork by creating a visual space around it. It highlights the details and nuances while adding extra depth. Carefully selected, it perfectly complements the artwork without overwhelming it, allowing every detail to stand out.
Finally, the museum glass, of exceptional quality, provides optimal protection against harmful elements such as dust, humidity, and UV rays. With its unmatched clarity and anti-reflective properties, it ensures perfect visibility from every angle, allowing your artwork to shine without distractions.
