The Master and Margarita

TF1 - 11.12.2008

Today started the exhibition Le maître et Marguerite, Création Photographique based on the eponymous novel of Mikhail Bulgakov with, seen through the lens of Jean-Daniel Lorieux, the actress Isabel Adjani in the role of Margarita.

This free exhibition was initiated by Evgeny Yakovlev, a Russian business man who was so marked by the reading of the novel that he liked to introduce it to a much broader public. With the help of the photographer Jean-Daniel Lorieux he realized this project after having chosen Isabel Adjani to impersonate Margarita. The shooting took place in Moscow and its vicinity during two weeks in May, 2008, with the collaboration of a hundred of actors, extras, technicians... And the result is spectacular. The photos show us the face of Isabel Adjani such as it was registered by the photographer, without any correction, as requested by the actress. About this work she said: «This is like cinema with freeze-frame for me».
