The Long El Triple Goodbye





Returned to El Triple in Baja California, Mexico.



The long beach where as of 1979 so many weeks and months have been spent.


Until 1985 to make sequences.
Followed in the years after by VISTA images, videos and the PS series.



Visits and stays at El Triple last year and now are not to make new pictures.
This is explained in an interview by journalist Mick Davidson for AG photomagazin in the UK.
To be published in july 2010.

Mick Davidson:

How will your work evolve in the future?


Michel Szulc Krzyzanowski:

This is an invitation to speculation.

Right now I am most interested in my autonous photo documentary work.
And am working on different projects with great pleasure and good results.
However, concerning the autonomous conceptual photography, I believe that this is a field where no innovation is possible anymore.
Anything that is made in that field is a repetition or a variation on what has already been made.
I believe that autonomous conceptual photography has been researched and explored to the most far ends and that nothing truly original can be discovered there anymore.
As I am not interested in persiflage, copying, imitating and making variations and therefore being mediocre, I have left this field of autonomous conceptual photography and enjoy myself deeply with my projects in the field of autonous photo documentary work.
And expect to continue in this way.

Staying at El Triple now is like a long goodbye.
Of the days of autonomous conceptual photography.
And of the desolateness of the location.
Of the fabulous view of the Pacific Ocean.
And the violent northwestern wind that tortures frequently.





To create an opening for moving to another location.
Probably somewhere in the mountains.
