La BDIC vient de mettre en ligne 780 clichés du fonds d’archives photographiques Jean Pottier.
Ce fonds couvre une période de près de cinquante ans de photojournalisme (1956-2005) et recouvre de nombreuses problématiques sociales. Nous avons choisi, de mettre l’accent sur le thème des migrations, dans la continuité d’un travail mêlant archives photographiques et films documentaires amorcé en 2004-2005 sur le thème du bidonville de Nanterre.
