Ocher-colored canyons, almost unreal lagoons...
The illusion is perfect. We are taken to the ends of the world.
But we are in France!

By its diversity, its openness to the seas, its contrasting climates...
France looks like the end of the world.
And reveals an unusual vision, an unsuspected richness!

At the origin of this beautiful journey: the photographers from the ONLY FRANCE Agency,
who travel across France and share their discoveries.

Séverine DABADIE will present a photograph of the transhumance of a flock of black-headed Manex sheep (buru beltza) on the heights of St Jean-Pied-de-Port (Garazi) in the Basque Country or elsewhere…

80 large format prints (1.80 m x 1.20 m) will be exhibited there,
for 4 months, in the heart of the Latin Quarter.

4 to 6 MILLION VISITORS EXPECTED!

The illusion is perfect and a change of scenery guaranteed! A journey around the world to the heart of our regions thanks to photos that evoke the four corners of the planet.

“Elsewhere in France” is an exhibition imagined by Stéphane Francès and Only France. 35 photographers from the agency reveal the hidden beauty of our regions.

SIBASTARRAK PASTORALA / PASTORALE SIBASTARRAK 2023 / URDIÑARBE/ORDIARP

The pastoral is a form of theatre, heir to the "mysteries" of the Middle Ages which were played throughout Europe, mainly on the forecourt of the church.
This show where there are songs, dances and narration is performed in Basque. Each year, a village of Soule (in the Basque Country) mobilizes to organize it.
This year, the village of Ordiarp played the "Sibastarrak" pastoral, retracing the story of Madeleine and Jean De Jaureguiberry.

Pastoral Simone Veil (Musculdy 2022) elaboration

 

The Simone Veil pastoral will be played in Musculdy on July 24 and 31 and August 6. 95 actors from the village of Musculdy (130 inhabitants). Written by Battitte Berrogain and directed by the errejent Maite Davant, the choirs under the direction of Sophie Landaburru. La pastorale souletine is an outdoor theater piece entirely in the Basque language and more particularly in souletin. Heir to medieval theatres, it was staged by l'errejent, director and guarantor of tradition, and performed by dancers and actors from the same village. The central theme of the pastoral is always the struggle between good and evil, between two groups represented in blue and red. This traditional and contemporary form of theater at the same time moves the crowds of the Basque Country and is considered a major event by the Basque cultural community. At present, it is one of the essential cultural characteristics of Soule. A pastoral is organized each year by a different Souletin village. Rehearsals last from six months to a year. Performances last around 3 hours and usually take place on the last Sunday in July and the first Sunday in August. This practice has been listed in the Inventory of Intangible Cultural Heritage in France since 2012.

OUR STEPS IN THEIR STEPS - GURE URRATSAK HAIEN URRATSETAN
Initially scheduled from 06/11/2021 > 02/01/2022 and faced with the enthusiasm of the population of Ciboure, the exhibition is extended.

An exhibition carried by the town hall of Ciboure in collaboration with the photographer Séverine DABADIE

 

 


              



In October 2021, Blue Week celebrated its 70th anniversary. And the City of Ciboure, its first participation in this event that works to highlight the place of seniors in the life of the city.
We wanted to share diversity, intergenerational mix, culture, sport and solidarity with everyone for this first edition.
Therefore, the idea of an exhibition in honor of Cibourians, fishermen, workers, artists or peasants and activists, has sprouted in our minds. And the names, the faces of 23 Cibouriennes and Cibouriens appeared as a matter of course, to testify to the Ciboure of yesterday and today.

 Text read during the sneaking by the photographer:
Our footsteps in their footsteps is the title we wanted to give to this exhibition because it is emblematic of the approach implemented as part of the City of Ciboure's first participation in the Blue Week dedicated to Seniors. . The Culture and Community Life Service and the City's Animation Service as well as the Social Action Center and the Iduski Ederra Foyer enthusiastically joined this project. Everyone will have noticed the youth of the City Council and it is why this desire to celebrate the Ancients is all the more notable.
For me who am between two waters, between two ages, this project was important because in my work, the notion of intangible heritage, of transmission, of memory constitutes a compass. Born in Biarritz and arrived in Ciboure at the age of 4, I have always had the feeling that this city, this bay, this horizon had shaped me in the sandstone of the tides, storms and rugged terrain. This offshore horizon, beyond the dikes, was filled with mysteries and adventures and called to me. But it is in the hollow of this protective bay, protected by the silhouette of the fort that we Cibourians like to find ourselves. I am convinced that as a port, Ciboure and Zokoa have shaped our characters, our dreams and our aspirations. There is a fund common to all Cibourians which has been shaped by geography but also by history and this is what we wanted to underline through these meetings.
This exhibition was desired, supported and accompanied by the Town Hall through the follow-up of Emilie Dutoya, Sabrina Berrouet, Sandrine Zamora, Myriam Hammami and Carine Lalun. Everyone's wish was of course to honor and highlight Cibourians, but beyond this desire, it was important that they be representative of all Cibourians. We had to limit ourselves in the number of participants and many are those who deserved to appear. This panel, this kaleidoscope of personalities, however different they may be, is the story of Ciboure. These faces, these journeys, tell us the history of our city in its complexity, in its evolution.
They tell us about a time when Ciboure was a town of fishermen, of canneries that numbers of workers sometimes joined in the dark night, wearing hoofs, walking the towpaths to reach the factory at the call of the siren who tore the silence. They tell us about the Ciboure of the workers, of a time which saw the port filled with boats which each winter joined the African coasts, of living docks where tuna and sardines were unloaded in a joyful hubbub. They tell us about Ciboure who knew how to welcome those who, driven out by the Franco dictatorship, crossed the Bidasoa to live in peace with us. They talk to us about the link with Brittany, the solidarity of fishermen, the Baltsan who shaped the Cibourian soul, the necessary solidarity, a time without television where people crossed paths, recognized each other, talked to each other during evenings. entire on the banks of the Nivelle or the port of Zokoa. They tell us about Ciboure which had a number of farms, craftsmen of all kinds. They tell us about the simple people who made up the population of Ciboure. They also tell us about the beauty, artistry and joy of creation that shone far beyond the city's borders. They tell us about this war which shook their youth, deprived them of freedom and basic goods. They tell us of the courage they had to face it and of those who stood up for the honor of an entire country, modestly endorsing an extraordinary destiny. They tell us about the battles that punctuated their lives and the stones they added to the construction of our world.
You are the Cibourians in their richness and their differences. You are the representatives of the values ​​that the Cibourians hold dear. You have known without nostalgia or bitterness to show us the way forward. And to me, personally, you offered your kindness, your warm welcome and your faces that told me about the Ciboure that flows through our veins and irrigates our aspirations and I am deeply grateful to you.
Sometimes, we no longer recognize Ciboure, are afraid that his particularities will be diluted. We should be the ones who reclaim our history, our values, our culture, our language. You were there to remind us of that. Milesker handi beats!
You are not our past but on the contrary our future because you illuminate our path and, rich in your experience, you guide our steps.
Severine Dabadie

A camera slung over the shoulder and the crashing waves in the background ... Although passionate about India, Séverine Dabadie remains viscerally attached to the Basque Country, where she lives and works. She delivers its unfathomable soul, far from the clichés usually taken, while preserving the mystery. In an ethnographic and sociological approach, she has always been interested in Basque cultural heritage and in subjects that seem to her to be weakened by the onslaught of modernity.


Based on the bilingual book published by Elkar in collaboration with Itxaro Borda, still available in bookstores and online.

EUSKAL ARTZAINAK-BASQUE SHEPHERDS ON BLOG: BALADES EN PYRÉNÉES

At the beginning of September, Patrice Tesseire, Editor-in-Chief Mountain of Pyrenees Magazine devoted a very nice chronicle on our book "Euskal artzainak - Basque Shepherds". This mountain man, and nevertheless a journalist, knows the pastoral milieu well and his writings are always very wise.
Thanks to him for this boost that brings to light our book that has touched the hearts of the inhabitants of the Basque Country and more particularly that of shepherds and peasants.
You can follow his adventures on his blog:

www.baladesenpyrenees.over-blog.com

EXHIBITION OF SÉVERINE DABADIE ABOUT

This choice of G7 organizers highlights the Basque pelota in some of these multiple variations.
The 22 photographs which compose the exhibition will be showed in the big hall of the Press Center at the Halle Iraty, which will welcome 3,500 journalists from all around the world to cover the G7 in Biarritz.
These photographs will be one of the "windows" that will allow them to look at the Basque Country in a sensitive, almost choreographic way.

"A black, E white, I red, U green, O blue: vowels,
I will say someday your latent births ... "
Arthur Rimbaud in "Voyelles"

These words of Arthur Rimbaud are famous, they open his poem "Vowels". Journey on a path of colors and letters, this fulguracy of the giant Ardennes offers here an unexpected prospect to travel the Basque Country. This is the one chosen by the photographer Séverine Dabadie to invite to a rimbaldian walk in the heart of the Basque Country.
The writer Itxaro Borda put on her "soles of wind" to follow her along this initiatory journey, following a poetic wandering.
Both want to embark the reader in the heart of this book and the Basque Country as one would enter a symbolist poem, small touches. Leaving room for imagination, vowels and colors marry into a "long disturbance of all the senses" to reach an intimate, even intimate vision, a way of being "seeing" and touching the essential. Black, white, red, green and blue are the vowels of Rimbaud. Séverine Dabadie's photographs follow these colors in their chromatic language and the purity of Itxaro Borda's texts are like the "drunken boat", letting us discover the Basque Country and its landscapes through words.

HERE AS THERE, WORLDS IN CHANGE (St Pierre d'Irube - Hiriburu)


Saint-Pierre-d'Irube / Hiriburu on Friday, October 13 2017   20:00
Multimedia Space (new town hall)
 in partnership with the Association "Si on peignait.." and the City Council

The photographer Séverine Dabadie proposes to accompany you through films and slideshow aboard the Airosa tuna boat based in the port of St Jean-de-Luz, in the mountains and Basque Piedmont near the Basque shepherds as she will train you on the the banks of the Ganges, in India, at Benares.
Here as there, everything is a question of gaze. These two seemingly different worlds are changing. Modern times are shaking up traditions and shattering our landmarks.
The work of Séverine Dabadie, a professional photographer and author of 5 books, takes a benevolent and optimistic view of these traditions that persist and struggle to remain the foundation on which the future will be based.
By associating these three themes so different, it seeks to highlight the traces of a past still alive. Is not one of the photographer's roles to account for transitions, lifestyles, beauty and to bear witness of the world to the world?
Being from here or from there, we are no less human. How to focus his attention on the other without knowing his home, his land and his customs? More than an approach of India or the Basque Country, it is an invitation to sharpen its gaze, to open up to the world without neglecting its own roots.

More than 30 years after the publication of the reference of Jacques Blot, Artzainak Severine Dabadie (photographer and writer) and Christiane Etchezaharreta (author) tried to establish a state of the Basque pastoral scene. For several months, they surveyed the Basque mountains Ala meet many shepherds from all backgrounds, of all ages, from all backgrounds, men, women, old, young, shepherds landless, herders from family shepherds, pastoral workers are not from the Basque Country and monitoring herds voluble Irati, men pursuing the profession by tradition and even a shepherd anthropologist.
Far from being a homogeneous world all gave of their time, shared their passion and love of the mountains to testify.
thanks.
There is no "one" pastoralism but "of" pastoralismes. This world is infinitely rich. It forces us tantàt àtourner our gaze to the future, tantàt the past. Basque pastoralism is more like the image of Epinal that the postcards would still impose. This is a changing world sailing between modernity and tradition. Times have changed, leading to pastoralism in its wake. However, good news! If the task is hard sometimes, herders have adapted. They used this ancient tradition to enter the twenty-first century with the fierce desire to perpetuate these skills, these lifestyles, the deep desire to offer consumers the best products and especially to experience the mountains.

L'exposition "Itsasturiak, les gens de la mer" s'appuie d'abord sur les témoignages et les histoires racontés par celles et ceux qui ont vécu l'évolution du port et la pêche (des témoignages recueillis en 2010 par l'Institut culturel basque dans le cadre de son programme de collecte de la mémoire orale en Pays Basque "Eleketa" (sous maîtrise d'ouvrage du Conseil général des Pyrénées-Atlantiques).

« In my wildest dreams, before walking in the streets of Kashi, I would never have imagined a place so beautiful and so strong. Kashi is the city of my dreams. As a photographer it was also a revelation in my life in the same way as when I saw the first image appearing bathed in the red light of the darkroom. It was an artistic revelation but also a human revelation.
My life is closely linked to this magical place. Every year for the last 9 years, my steps bring me back to the banks of the Ganges River, to my Indian friends, to my goldmine. Every day I try to unravel a little more the mystery surrounding the city. I know that one life will not be enough. So I dig my furrow hoping to go beyond appearances, beyond mere representation. This is also why a vision of reality through its reflection always seems to me more real, strangely more true. This poetic and phantasmagoric game, these reflections always lead me to new reflections.
Kashi, the city of my reflections... »
