Paris 18ème; et Merde, c'est le 18ème (2024)

Português:
Não. O título é uma brincadeira; eu gosto muito do 18ème. Vejamos então. Paris é dividida em 20 bairros ("arrondissements"). Nos últimos anos (desde 2015), cada vez que vou para Paris, fotografo um ou dois arrondissements. O tempo disponível não permite uma visita ampla e procuro me concentrar nos locais que me parecem mais interessantes. O décimo-oitavo (18ême) é atrativo por diferentes aspectos: lá se situa Montmartre e a basílica Sacré-Coeur; é um local com uma imensa imigração da África Negra e do Magreb (árabes do norte da África); é a localização de Pigalle, dos cabarés Moulin Rouge, Lapin Agile e do Moulin de la Galette; na parte posterior de Montmartre há áreas residenciais e ruas tranquilas com suas escadarias a céu aberto; foi o primeiro local onde morei (1976-1977) na França. É prazeroso passear pelas ruas des Abbesses, Lamarck, Caulaincourt, Lepic, Saint Vincent, des Saules e tantas outras ao norte de Montmartre. Se dirigindo para a sua parte leste, há a região de "La Goutte d'Or" (Gota de Ouro) com uma bela vista da basílica Sacré-Couer. O metrô Barbès-Rochechouart (entre os boulevares de la Chapelle e Sebastopol) é um dos pontos emblemáticos do 18ème. É uma região onde a forte imigração africana se faz presente. Cada arrondissement possui seu charme peculiar e certamente o eclético 18ème merece um olhar atento para as suas particularidades. Neste passeio estava acompanhado pelos meus amigos - e fotógrafos - Arnulf Kost e Fahd Sultanem.

English:
The gallery title is just a joke. I do like the 18ème. Let us see. Paris is divided in 20 areas (called "arrondissements"). Since 2015, when I go to Paris, I visit one or two arrondissements. The available time is not sufficient for a complete walk and therefore I choose the spots that I consider interesting according my feelings. The 18th (18ème) is attractive in several ways: the Montmartre and Sacré-Coeur; it is an area with a strong African immigration (Maghreb included); location of Pigalle and cabarets Moulin Rouge, Lapin Agile and the Moulin de la Galette; the area "behind" Montmartre (towards north) there are residential areas, calm streets and the long pedestrian stairs; it is the first place where I lived (1976-1977) in France. It is a pleasure to walk on the streets Abbesses, Lamarck, Caulaincourt, Lepic, Saint Vincent, des Saules and many others of this region. On the opposite part (at east, but still on the 18ème) there is La Goutte d'Or area with a nice view towards the Sacré-Coeur basilica. The metro station Barbès-Rochechouart (corner of boulevards de la Chapelle and Sebastopol) is another emblematic point of the 18ème, where the immigration is present. Each arrondissement of Paris has a peculiar charm and certainly the eclectic 18ème deserves an attentif look to its particularities. My friends - and phographers - Arnulf Kost and Fahd Sultanem came along on this tour.
