Roland Laboye is one of those humanist photographers who are able to foresee the unexpected and track down the invisible. With his Leica, he captures the coincidental, the chance meeting, and stops the sequence at the crucial moment. Throughout his work there is no contrived composition, nor spectacular technical effects but a photography on an epic human scale where the incongruous prevails. By means of a wide choice of images this monograph introduces the essential nature of the photographer's work.
