Le Monde Publié le 19 avril 1951 à 00h00 - Mis à jour le 19 avril 1951 à 00h00 Article réservé aux abonnés On dira : " Ah ! si vous aviez vu mourir Ludmilla Pitoëff dans Survivre.. Un souffle outre les lèvres ; les longues paupières cachent à demi les noires prunelles.. La tête penche en arrière, fleur coupée. Et l'on dirait qu'une aube blanchit le front, sous les cheveux noirs strictement rangés de la puritaine passionnée . Thamila Mesbah, Study: Thérèse Le Prat (1895-1966) was a French photographer. After experimenting with landscape and portrait photography, Thérèse Le Prat concentrated on photographing faces. At first, she was photographing stage actors (her first two books, Visages d’Acteurs(1950) and Autres Visages d’Acteurs(1952) are remarkable documents of the post-War theater scene in Paris.) But then her work turned more abstract – she had actors perform for her camera, at first with masks, then with makeup alone. In exploring the face, Thérèse Le Prat looked to reveal extremes of human depth and emotion. And she added words to the mix: her later books include both prose and poetry to push the exploration further. In Masques et Destins(1955), her first book of these portraits, she and her actors searched for photographic expression of the extremes they played out on stage. For Un Seul Visage en ses Metamorphoses(1964), she spent three years with the mime Wolfram Mehring and makeup artist Grillon exploring myriad ways of seeing a single face. And she continued her most expressionistic work with diverse faces until her death, after which the photographs were published as En Votre Gravité, Visages(1966). .
