I want to buy a Porsche !

– May 15, 2008

I have started to work for Porsche here in China. Shooting portraits and action photos during their recurrent 10-days-long ‘Porsche World Road Show’. Here are some photos little bit more personal about the event. Quite tricky (especially with the same camera) to shoot photos at a time for the client and at another time more for myself. So these images are about Chinese ‘nouveaux-riches’ who want to buy a Porsche.

About Eric Leleu

I have been living in China as a photographer for a few years. My brain is obsessed by concepts such as authority, consumerism, capitalism, geopolitics, sociology or urbanity... In a word, I am interested in our contemporaries (you and I) and the world as it becomes. My focus is the dynamics of public spaces: the interrelationship between the authority, the crowd and the individual. As for my eye, it is looking for colors and intensity. My dream is simple: having a few of my photos living longer than me...
