The tightly knit and highly resourceful photographic collective Tendance Floue has, for more than fifteen years, shared everything from money to authorship. In addition to exhibitions and a trilogy of publications, the group has enacted many novel performances, and has covered areas of photojournalistic interest, including the United States in the aftermath of 9/11 and Palestine

With Sommes-Nous? ("Are We?"), the group's eleven members confront issues of artistry, technology, and the human condition. This new book, which presents its material in the innovative format of an exhibition staging, features photographs that portray places marked by history, where multiple worlds confront one another.
