Sandy the hurricane devastated New York in October 2012. Christophe Jacrot, an expert in inclement weather, has spent years taking pictures of major cities in persistent weather. This time, he arrived in a dark Manhattan with no electricity. He created this outstanding series, New York in Black, while pacing the pitch-black, deserted streets at night.
Christophe Jacrot finds in “bad weather” a visual resource that few exploit. He attempts to capture the subtle lighting and pictorial substance that is offered when the elements are in full rage. Through the lens, cities or landscapes reveal their fragile beauty and seem to enter into a battle creating powerful dramatic tension. Constantly on the lookout for the worst weather conditions, the artist observes and patiently waits until a story arises.

Christophe Jacrot
In his photographs, Christophe Jacrot attempts to capture the subtle lighting and pictorial substance that is offered when the elements are in full rage. The photographer finds in bad weather a visual resource that few exploit. Taken on the spot, no staging no tricks, Christophe Jacrot’s photos show the lesser-known side of Megacities transfigured by torrential rain or thick snow. Through the lens, these giant concrete and glass jungles reveal their fragile beauty. More recently, the photographer has been favouring more natural landscapes like Iceland which he captured covered with a thick layer of snow. His work has been published many times in the press: Beaux Arts Magazine, Fisheye, L’Express, Libération, LE JDD, Le Figaro Magazine... “I love the intensity there is in the drama of bad weather, snow and storm.’’
