Avril 2025 – Avril 2026

In the years following World War II, the Souissi studio located in Rabat brought together photographers, filmmakers, in the service of government policy. Among them talented photographers, inspired by the ethics of the Museum of Man in Paris and by great predecessors – we will remember Jean Besancenot – carried out magnificent work in Morocco. The Maison de la Photographie strives to show the photographic work of these artists.

Rosine Mazin, born in 1942, winner of the Vaugirard school, joined the Souissi studio in Rabat 1969 Ã 1971. The studio had quality equipment dedicated to the film promotion of Morocco.

Rosine Mazin traveled through Morocco, crossed the Atlas, undoubtedly liked the warm relations with the population, the unique atmosphere of its markets, of his fantasies, the beauty of the landscapes and the architecture.

In 2019, Rosine Mazin got in touch with the Maison de la Photographie de Marrakech. By consulting his archives in Paris in 2021, we discovered the richness of his work, the same "double gaze", so much the color work is different from the black and white work. A set of negatives illustrates the earthen architecture of southern Morocco, precious testimony of the state of the heritage over the years 1970. Other negatives are much closer to everyday and popular life. In all cases, Rosine Mazin, young and amazed, shows a fascination for Morocco. His endearing and sensitive work is today a magnificent testimony to the love that the kingdom arouses.
