Summary: | The photographic realism delivered to the public as to the researcher a fertile material to know and study the workers. The inclusion of photography in art created a new kind of realism, as photographers called the critical documentary. Applied to the labour question, it supports to think the current situation of the workers, and not just to represent the events. Allan Sekula ’s work offers a comprehensive analysis of the workers in the maritime domain. Photographer Philippe Bazin introduces political philosophy questions with the representation of workers. The interdisciplinary intent of this photography, which borrows its methods to the humanities, art and journalism, invite the author of the article to present its own documentary research on what became the School of workers.
