"Nicolas Faure is the "new topographer" of landscape and Swiss photography. For 20 years, he has been producing series of works around themes that concern today's Switzerland; for the most part, these are landscape photographs. , but sometimes also portraits: the double "face" of a new Switzerland, contemporary, landscape and man; the new order, double, from a "primary" orientation, from a point of view on the world and on the another's face." (Urs Stahel, "From Switzerland to Switzerland")

"Nicolas Faure stems from the desire to inscribe in the present - which photography certainly knows how to do best - a sketch of the heritage bequeathed by the 20th century to future generations. And in which lie, secretly, signs that will be those of tomorrow's nostalgia."

"Between art and document, at the fragile but still exact boundary that separates them, Nicolas Faure's photographic landscapes recall the requirements of beauty and truth of the ideals of the Renaissance, in a resolutely contemporary perspective." (Daniel Girardin, "A landscape through the art of looking - Landscape A")

French:

"Nicolas Faure est le "nouveau topographe" du paysage et de la photographie suisse. Depuis 20 ans, il réalise des séries de travaux autour de thèmes qui concernent la Suisse d'aujourd'hui; pour la plupart, ce sont des photographies de paysage, mais parfois aussi des portraits: le double "visage" d'une Suisse nouvelle, contemporaine, paysage et homme; le nouvel ordre, double, d'une orientation "première", d'un point de vue sur le monde et sur le visage d'autrui." (Urs Stahel, "De Suisse en Suisse")
