Victor Burgin "Ca" exhibition at the Jeu de Paume, last days

Published by Cécile de Sortiraparis, My de Sortiraparis · Published on January 25, 2024 at 08:17 a.m.
The Jeu de Paume is devoting a major retrospective to British photographer Victor Burgin. Come and discover the exhibition "Ca", which closes on January 28, 2024.

Photographer and celebrated artist Victor Burgin is the star of a new exhibition at the Jeu de Paume in Paris. The Briton is at the heart of a retrospective showcasing over fifty years of work, creation and innovation. From October 10, 2023 to January 28, 2024, come and admire Ça, the photo exhibition featuring artist Victor Burgin.

No, the Jeu de Paume has not organized an exhibition around Stephen King's famous novel. The subject of this exhibition is more poetic, and also more surprising.

The exhibition features numerous works by Victor Burgin, dating from the 1970s to the present day. It's a broad panorama that allows us to admire the inventiveness, modernity and evolution of the artist's work. Photographs, 3D digital models, videos: the Briton experiments with technology to tell his stories, to create his own universe in these unique and fascinating images.

In black and white, then in color, the photographer takes a close interest in the world around him, in its uniqueness, in the thousands of details and coincidences that make it beautiful and exceptional. Each image tells a story: the different techniques used and Victor Burgin's artistic evolutions only serve to deepen and diversify these stories.

This narrative process, dear to the artist's heart, is even extended by this exhibition: no quotations, labels or explanatory texts are provided to comment on these works. In this way, the museum wishes to give visitors the freedom to create their own story, their own context. Each visit becomes unique, and the exhibition is transformed into an immense dialogue between artist and viewer!

During your visit to the Jeu de Paume, don't miss the second exhibition dedicated to Julia Margaret Cameron, Capturing Beauty.
