Berenice Abbott, Vivian Maier — Une fantastique passion
Past: October 8 → November 26, 2016
What is the connection between these two utterly different women? Berenice Abbott sought out the light, while Vivian Maier hid amongst the shadows. One indefatigably knocked on every door in order to get her projects off the ground; the other criss-crossed the globe on her own.

Autoportraits
Past: November 7, 2014 → January 10, 2015
When a photographer shoots him/herself, s/he upsets a code of conduct, and the “shoot” morphs into a real challenge. This show of around 40 modern and contemporary prints reveals the photogenic power of this moment of truth.

Berenice Abbott & Raphael Dallaporta — Science
Past: September 21 → November 22, 2012
Since its beginnings in 1839, photography has been a rich, potential source of inspiration for scientists. We can see what’s invisible because of it and at the beginning of the 20th century, the avant-garde grabbed this scientific iconography, reworked it and adapted it to their own artistic needs.

Changing New York — Berenice Abbott
Past: March 7 → May 4, 2012
During the entire ten year period of the project — 1929-1939 — Berenice Abbott produced the finest record ever made of an American City. Her point was graphically to capture the times, to make a record, in as artistic a fashion as possible, that would be of use to historians, sociologists and even art critics.

Berenice Abbott (1898-1991) — Photographies
Past: February 21 → April 29, 2012
With Berenice Abbott, urban experience is at the heart of the exhibition: in an America shaken by the Wall Street Crash, her images of 1930s New York convey her fascination with an urban landscape in the throes of dramatic change. Also known for championing the work of Eugène Atget, Abbott, who originally wanted to be sculptor, proved to be a great photographer of matter, space and light.
