Dioramas, Palais de Tokyo. Opening, June 12, 2017.

Curated by Claire Garnier, Laurent Le Bon, Florence Ostende.

In summer 2017, Palais de Tokyo is staging “Dioramas”, an exhibition that explores the diorama as an unexpected source of inspiration for contemporary art. At the crossroads of art, cinema and theater, this cross-disciplinary exhibition is the first large survey to recontextualize the diorama with a renewed approach to the history of spectactorship, including the influence of science and technology, popular culture, fun fairs and exhibitions.

 

An exhibition catalogue in French is published by Flammarion in partnership with Palais de Tokyo.
