The Galerie Parallax in Aix-en-Provence organizes with the Galerie Baudoin Lebon an exhibition by Joel-Peter Witkin. As a preface, these few very apt words: Joel-Peter Witkin gives images that could only be provocative a dimension of secular icons, of sacrificial allegories.

During the opening of his exhibition at LUMA Arles in summer of 2023, I had the pleasure to…

We're not serious when we're twenty, that's the title of the exhibition that Julia Gragnon presents in her gallery to celebrate its 20th anniversary. She wrote this very pretty text on this occasion!

Photographs, collages, writings and installations explore the tensions of a…
