Paris : Before Landing by Michel Houellebecq at Galerie VU

Preview

Since the beginning of his career, photography has supported and prolonged Michel Houellebecq’s written reflection on our society, Informed by his cinema studies, his relationship was already perceptible in Lanzarote (2000), a book bringing together the titular short story with a collection of landscape photography on that touristic Canary Island. The exhibition is runnning through July 11th, at Galerie VU’, Paris.

Here Houellebecq develops a singular work in which he combines photographs and fragments of text, both fiction and poetry. The rural landscapes, the urban development and transportation hubs are common motifs, echoing his visions of France developed in La carte et le territoire (winner of the 2010 Goncourt Prize). Here they demonstrate their unique visions of the world.
