For its twelfth edition of contemporary art, the Château de Versailles invites five international photographers at the Trianon domain from May 14 to October 20, 2019. It is in the intimate setting of the Trianon that will be held the next contemporary art exhibition inVersailles. For this 2019 edition, Dove Allouche, Nan Goldin, Martin Parr, Eric Poitevin and Viviane Sassen will unveil works specially created and in resonance with the chosen places. A new Versailles is revealed through their works mixing creation and heritage.
The annual exhibition of contemporary art in Versailles offered to 5 artists, to invest different places in the domain of Trianon to retrace their deep exploration of the site and its history. VISIBLE / INVISIBLE sees each one of them bring an original and often unexpected look on the most prestigious spaces of the castles but also on the more secret ones. In the footsteps of the many photographers who for more than a century have interpreted Versailles, each responded with a real diversity of approach to this command for a new work. All have sought to enter subtly in resonance with these illustrious spaces, without wanting to dominate them but rather to penetrate surreptitiously.
