A captivating image by renowned photographer Sabine Weiss has been selected to announce the summer closure of Les Douches la Galerie, a prominent Parisian photography gallery. The gallery will be closed from August 1st through August 31st, 2021, with the striking Weiss photograph serving as the centerpiece of their closure announcement. The choice of this particular image has garnered significant attention from photography enthusiasts and art lovers alike. Following the summer break, Les Douches la Galerie will reopen with an exciting group exhibition titled "À l'épreuve du Végétal" (Testing Against the Vegetal), which will run from September 4th to October 30th, 2021. This upcoming exhibition will showcase the diverse and intersecting perspectives of four contemporary French photographers: Thierry Balanger, Sébastien Camboulive, Pascal Kern, and Paul Pouvreau. The exhibition will feature their distinctive organic compositions, which encompass a wide range of photographic techniques and styles. These works include both natural imprints and artificially created images, ranging from lush, verdant compositions to more nebulous and abstract interpretations of organic forms. The varied approaches of these four artists demonstrate their unique and significant positions within the contemporary French photography scene. Their collective work in this exhibition aims to explore the relationship between photography and the natural world, examining how vegetal elements can be captured, interpreted, and reimagined through the photographic medium. Les Douches la Galerie is located at 5 rue Legouvé in the 10th arrondissement of Paris, and additional information about the gallery and its exhibitions can be found at www.lesdoucheslagalerie.com.
