DAIDO MORIYAMA - Daido Tokyo Twelve years after his first exhibition at the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain in 2003, the eminent Japanese photographer Daido Moriyama will return to thefoundation for a new exhibition that focuses on his recent work. Featuring a large selection of color photographs, Daido Tokyo will shed light on this lesser-known yet ubiquitous aspect of his photographic practice over the last two decades. The Fondation Cartier has also commissioned a new work from Daido Moriyama in conjunction with the exhibition. Entitled Dog and Mesh Tights, this immersive multiscreen projection of blackand-white photographs will plunge viewers into the commotion of the contemporary city, capturing fragments of daily life from its unrelenting urban hustle and bustle. DAIDO MORIYAMA, #DaidoParis Projet en ligne / Digital Project The Fondation Cartier invites you to (re)discover the works of Daido Moriyama through the daily uploads of photographs of Paris, taken and selected by Daidov Moriyama from his archives, which include photographs taken on trips to Paris over a period of 20 years. 160 photographs by Daido Moriyama shot between the late 80’ and 2003 are presented together for the first time. FERNELL FRANCO - Cali Clair-obscur The Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain presents for the first time in Europe a comprehensive retrospective of the work of Fernell Franco, a major yet still under-recognized figure of Latin American photography. A photojournalist by profession, Fernell Franco developed a powerful personal body of work that addressed the precarious and conflicted nature of urban life in Cali, the city where he lived and worked for most of his career. The exhibition will bring together 140 photographs from 10 different series he produced between 1970 and 1996. It will also reveal the importance of Fernell Franco’s work within a broader cultural context, as part of the vibrant art scene that emerged in Cali at the beginning of the 1970s, marked by a spirit of collaboration amongst a diverse community of artists. Representative of the artists who emerged at this time, Oscar Muñoz has been commissioned by the Fondation Cartier to create a work specifically for the exhibition as a tribute to Fernell Franco and a remembrance of their fruitful artistic collaborations. FERNELL FRANCO #UNSEEN Projet en ligne / Digital Project Exhibition curators Alexis Fabry and Maria Wills chose a selection of unseen photographs by Fernell Franco for online publication. Not included in either the exhibition or its catalog, they complete and enhance a discovery of the photographer’s work, with one photograph released online every day from January 11 to February 5, 2016. #FernellFranco #Unseen |
