This exhibition traces the history of blur in photography, from the invention of the process to the present. With comparisons to painting and cinema, it tells the story – via key works – of the evolution of this form, as well as of the values associated with it according to the different periods and photographic practices.

The exhibition features a selection of drawings by Balthus which the artist’s family has placed with the museum as long-term loans.

This exhibition is the culmination of several years of collaborative work by Photo Elysée. It highlights images from the Gabriel Lippmann collection held at the museum and produced using the interferential technique – the color process for which Gabriel Lippmann was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1908.

For her solo show in the Espace Projet gallery, Sarah Margnetti shows a large selection of recent works, as well as wall paintings that will be done on site.

Placée sous le commissariat de Simon Würsten Marin, la deuxième édition de Jardin d’Hiver, exposition biennale consacrée à la scène artistique contemporaine de la région, explore les questions de changement, d’instabilité et de vulnérabilité, et fait la part belle à la diversité des modes d’expression.

Interrogeant notre rapport à l’image et la façon dont celle-ci médiatise le réel, l’exposition met à l’honneur Silvie Defraoui et propose de parcourir les 30 dernières années de travail d’une figure majeure de la scène artistique suisse.

Photo Elysée presents the exhibition Under Your Smell, a truly immersive experience exploring notions of beauty, identity and gender. Under the direction of Florence Tétier (Jean Paul Gaultier’s creative director) and Nicolas Coulomb (photographer and consultant for Novembre Magazine), students of the Bachelor Photography of the ECAL/Ecole cantonale d’art de Lausanne offer a visual interpretation of Jean Paul Gaultier’s perfumes.

« Come and see here what you won’t see elsewhere! » is the slogan for the permanent exhibition, laid out chronologically over two floors to showcase treasures from Vaud’s art collections, with some three hundred works dating from the eighteenth century to the present day.
