‘Body Language: ouvres de la collection du Fotomuseum Winterthur’
Centre Culturel Suisse, Paris Photo 2012
14.09.2012 - 16.12.2012
The exhibition presents a selection of photos around the human body, its representations, its postures, gestures, meanings in the intimate sphere or in the social field. Widely represented since the beginning of photography, the body has become an important issue since the 70s. Its representation becomes a source of claims regarding identity, homosexuality or feminism. Since then the body is unavoidable in contemporary creation.
