PARIS 2e

"Infotainment? What the hell are you talking about?"


PATRICK DEMARCHELIER at the PETIT PALAIS

[Christy Turlington, British Vogue, New York, February 1992]

The Petit Palais, right on time for Paris Fashion Week, presents a comprehensive selection of 400 photographs by Patrick Demarchelier, one of the most influential photographers in fashion.

In this exhibition, Patrick Demarchelier’s photography offers a contemporary aesthetic that is fused with the museum’s permanent collection. Traditional European work and contemporary photography are intertwined such that the public will be surprised, stimulated and awakened.
The « Demarchelier touch » is an absolute reference among the legends of the fashion world. On the 4th of July, 2007, the prestigious Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) presented him with the « Eleanor Lambert Award » to honor his esteemed career and « his unique contribution to the world of fashion ».


Exhibition from September 27th 2008 to January 4th 2009

    I am Cedric, discoverer of things that would go unnoticed in the streets of Paris, historic haven of fashionistas and city of lights ('lights' as in 'enlightenment', not street lights).
    But seriously: I'm an expat from Luxembourg (the country, not the garden), living in the center of Paris (hence 'Paris 2nd arrondissement'), and currenlty studying architectural history...
