Le clos et l'ouvert (The closed and the open), 40 years of photography at CRP/

Exhibition from 9 September to 9 October 2022
at the Espace Le Carré, Lille (59)

The 1990s marked the decade of major works in the North. At the crossroads of an opening Europe, the capital of the region is transformed and modernized. At the Espace Le Carré, the CRP/, in the heart of Lille and thanks to its exceptional collection, looks back on this pivotal period. Between renewal and destruction, photography captures mutations, flows and impressions generated by these new horizons.
Borrowed from Bergson, the title refers to this opposition in which photographic artists evolve with constancy: the act of documenting the world while printing a singular look on it.
With the works of Françoise Nuñez, Jean-Louis Garnell, Marie-Paule Nègre, Max Lerouge, Michael Scheffer, Ralph Hinterkeuser, Marilyn Bridges and Martin Parr.
