With comparisons to painting and cinema, it tells the story – through key works – of the evolution of this form, as well as the values associated with it according to the different periods and photographic practices.
From Alfred Stieglitz to Gerhart Richter, and including Auguste Rodin, Man Ray, William Klein, Jan Groover and Sarah Moon, one can perceive the richness of blur, which often evokes an element and its opposite, whether in its relationship to reality or to mimesis, in its bourgeois and revolutionary affinities, in its relationship to amateurism and expertise, or in the technical virtuosity that it evokes, or on the contrary the primary defect it indicates. | | | | |

"Bouquet de pavots d’Orient", 1892–1910

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. The museum holds the largest collection of plates made by Lippmann himself. | | | | | | | | | Gabriel et/ou Laurence Lippmann
"Mont Cervin", 1893-1910
© Collections Photo Elysée | | | | | | | To better understand the complexity of interference photography, Photo Elysée joined forces with the AudioVisual Communications Laboratory (LCAV) of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL). This partnership not only allowed us to study the process, but also to explain it and present it to the public in an innovative way. In this exhibition, the display cases in which the plates are presented required research at the EPFL to create a unique lighting system, adapted to the observation of each original image. | | | | | | unsubscribe here
