Exhibition: William Eggleston


American photographer William Eggleston was a color pionneer. He was also the first one to consider daily life as a source of artworks. The Fondation Henri Cartier Bresson presents a hundred of clichés taken by the artist at a turning-point of his career: when he definitely quit black and white for color photography. The retrospective also shows Eggleston's obsessions, like food and waiting. You will discover men and women he photographed in their daily life, most often in supermarkets, bars and service stations.

Exhibition: "William Eggleston : From Black and White to Color", from September 9th to December 21st 2014.
Open Tuesday - Sunday from 1pm to 6:30pm, on Saturday from 11am to 6:45pm.
Free late opening on Wednesday from 6:30pm to 8:30pm.
Full rate: €7 / Concession: €4.
