CaixaForum Madrid becomes the epicentre of experimental photography
Madrid, 1 December 2022
- ”la Caixa” Foundation’s cultural centre in Madrid hosts the premiere of an exhibition that takes visitors on a journey through the history of experimental photography. The show, seen for the first time, was produced in cooperation with the Musée national d’art moderne – Centre national d’art et de culture Georges Pompidou of Paris.
- Featuring 172 works by 107 artists, the exhibition explores a branch of photography that has attracted numerous artists and professionals from different disciplines and places, such as Man Ray, László Moholy-Nagy, Lisa Oppenheim, Florence Henri, William Klein, Brassaï, André Breton, Rudolf Steiner, Barbara Kruger, Constantin Brancusi, Olafur Eliasson, Paul Éluard, Barbara Morgan and Suzanne Muzard, among many others.
- Far from taking a linear, chronological approach, Extended Visions: Photography and Experimentation constructs a narrative of experimental photography from the early-twentieth century to the present by establishing dialogues between historic and contemporary works, highlighting affinities and analogies between artists from different periods and movements.
