Bressaï - Pour l'Amour de Paris exposition


Bressaï - For the Love of Paris exhibition
November 8, 2013 - March 8, 2014


This free exhibit at Hôtel de Ville is a delight for photographers and everyone who sighs at the romance of Paris.  Even in the first week of opening, the wait was less than 15 minutes on a weekday in November.


The Brassaï, Pour l'amour de Paris
exhibition tells the extraordinary
story of the passion that has united 
for more than 50 years Brassai, the
writer, photographer and moviemaker,
to every nook and cranny of Paris,
but also to intellectuals, artists,
great families, prostitutes and little rascals.

In short, to everyone who defines the
legend of Paris.  Paris remains indeed
in the heart of his reflection, the
governing theme of his work.

Put this one on your list

SO glad I made it to this exhibit (and thank you). My wait was a tad longer, but mainly because of the dumb things people didn't leave home before going through a metal detector (like the woman in front of me who had a pair of scissors in her purse!). Still, worth the wait for sure.
