LE BAL - Yasuhiro Ishimoto exhibition
As an Inalco student, you'll receive 20% off the purchase of a ticket for the Yasuhiro Ishimoto au Bal exhibition, from October 14 to November 17, 2024. A code will be sent via the newsletter Culture et loisirs.
From June 19 to November 17, 2024, LE BAL presents a remarkable figure in the history of Japanese photography, yet little known in France: Yasuhiro Ishimoto (1921-2012). For the first time in Europe, the exhibition, organized in close collaboration with the Ishimoto Yasuhiro Photo Center at the Museum of Art, Kochi, Japan, brings together 169 rare prints, most of them vintage and made by Ishimoto himself. The exhibition focuses on the first decades of his work, between Chicago and Japan. A key figure of the 1950s and 1960s, he would be considered "visually bilingual" for his ability to combine the formal approach of the New Bauhaus with the quintessence of Japanese aesthetics.
