Exhibition Kourtney Roy - All Inclusive
Regards croisés sur le tourisme mondialisé
From February 20 to September 20, 2026

A first-ever exhibition devoted to the work of the Canadian photographer, exhibited at Rencontres d'Arles in 2025.

Through a selection of thirty photographs, the exhibition invites the public to plunge into Kourtney Roy's sensitive, colorful and cinematic universe. Perfect beaches, glamorous hotels, cloudless skies: the artist revisits the idealized images of contemporary tourism to better reveal its ambivalences. Her stagings, both seductive and disturbing, confront the dream of vacations with a more complex reality.

In resonance with these works, the Cité de l'Économie offers an economic reading of globalized tourism, inviting visitors to decipher its contemporary issues: social inequalities, environmental impact, the weight of marketing strategies, the transformation of territories...

A luminous, hard-hitting exhibition that questions our imaginations and makes us want to travel differently!
