The forthcoming exhibition at Esther Woerdehoff gallery looks at the photographic work of French artist Julien Mignot, presenting three distinct but interconnected series: Before the Night is Over (2011- 2023), Today, the time is close (2023) and Temps présent (2024). Brought together by the rare and meticulous Fresson printing process, these series testify to Mignot’s deep engagement with the history and perceptual limits of photography. This is the artist’s first solo exhibition at the gallery, comprising more than twenty pieces.

From June 6, 2024 to September 7, 2024

Today: Paolo Roversi confronting the enigma of the portrait.
