Exhibition Catalogue - L'intime de la chambre aux réseaux sociaux

Description

Embark on a fascinating journey to the heart of our secret gardens through a history of intimacy from the 18th century to the present day! 470 works, including paintings and photographs, as well as decorative art, everyday objects and design objects, reveal how intimacy has evolved. From the bedroom as seen by Henri Cartier-Bresson or Nan Goldin, from the wrought-iron beds of the nineteenth century to the enclosed bed of the Bouroullec brothers, from the pierced chair to the urinal for women, from the objects of the dry toilet to the bathroom, from aristocratic beauty to mass consumption, from licentious books to sex toys, from the walkman to social networks and influence, via surveillance and protection tools, the exhibition shows how intimacy has been imposed and then profoundly modified. The boundaries between private and public have become increasingly blurred and porous, giving rise to much debate.
