Exhibition: Un Moment si Doux 

September 3, 2014 
by Raymond Depardon 
Colour appeared in Raymond Depardon's first photographs from the very start. He was only sixteen. Since then, colour has been part of the highlights of his career: the years discovering photography, the first trips to Africa, the great reportages, then recently this "sweet moment" which gives the exhibition its title. The exhibition presents about 160 colour photographs, most unpublished. Taking colour as a guideline, it explores the artist's work and life from the late 1950s to the present day.
An exhibition organised by the Réunion des musées nationaux – Grand Palais in collaboration with Magnum Photos.
