Enjoyment | Freedom | Recklessness - Le Palace by Arnaud Baumann

Paris From April 22, 2023 to May 14, 2023

Presentation

Exhibition of art photographs taken during the nights at the Palace (1978 - 1983).

April 1978, the Palace opens its doors. Like the famous Studio 54 in New York, this must-see Parisian nightclub left its mark well beyond its walls and remains, even today, the symbol of enjoyment, freedom and carelessness. Its evenings, without compromise, bring together, alongside French and international stars from the world of music, fashion or cinema, people who come to party without taboos and without limits. A melting pot punctuated by the sounds of pleasure, drunkenness and disinhibition makes this place one of the pillars of the emergence of gay culture.

Markers of an era and a carefree vision of life, the extravagance and freedom of the Palace's parties will never be equaled.

The famous portrait painter Arnaud Baumann made his debut there. For five years, he roams amid explosions of life and pleasure to offer us a unique vision: documentary and visual photography whose long exposures make the colored lasers twirl and transport us to the heart of the party. His images, authentic and uninhibited, arouse in us the desire to reconnect with the lightness of the time, to be able to be free.

For its first exhibition, Studio Idan offers you an exhilarating journey through the history of the Palace to discover works that are as aesthetic as they are rich in meaning and history.
