Ambre Blondeau, a former student of the Professional Master in Cultural Project Management, is organizing her 1st exhibition as an exhibition curator: Vilaines parisiennes.
The exhibition Vilaines Parisiennes challenges the stereotypical iconography of the Parisian woman, whose social and symbolic visibility is deeply rooted. Faced with the ultra-formatted photographs that invade public space and tyrannically advocate uniformity of faces and bodies, the aim is to highlight multiplicity and difference rather than “copy-conformity.”
The three photographers, Marie Bouhiron, Stéphanie Pfeiffer (Gueules de Parisiens) and Kevin Doolan (Midlife in Paris), share an attachment to urban culture. They tell their own story of the Parisian woman in their own way.
The Folies Bergère, a legendary venue of Parisian life for three centuries, has placed women at the heart of its performances and has welcomed great activists such as Colette and Joséphine Baker. They embody the feminine singularity that we wish to highlight.
