Demarchelier at Petit Palais
Patrick Demarchelier’s sensitivity, deep sense of humanity, respect for his
subjects, and ability to unearth passion in each individual advances the museum’s
aesthetic commitment. Regardless of whether the subject is famous or unknown,
they vibrate to the frequency of the photographer’s generous gaze. And the visitor is
carried away by the life force bursting from the model’s eyes.
A museum is a source of life and a place of humanity. May all the faces of
Patrick Demarchlier’s portraits intertwined with the faces painted on Greek vases,
Dutch paintings of the XIX Century portraits… bring to all a greater love and
understanding of one another... »
