Edward Hopper
Past: October 10, 2012 → January 28, 2013
Paintings by Edward Hopper (1882-1967) have the deceptive simplicity of myths, a sort of picture-book obviousness. The exhibition at the Grand Palais seeks to shed light on this complexity, which is an indication of the richness of Hopper’s œuvre.

Helmut Newton
Past: March 24 → July 30, 2012
The exhibition explores the sometimes secret fields of Newton’s provocative work, that tried to capture the beauty, eroticism and humour — even the violence — that he sensed in the social interaction within his familiar worlds. Designed by June Newton and punctuated by quotations from the photographer, it will be on both counts “Newton by Newton”.
