Brassai: Secret Paris

This exhibition will present the most comprehensive survey of the work of the eminent Hungarian-born, French photographer Brassaï yet to be seen in Australia.

With a focus on the artist's iconic images of the city and its people by night, the exhibition will also consider his friendship with Picasso and other leading figures of the Parisian avant-garde, his experiments with Surrealism, and his hallmark photographs of graffiti.

Produced in collaboration with the artist's estate, this survey brings together more than 150 vintage prints and offers a fascinating visual journey into the intimate world of Paris in the 1930s.

Curator/s
Emmanuelle de l'Ecotais, Lesley Harding and Philippe Ribeyrolles.
