Fables and Other Stories
7 February 2025 – 1 June 2025

The exhibition Fables and Other Stories, unveils a selection of Karen Knorr’s most recent photographs. Her latest series are like testimonies of History or reflections of cultural traditions. The artist weaves scenes where architecture and animals meet in powerful and poetic compositions. Behind her new creations, the artist invites us to reflect on the world, to decipher hidden messages and to apprehend reality from multiple facets.

The India Song series captures the vibrant soul of India, between ancestral rites and modern heritages. In Fables, the artist plays with the codes of propriety of prestigious French places. Scavi takes us to the remains of Pompeii, exploring archaeology as a metaphor for time that erases and reveals. Finally, Monogatari immerses us in a dreamlike universe of Japanese tales.

Each image is a journey, a visual tale where art and culture come to life through photographs that question, amaze and fascinate.
