Maison Européenne de la Photographie, Ville de Paris

Written By Helen Stead

Today I paid a visit to what's now probably one of my favourite photography galleries in Paris. Located just a short walk from Saint-Paul metro station, Maison Europeenne de la Photographie is currently exhibiting the work of 7 contemporary artists with work encompassing projections, installation, neon text sculptures and of course, photographic prints.One of my favourite exhibiting collections was 'Images et Musique' published by Actes Sud, with photographs by Michael Ackerman, Pascal Dusapin and Alain Fleischer and musical pieces Berg, Schoenberg and Webern.Michael Ackerman, Musique d' Arnold Schoenberg
