Ryan McGinley presents around twenty large-format photos taken last summer. Full of colour (and nudity), it’s his first exhibition for the gallery.

Sophie Calle tackles the subject of stolen paintings. At the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, the frames of paintings stolen in 1990 have been placed back where the paintings once hung. Calle has asked visitors to describe what they see in these ’empty’ spaces.

Another part of the exhibition asks guards and curators of collections from which works have been stolen to describe the works in question.

The exhibitions Sophie Calle “Last Seen” et Ryan McGinley “Body Loud” are at the Galerie Perrotin (here) until 11th January 2014

Open Tuesday – Saturday from 11am – 7pm
