수집: Thierry Dreyfus

Working with one of the most elusive and often underappreciated elements – light – Thierry Dreyfus has explored many of its intangible facets: illuminating the Grand Palais for its reopening in 2005 (a commission of the French Ministry of Culture), he bedazzled over 500 000 visitors, then, through a series of vertical light beams, he elevated the Gardens of Versailles. Recently, he plunged Notre Dame de Paris into darkness only to poetically enlighten it from within during the 2010 Nuit Blanche (a commission by the City of Paris). All in all, over the past 30 years, Thierry Dreyfus has come to sculpt, draw and project light onto prints, objects, scenographies and historical monuments in endless creative ways.
