Zusammenfassung: | Life-size staged photographs of people standing in front of iconic paintings in the Louvre Museum, Paris. Aëgerter's Louvre photographs deal with a normal situation which is re-enacted outside the opening hours. The photographs have not been Photoshopped or manipulated in any way. The encounters are potential realities resulting from observations and earlier experiences with the Catalogue des Chefs-d'oeuvre du Musée du Louvre. The observers of Aëgerter's photographs might identify with the spectators. What are we looking at? (Homepage der Künstlerin) |

Beschreibung: | Identical reprint of: Pierre Quoniam, Le Louvre (Paris: Editions des musées nationaux, c1976), but with new versions of some of the photographic illustrations of paintings, including spectators. 48 images are replaced by photographs that Aëgerter took during three visits at the museum, "an artistic quote". She used a tourist camera and all the pictures she made during these three days. The well-known catalogue and the exhibited works look so familiar that it takes a while before you realize you find yourself in a cut and pasted-reality. It seems that the future has been incorporated in this book from the seventies, which causes a strange loop of time.
