Rut Blees Luxemburg, L'intestin sombre de Nicolas Ledoux at Dominique Fiat, Paris, 7 November - 23 December 2021
Rut Blees Luxemburg new solo show at Dominique Fiat for Paris Photo 2021.
Rut Blees Luxemburg’s new photographic work The dark intestine of Nicolas Ledoux is a sideways approach towards the French revolutionary architect’s oeuvre. Revolving around the Saline Royale, his hybrid factory - part panopticon, part anticipated ruin - Blees Luxemburg exhibits nocturnal chimera of the imperfect Utopia.
Ledoux’s interest in the eye, the organ of visual pleasure as well as of surveillance, anticipated photography and its double-agency.
