This exhibition at OstLicht Gallery presents a humorous and upbeat homage to Paris by Magnum legend Elliott Erwitt. Featuring 56 photographs, it captures the artist's unique perspective on the city's boulevards, cafes, and everyday life with elegant lightness and warm-hearted humor.
Galerie OstLicht dedicates this exhibition to Elliott Erwitt's enduring fascination with Paris, his city of birth. Since the 1940s, Erwitt has repeatedly returned to the metropolis, capturing its essence with the keen eye of a flâneur. The exhibition features 56 of his humorous and upbeat photographs, showcasing his ability to find the special in the everyday across boulevards, street cafés, gardens, and cabarets. Erwitt's work is renowned for its elegant lightness and a sharp-tongued, warm-hearted humor that has left an indelible mark on photography. His images persistently seem to wink at the viewer, shaping both his commissioned work and freelance photography. This characteristic view imbues his political reportages and everyday observations with an emotional complexity that transcends the captured moment. The motifs featured in this exhibition were personally selected by Elliott Erwitt from his "Paris" series, previously shown at the Chanel Nexus Hall in Tokyo in 2012, and are now presented at Galerie OstLicht in Vienna.
