Bringing together more than 350 photographs and documents by some 120 photographers, Corps à corps offers an unprecedented look at photographic representations of the human race in the 20th and 21st centuries. It brings together two photographic collections: the public collection of the Musée National d'Art Moderne and the private collection of collector Marin Karmitz.

Booking

On June 10th, 2022, the Centre Pompidou accepted a donation of 921 works by 242 artists from the private collection of Bruno Decharme. This very important collection is now exhibited in a dedicated room on the Museum's fifth floor, where the works exhibited will change every six months. This rotation of works demonstrates the richness of this exceptional collection, which represents around one-sixth of Bruno Decharme's estate.

Mission Recherche

By featuring numerous works from its collections, the Centre Pompidou highlights the artistic contribution to the struggles waged against the LGBTQIA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer, intersex, asexual, +) communities since the beginning of the 20th century. More than five hundred works and documents are brought together to show how the involvement of artists at the time transformed representations of so-called "minority" sexualities, and accompanied this emancipation movement, in both its clandestine and openly militant forms.

With Nicolas Liucci-Goutnikov, conservateur et chef de la Bibliothèque Kandinsky
