Pierre-Elie de Pibrac — In Situ
Chanel Nexus Hall
3-5-3 Ginza, Chuo-ku, Tokyo 104-0061
From March to April, 2020
The ballet dancers who enchant audiences with their brilliant performances upon the world’s greatest stage at the Paris Opera. Pierre-Elie de Pibrac captures the almost mythical beauty of these dancers in his series of photographs, In Situ. In order to create this work, he entered into the lives of the corps de ballet, sharing their experiences backstage at the Palais Garnier and Opéra Bastille, and the photographs that resulted from this possess a unique beauty that is almost equal to that of the Paris Opera and the dancers themselves.
The exhibition will present carefully selected works from among the three-part In Situ series.
