Contemporary Art Paris

Contemporary Art in Paris

Contemporary art and photography in Paris is the theme of this illustrated site. Some facets of contemporary art are discussed in detail, from abstract theory to everyday examples, to make contemporary art more accesible. The site will be updated regularly, as I visit and comment upon ongoing exhibitions in Paris ("Places") and, add contemporary art resources ("Theory") relevant to the Parisian shows. The site contains information on many artists ("Artists"), some of which may be non-contemporary. It also contains a discussion of some classic essays and books on art and photography which the reader may consult to get a better view on my theoretical position. I hope you will enjoy this personal view on contemporary art brought to you from Paris, one amongst many capitals of the Arts.

Feel free to send me feedback at (troostjan AT gmail.com).

Disclaimer: The site is not meant to be encyclopedic, nor objective, but rather instructive and original.
