· re:union Radio editorial · 1 min read
Opening in Paris this November, the pop-up exhibition Around The World features around 60 photographs documenting Daft Punk from 1995 to 2005.
A temporary photography exhibition focusing on Daft Punk is set to open in Paris. Entitled Around The World, the event runs from 20th to 22nd November at 114 Rue de Turenne in the Marais district, opening daily from 10AM to 7PM.
Focus on the Years 1995 to 2005
The presentation features around 60 photographs, many of which have not been publicly displayed before. Covering the era between 1995 and 2005, the collection ranges from early portraits of the duo without helmets to pictures of their robot personas. Works by nine photographers are included, such as:
- Tetsuro Sato
- Rick Guest
- Zach Cordner
- Philippe Levy
- Seb Janiak
Visitors will have the opportunity to meet several of the featured photographers during the event.
Curated by Fans
The project was put together by five fans: Lenny Houari, Guillaume Vidal, Stéphane Kazazian, Benjamin Felix, and Landry Thomas. Starting in 2024, the group searched for visual documentation of the duo's early era. Being too young to have experienced the concerts in person, they contacted photographers who worked for international music magazines, unearthing images rarely seen since their print publications.
Advance reservations are required to enter. Prior to their 2021 split, the duo previously presented their Technologic installation in Paris during the Philharmonie de Paris exhibition Electro: From Kraftwerk to Daft Punk. Furthermore, science fiction magazine Métal Hurlant announced a 272-page comic anthology about the Daft Punk universe scheduled for 2027.
