War Let Loose
Within the framework of a new perspective for the Museum of French History, the War let loose exhibit confronts paintings and photographs on the theme of the image of war. Symbolic snapshots of war photography and photojournalism taken around the world are confronted with the gallery's battles scenes. This confrontation invites visitors to truly think about the power and importance of images. During the exhibit each painting will be matched with a complementary or contrasting photograph. The cross-comparison between the snapshots and paintings results in a dynamic and original interpretation of both mediums and of history itself. The exhibit weaves an original dialogue around themes, encounters, and leads visitors to a new awareness of what they look at.
