Autophoto

An exhibition dedicated to photography’s relationship to the automobile, from 1900 to 2017. 30 years after the exhibition Hommage à Ferrari, the Fondation Cartier will once again focus its attention on the world of cars with the exhibition Autophoto dedicated to photography’s relationship to the automobile. Organized in series, Autophoto will bring together 500 works made by 80 historic and contemporary artists from around the world including Jacques-Henri Lartigue, Lee Friedlander, Rosângela Renno and Yasuhiro Ishimoto. Capturing the geometric design of roadways, the reflections in a rear-view mirror or our special relationship with this object of desire, these photographers invite us to look at the world of the automobile in a new way.

April 19–September 24, 2017

Curators: Xavier Barral and Philippe Séclier
