EXHIBITION
This summer, Christie’s presents an exhibition dedicated to Jean‑Marie Périer, one of the most influential figures of 1960s photography. Bringing together a selection of 26 large‑format photographs, the exhibition celebrates Périer’s distinctive eye and the unique relationships he forged with the most iconic French and international personalities of his time.
Blending spontaneity with careful staging, his portraits capture the vibrant energy of a generation and the spirit of a defining cultural moment. From music to cinema, fashion and popular culture, these images bear witness to an era marked by creative freedom, youth culture and artistic innovation.
Jean‑Marie Périer’s work goes beyond celebrity portraiture: it reflects an intimate and human approach, revealing both the public personas and the private moments of his subjects. This exhibition offers a compelling immersion into the visual language of the 1960s, highlighting a body of work that continues to resonate today for its freshness, authenticity and enduring cultural impact.
