Jeu de Paume Festival
2nd edition: Moving Landscapes
From 07 February to 23 March 2025
Jeu de Paume – Paris
After Fata Morgana in 2022, the Jeu de Paume is proud to unveil the second edition of its festival dedicated to the evolution in the contemporary image, with a programme featuring an exhibition, performances, screenings, evenings, workshops with artists, and a book.
A “Festival Pass” gives unlimited access to the exhibition and to all “Moving Landscapes” events throughout the festival. Price: €30
Moving Landscapes, presented from 7 February to 23 March 2025, is imagined as a collective narrative, combining representations of natural environments and the imaginative repertoires used to convey them. Curator Jeanne Mercier has invited screenwriter Loo Hui Phang to collaborate in the form of a voice that narrates the works—many of which were specially produced for this event—by fifteen artists, active on the current art scene. Each piece makes use of a natural space—the jungle, oasis, sky, desert, forest, etc.—associated with certain stereotypes, but offers a new imaginative repertoire to evoke them.
The festival, which gradually reveals a sensory and highly personal story of our relationship to the world, also seeks to be a space where visitors can reflect on contemporary topics, whether environmental issues, questions of identity, and migratory flows. Designed as an immersive and interactive experience, this latest edition of the festival offers the public an artistic fresco where the worlds of photography, literature, and science come together and are transformed: the landscape becomes a living and constantly shifting territory.
