Exposition Promesses tenues de Jean-Louis Fernandez > Grand Foyer culturel at Place des Arts (near the box office).

For more than a month, from ChambĂ©ry to the Avignon Festival, French photographer Jean‐Louis Fernandez followed the rehearsals for Sang des promesses, Wajdi Mouawad’s quartet consisting of Littoral, Incendies, ForĂȘts and Ciels. In close contact with the artists, he was a privileged witness to fleeting invention, the creative process and moments of searing intensity. This exhibit conveys the beauty and emotion of the experience.
