For the first time, Paris Photo presents an original journey within the galleries: “Paris Photo seen by.”. In 2012, Paris
Photo entrusts David Lynch with the task of choosing from among the works exhibited by the gallery owners. An original
way for the public to contemplate the works whilst at the same time discovering the artist’s aesthetic universe.
“Looking at David Lynch’s selection is a bit like visiting Paris Photo in his company; a dialogue begins; we do look at
the works “together”, but first of all we look at them in a different way, through a “Lynchian” filter. Our first perception
undergoes a distortion, the reading becomes a plural one and reveals the metaphoric power of every image; I believe
it will be the same for other visitors, only that Lynch’s subconscious takes over: the body, the strangeness, the potential
narrative and the ambiguity of the image are always present.” Julien Frydman, Director of Paris Photo
