Denis Proteor's Ecstatic Intoxication at Centre de la photographie de Genève

exhibition · 2026-04-23

Denis Proteor, who calls himself an 'investigator' rather than a photographer, presents his singular and mysterious work at the Centre de la photographie de Genève. For over twenty years, he has explored specific domains—the forest, the morgue, women, the disabled, birds—using photography, text, drawing, and video to produce a kind of 'archive of the living.' The exhibition runs from April 15 to May 28, 2005.
