Sophie Ristelhueber at Musée Zadkine, Paris

exhibition · 2026-04-23

Sophie Ristelhueber presented an exhibition at the Musée Zadkine in Paris from November 14, 2002 to February 23, 2003. The show featured her photographic works, which often explore themes of conflict, landscape, and the traces of human intervention. Ristelhueber is known for her aerial views of war-torn territories and close-ups of scarred surfaces, such as the series 'Fait' (1992) documenting Kuwaiti oil fields after the Gulf War. The exhibition at Musée Zadkine, a museum dedicated to the sculptor Ossip Zadkine, juxtaposed her contemporary photography with the artist's sculptural environment. This contrast highlighted the dialogue between destruction and creation, absence and presence. The show was reviewed in artpress magazine in March 2003.
