Terri Weifenbach: Jardins parisiens
The Mus茅e Delacroix is renewing its participation in the PhotoSaintGermain festival by presenting a selection of photographs by American artist Terri Weifenbach (born in 1957 in New York City and living in France).
The Mus茅e Delacroix is hosting Jardins parisiens, a project by Terri Weifenbach created as part of a commission for the City Book Paris, published by Louis Vuitton Editions. The project resonates deeply with the museum, which conceals a landscaped garden that extends and enriches the visitor experience.
鈥楤etween painters and gardens, a landscape of many layers, traces of human presence, wild and hybrid flowers, birds adapted to urban parks. Colour as definition and composition. Line and bokeh as suggestion.
I think of the energy of Cecily Brown, of Delacroix, the hues of a certain Vuillard, the natural palette of Th茅odore Rousseau, the abstractions of Joan Mitchell.
I exist in this world as I exist in the garden while photographing, wondering how to translate three dimensions into two. I record what I feel, based on my own needs. I question the fragility that coexists with the ceaseless.鈥� 鈥� Terri Weifenbach
