The Espace Louis Vuitton München honours Belgian artist David Claerbout with a new exhibition, Erzähl mir das Ende, produced in the framework of the Fondation Louis Vuitton’s “Hors-les-murs” program. This program showcases previously unseen works from the Collection at the Espaces Louis Vuitton in Tokyo, Munich, Venice and Beijing, thus carrying out the Fondation’s intent to realize international projects and make them accessible to a broader public.

“The era of photography is over, and we are seeing a return of what Jean Baudrillard called 3D information, namely images that are augmented by narratives or statistics. While media dissolve into one another we are witnessing a return to the primacy of the word. Photography’s time as originating from light is over.”
