The evening tours have special themes that introduce you to a particular aspect of an exhibition or explore a subject in greater detail with a guide. Learn about a specific element of art history and take some time to understand the works in a new perspective.

Framing, poses, decoration and lighting all play a part in creating an image, and can help us to analyse it. Cindy Sherman prepares her photographs down to every last detail. Nothing is left to chance. Through the works of the American photographer as well as those of Samuel Fosso, Zanele Muholi and Andy Warhol, these tours examine photographic techniques and the importance of constructing the image.

This tour is organised in conjunction with the Cindy Sherman at The Fondation Louis Vuitton exhibition.
