Jeu de Paume

The Jeu de Paume is an art centre in Paris, presenting mechanical and electronic images from the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Photography, cinema, and video installations form its clearest visual territory. It also brings together online creations, exhibitions, film programmes, and educational activities for audiences encountering visual culture. Established and emerging artists share this programme.

Since 2007, the centre has developed a dedicated online creation space for web-based projects and thematic presentations. Film cycles focus on documentary, experimental, art-house, and autobiographical cinema. They often accompany exhibitions or honour major figures in independent filmmaking through connections between artists and filmmakers. Symposia and seminars extend these visual-culture conversations. At the Château de Tours, the institution presents heritage exhibitions built around donations and archive collections. These activities invite public dialogue about images and meaning, while cultural programmes include visitors with special needs. One detail stays with the place: its work moves from photographic images to cinema, video, and creations made for the web.
