Pinault Collection, the City of Rennes, and the Rennes Métropole Agency have renewed their collaboration on the occasion of a thematic exhibition titled "Les yeux dans les yeux" at the Couvent des Jacobins.
The exhibition 'Les yeux dans les yeux' traverses the history of art, speaks to us of the relationship between the images we have of ourselves and others in the era of social media, summons the notion of disappearance and the occasional inability to capture a face, an expression, a spirit, an attitude, a soul. Masked gazes mix with frank ones. Intimacy thus brushes up against eternity.
