Museum Musée Guimet, Paris

The photographic research undertaken by Jean-Baptiste Huynh at the National Museum of Asian Arts - Guimet began several years ago around the collection of mirrors, which became celestial bodies under his gaze.

Jean-Baptiste Huynh offers the public, in a form of retrospective of his work and a privileged encounter with the museum, an intensely personal Asia, imprinted with the grandeur and the influence of all the faces seen during a story of passion and of fascination.

Jean-Baptiste Huynh was born in France in 1966, of a French mother and a Vietnamese father. Self-taught, he learned photographic, lighting and printing techniques. From 2006 to 2012, he carried out a study on light through five series collected in the book "Lumière" which accompanied the personal exhibition that the Louvre museum devoted to him in 2012, bringing together images inspired by the museum's collections. Laureate of the Villa Medici outside the walls, Jean-Baptiste Huynh exhibits in various galleries and museums around the world.
