PARIS, near and far

November 11th is the Armistice/Veterans/Remembrance Day national holiday in France. If you have no idea what to do and have not ever heard of the Museum of the Romantic Life (Musée de la Vie Romantique in French), you can take advantage of this holiday to check out the current exhibition, entitled "Paris-proche et lointain (Paris-near and far) ", at the museum by the Paris-born French photographer Patrick Faigenbaum. The interesting thing about this exhibition is its unity of settings in and around Paris, close and far geographicaly as well as near and far to the preceding works of the photographer. There are some truly beautiful images that are worth to enjoy especially at this hidden and unusual museum in Paris.  The exhibition will end on February 12th, 2012.
