Since 2005, Corinne Vionnet’s work has focused on mass tourism and the circulation of images. In ‘Paris Paris Paris’, the Swiss artist turns her attention to one of Europe’s most photographed cities, finding numerous sites and monuments that feed an uninterrupted flow of images. She transforms the raw material she works with, namely, standardised snapshots of hyper-frequented places that directly feed social networks. Vionnet’s images, which reveal nothing of the considerable work involved in their creation (archive research, crowdsourcing, collage), question our collective memory and the behaviour inherent in tourism. Why do we always take and share the same images?
