More than five years after Daft Punk called it quits, the duo’s story continues to find new ways forward. A new photography exhibition, Around The World, will open in Paris later this month. It offers fans a rare look at Daft Punk before and after the helmets.
The exhibition runs from November 20 through 22 at 114 Rue de Turenne in Paris’ Marais district. Doors will open from 10 AM to 7 PM each day.
Around The World brings together roughly 60 photographs covering the duo’s journey between 1995 and 2005. Several images have never previously been displayed publicly. The collection traces the evolution of Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo across an important decade in their career. Early portraits capture the two without their famous helmets. Later photographs document the robot identities that eventually became synonymous with Daft Punk.
Nine photographers feature across the exhibition, including Tetsuro Sato, Rick Guest, Zach Cordner, Philippe Levy and Seb Janiak. Some of the photographers will also meet visitors during the three-day run.
The project came together through five longtime fans: Lenny Houari, Guillaume Vidal, Stéphane Kazazian, Benjamin Felix and Landry Thomas.
