St Remy Photo Expo Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis is a Must See
If you are in the Alpilles this summer, head to the centre of St Remy de Provence to Espace Hôtel de Lagoy. This elegant space was once a private mansion named in honor of its owner, Jean-Baptiste Florentin Gabriel Meyran de Lagoy (1764 -1829). The Marquis de Lagoy was a notable political figure and a collector of 18th-century drawings.
After an extensive restoration project, Espace Hôtel de Lagoy was opened as an exhibition space for exclusive shows. Previous shows included “Marilyn Monroe, America’s Secret” and “Pablo Picasso Rendez-Vous.” These exhibitions are joint projects with the Maison Templar publishing house.
St Remy Photo Expo this Summer
In recognition of the 30th anniversary of Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis’ death, the current exhibition runs until September 29, 2024. Don’t miss “Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis, Parlez-moi d’amour” with its collection of 200 historical photos, many of which have not previously been seen, along with informational write-ups by David Lawerence. In addition, there is a reconstruction of President John F. Kennedy’s Oval Office and a short film showing the funeral proceedings on November 23-25, 1963, in Washington, DC.
