Exhibition on “Grenoble shadow and light” at the tourist office

Entitled “ Grenoble, shadow and light », the exhibition by the artist Cristina Pérez Giménez can be discovered in the lobby of the Grenoble tourist office until January 10, 2025, during public opening hours (see box). It is broken down into a series of sketches on white backgrounds for some and black for others.

Each one delicately evokes different places in the capital of the Alps: restaurant rooms, bars, store fronts, emblematic squares… But it is also about honoring the Alpine territory. Thus, the artist highlights spaces well known to the general public, such as the Grande Chartreuse monastery, Mont Aiguille or even the Dent de Crolles.

Born in Valencia, Spain, she explains that drawing “ has always been part of [sa] vie », which is reflected in his professional activity. She adds that her works “ capture the poetry of spaces and architectures “. With his “ unique and precise look ”, it is defined as “ designer with the soul of a photographer ».
