Jürgen Nefzger Exhibition at Bel Œil in Nice
…EREZ LE PAYSAGE – a unique exhibition by Jürgen Nefzger at Bel Œil Nice. This showcase, built around a selection of works spanning the past twenty years, invites us to take a fresh look at the artist’s practice.
Through carefully chosen images from his major photographic series, Nefzger—together with Bel Œil—encourages us to reframe them in a more aesthetic context, without losing sight of their underlying political stance.
At the core of Jürgen Nefzger’s work is a critical gaze—one that questions society and the way we live. Yet beyond this initial layer, his images reveal a striking beauty. It emerges from his photographic treatment, his tactile awareness of texture, and his sensitivity to light.
This beauty becomes a kind of reconciliation—a way of making peace, even briefly, with a world we ourselves have shaped. The exhibition’s title, “…EREZ LE PAYSAGE”, echoes this journey. It references a photographic exploration through time, capturing a variety of modern landscapes—from suburban developments to nuclear sites. The phrase itself appears as a graffiti tag spotted on a wall by anti-nuclear activists in Bure, France.
If you look closely, the original call to action was likely: “Libérez le paysage !” (Free the landscape!) A fitting message—and perhaps a powerful path forward.
Several of Jürgen Nefzger’s works are part of the Bel Œil collection.
