Michael Jackson and the world of contemporary art

On the occasion of the singer’s death tenth anniversary, come and discover the exhibition « Michael Jackson: On The Wall » at the Grand Palais!

Initiated by the National Portrait Gallery of London, the exhibition shows how important Michael Jackson was to the world of contemporary art. Indeed, since 1982, when Andy Warhol first used his image, the king of pop has become the most represented figure in the visual art world. This certainly reveals that he was and remains one of the most influential figures of the last/past 50 years.

His texts, avant-garde, already raised current issues about races, sex, celebrity or even about the planet. His legacy is still very powerful, and quite impacting!
