Exploring clubbing culture through photography
With its new exhibition The Beat goes on !, the Quai de la Photo takes us on a journey through decades of clubbing culture. From its birth in the 1970s within the African American, Latin, and queer communities of New York to European raves in industrial wastelands, clubbing culture is unveiled in a selection of international photographs. It’s a vibrant and inclusive celebration of these havens of freedom, sharing, love, desire, struggles, and transformation.
