Born in the United States in the early 1970s, disco music quickly became a worldwide phenomenon. Casting aside the clichés, this exhibition does justice to the dazzling power of disco – a genre deeply rooted in the history and culture of black America, descended from soul, gospel and funk.
A collection of audiovisual archives, photographs, instruments, costumes, design objects and works of art underlines the political and festive dimension of this music, which has brought different minorities and social classes to the dancefloor, all united in a single hedonistic impulse. Accompanied by a soundtrack mixed by Dimitri from Paris, the exhibition emphasizes the aesthetic that disco inspired in artists and designers alike.
