Een wereld in kleur: de betoverende stadsbeelden van Harry Gruyaert
Fotograaf Harry Gruyaert (Antwerpen, 1941) neemt ons mee op een betoverende reis door de stad. Of dat nu Brussel, Antwerpen, Tokio, New York, Parijs, Ouarzazate, Oud-Delhi of Moskou is, is daarbij van ondergeschikt belang.
Zijn fotografie is een spel van kleur, licht en vorm: intense tinten, scherpe schaduwen en grafische lijnen die samen een ritmisch geheel vormen. Bij Gruyaert zijn stedelijke ruimtes geen statische decors maar levende composities. Als een jazzmuzikant improviseert hij met wat zich aandient. Zijn beelden gaan met elkaar in gesprek en tonen ongefilterd de emoties en atmosfeer van het leven op straat.
De tentoonstelling A Sense of Place van Harry Gruyaert is te zien in de Chapelle Saint-Martin du Méjan tijdens Les Rencontres d’Arles van 6 juli tot 4 oktober 2026.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Harry Gruyaert is known for his extraordinary photographic work with color. Born in Antwerp in 1941, he originally dreamed of becoming a film director. In the late 1970s, Pop art and a trip to Morocco inspired him to become one of the first photographers in Europe to devote his work entirely to color photography. Gruyaert’s cinematographic background instilled in him an aesthetic conception of photography. Rather than telling stories or documenting the world through his lens, he searches for beauty in everyday elements. His images are simply snapshots of magical moments in which different visual aspects, primarily color, form, light and movement, spontaneously come together in front of his lens.
A member of Magnum Photos since 1982, Gruyaert has photographed extensively in the United States, Morocco, Europe, and India. He has also taken many photographs of Belgium, his native country, which have been published in two books: Made in Belgium and Roots. His many other publications, including Morocco, Rivages, East/West, Last Call, and India, testify to his ability to work in the most diverse environments. As Gruyaert states, “For me, photography is not only a matter of composition or color, it must also talk about place and time.”
Von der hinteren Coverseite
Photographer Harry Gruyaert (b. 1941) invites us on a sweeping urban journey. Whether he takes us to Brussels, Antwerp, Tokyo, New York, Paris, Ouarzazate, Old Delhi, or Moscow does not really matter. What drives the shutter release is not so much the subject, but the way it presents itself to the photographer’s eye: intense, pulsating colours, sharp outlines of shadow, and urban geometries that punctuate space like a jazz phrase―call and response. Gruyaert’s magnetic music plays out on the street, where vibrations and emotions converse.

Hardback. Zustand: New. 1st. In A Sense of Place, artist Harry Gruyaert makes cities pulse through the colors and light of his images, from Tokyo to New York, passing through Paris and Moscow. Artist Harry Gruyaert invites us on a sweeping journey through the city, freed from the usual geographic markers that structure travel. His gaze moves freely through the streets of New York, Paris, Tokyo, Moscow, Antwerp, Mumbai and Zanzibar-ultimately, the destination matters little. What unites his photographs is not their subject but the way the world presents itself to him: the vibrant intensity of color, the sharp cuts of shadow, urban geometries that punctuate space like a phrase of jazz. Yet this movement-echoing the works gathered under the title A Sense of Place, reveals another dimension of his oeuvre: a chronicle of urban life. The city becomes a stage where social interactions shape identities, where each person negotiates, in a single movement, both individuality and belonging to a collective. While his compositions and mastery of colour have often been celebrated, less attention has been paid to the place his passage through the city gives to the anonymous city dweller. In a café, on a street corner, leaning against a wall, his figures are captured in the apparent insignificance of everyday life. Nothing extraordinary drives his gaze except a curiosity free of any social hierarchy. The visual power then arises from the reconfiguration of reality through color and composition. Social rituals, architecture and muted light, caught in the moment, become strange, tender or subtly ironic. The ordinary becomes theatrical. And his immersion in familiar territories-Belgium, France-further sharpens his vision. The body of work can thus be read as a vast inquiry into modern life, conducted over more than fifty years across the globe. In doing so, it captures what unfolds within the image, while also revealing a vital energy that extends beyond the frame fixed by the photographer's eye.
