"But what were these people going through?": Heritage exhibition.

A hundred years ago, the people of Bligny left traces of their lives through a collection of Louis-Lumière photographic plates and autochromes. But what were they really living?

Association du Centre Hospitalier de Bligny

This new heritage exhibition from the centuries-old archives and old photographic collections of the Association of the Centre Hospitalier de Bligny completely changes the situation.

It is no longer a question -as in previous editions- of presenting portraits and group photos of the "Bligny people" of the past century, and of leaving the public to its fleeting and imprecise impressions alone, without giving anything more.
This time, the concept is based on images never seen before, put into perspective and confronted with our ability to apprehend what lies behind.
This opens the imagination of visitors more widely by proposing series of photos that take us on a dreamlike and imaginative journey to go even further.

But towards where then?

To review, a second after a person already seen, but from another angle, another point of life, at another time, in another place, with other people gives much more information than a simple cliché.
Discovering a place or a characteristic element of the decor where the "people of Bligny" of 1911 evolved, then passing to its logical, natural, obvious or impromptu follow-up brings much more spacio-temporal information on the way of life of those we observe, about their inner life, even their secrets.
But that’s not all...

And we can’t tell you everything in advance...

Because the surprise of these new assemblies brings us closer to those people who lived there more than a hundred years ago now.
You will have to make the journey yourself; through time; smell the air; feel, grasp, see and hear... what has disappeared forever and yet is given to us to rediscover...

For the first and perhaps last time.

À propos du lieu

Théâtre de Bligny - Compagnie du Théâtre de Bligny
Centre hospitalier 91640 Fontenay-lès-Briis
  • Essonne
  • Île-de-France
The theatre of Bligny was built within the sanatoriums of Bligny to "educate and entertain the residents of the sanatoriums", high point of a project "artistico-pedagogical" engaged in 1903.
The Théâtre de Bligny (architect: A. Colin) was inaugurated on Tuesday 19 September 1934\. Dr Urbain Guinard, who became physician-director at the end of 1939, greatly appreciated the cabaret singers; in his youth he had dreamed of becoming one of them.
From 1942, on his initiative, the theatre was regularly transformed into "Cabaret de la Longue Chaise".
Since the war, artists regularly "try" their new shows on the Bligny public.
Apart from the plays and the cabaret, it serves for the patronal feasts of Saint Louis, for Saint Catherine, the reception of the generous donors of the sanatoriums with the complicity of the stars, and for some feasts of Saint Nicholas.
It is also a cinema since its opening. In Bligny were held several film premieres by the authors Noël-Noël and Pierre Cardinal as well a
