We follow singer-songwriter Yael Naim on a sonorous sojourn through Fondation Louis Vuitton's exhibition halls to mark its major retrospective of Cindy Sherman’s groundbreaking photographic work. Naim sings “Leave It There”, an a capella taken from her recent EP Unreleased Nightsongs, which echoes across some 170 works produced by Sherman between 1975 and 2020.

“I feel connected to the work of Cindy Sherman and the questions she has on identity,” says Naim, who engages in a musical dialogue with towering prints of the artist dressed as a clown, donned in Greco-Roman dress, or suckling a child. “Her faces resonate with our dualities, the roles we play, and our inner quest for authenticity. She is an unexpected fugue, sometimes a capella, that confronts the mysterious echoes that resonate through me.”

Cindy Sherman at Fondation Louis Vuitton brings together more than 300 images from series including Untitled film stills, Rear Screen Projections, Fashion, History Portraits, Disasters, Headshots, Clowns, Society Portraits, Murals, and Flappers, as well as a new set of images presenting male figures and couples.

Cindy Sherman at the Fondation has been extended online until January 31st, 2021

“Leave it there” is from the EP Unreleased Nightsongs
