Musée de l'Holographie, Holography museum in Les Halles, Paris, France
The Musée de l'Holographie was a museum in Paris dedicated to three-dimensional images created using laser technology and holographic processes. It displayed both scientific demonstrations and artistic creations that explored the technical and creative possibilities of this imaging method.
The museum was founded in 1980 by Anne-Marie Christakis and opened at Forum des Halles in Paris, operating until 1996. After closure, portions of its collection continued through traveling exhibitions at other institutions.
The institution organized 400 exhibitions across five continents, connecting scientific innovation with artistic expression through three-dimensional imagery.
The original museum location is no longer open, but portions of its collection are displayed through traveling exhibitions held periodically at venues such as Exploradome. Check ahead to find where and when these traveling shows are scheduled.
The museum's archives, including exhibition catalogs and promotional materials, are now preserved at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France for public research. This preservation keeps the institution's legacy accessible to those studying early holographic art and science.
