FRENCH VERSION
Der Ring des Nibelungen, Richard Wagner's unparalleled masterpiece, remains today still this sacred monster of the lyrical repertoire, which each director of opera house dreams of confronting himself. A work with a universal reach that, beyond its own artistic and symbolic richness, seduces with an almost infinite range of readings.
Published on the occasion of the exhibition organized by the Opéra national de Paris and the Bibliothèque nationale de France, This catalogue brings together the contributions of international specialists from the fields of musicology, art history, theatrical studies and comparative literature. It is based on a rich iconography composed of models of sets, costumes, scores, photographs, posters and works of art rarely shown.
More than an exhibition catalogue, Les Révolutions du Ring offers a dive into the history of a modern myth that, from Wagner to today's directors, continues to question our relationship with power, nature, hero and the end of worlds.
Exhibition at the Opera Library-Museum, inside the Palais Garnier from 27 October 2026 to 20 February 2027
