Created in 2020 by Emmanuelle de l'Ecotais, Photo Days proposes to bring together all the events relating to the image in Paris, from November 1 to 30.
Nearly 50 galleries and 12 institutions are partners of the event, and the Photo Days association is organizing six exhibitions: “The Crown Letter” at the Fiminco Foundation (Romainville), “Jane & Louise Wilson” at the Sorbonne Artgallery,
"Noémie Goudal"
at Gare de l'Est, "Anaïs Tondeur" at We Are_, "Daniel Blaufuks"
at Rotonde Balzac and "Valérie Belin" at the Franck Horvat Studio.
Photo Days offers you a circuit that connects galleries, photo events and institutions.
A total of 80 places are partners of the event.
Historical photographer or young designer, documentary photography, travel, fashion, nude ... the course allows you to discover all aspects of the 8th art!
The 12 partner institutions are: the Swiss Cultural Center, the Pompidou Center, the CPIF, the MahJ, the Azzedine Alaïa Foundation, the Fondazione Sozzani, the Hungarian Institute, the Jeu de Paume, LE BAL, the MEP, the Musée de l 'Army and the Museum of Decorative Arts.
There are also 49 partner galleries such as Galerie XII where you can find the work of Mona Khun, Les filles du calvaires where the violent and troubled work carried out in Mexico by Antoine D'Agata is exhibited, or the Galerie Arnaud Lefebvre which shows the New York punk scene of the 1980s captured by Catherine Ceresole, all this in free access, as in all the galleries!
On the Instagram network, Photo Days is also organizing a large amateur photo contest on the theme of “Paris by Night”, in partnership with the Tourist Office and Leica.
A Leica Q2 camera and a winning photo print are up for grabs.
For professional photographers, a “Paris Vert” Photography Grand Prize endowed with 15,000 euros will be awarded in partnership with the Paris Tourist Office.
The call for applications runs from October 15 to November 15.
The two winners will be announced during an evening at the Sorbonne on Friday, November 26.
As part of its mission, the Photo Days association is also developing the training and education sectors, with free portfolio readings for photographers, and the organization of a conference in partnership with the Sorbonne, the November 27.
At a time when Paris traditionally becomes the world capital of photography with the international fair “Paris Photo” (November 11-14), Photo Days offers a total photographic immersion in the capital.
Here you will find the interactive map of all the places that host photo events.
