Paris Photo will celebrate its 15th anniversary at one of Paris’s most prestigious gallery venues, the Grand Palais. This is a major step forward for the renowned international event. This remarkable event brings together 117 galleries from some 23 countries, in which they will be presenting the best of 19th century, modern and contemporary photography in the heart of the French capital, as well as this a selection of 18 publishers will have a dedicated space in the fair.
Paris Photo this year will be celebrating African Photography from Bamako to Cape Town, unveiling the creative wealth of historic and contemporary African artists. These exciting developments put forward the new energy that Paris Photo is displaying by reinventing itself. Four programmes will articulate Paris Photo’s new identity: Institutions’ recent photography acquisitions, the platform, Private Collection from Artur Walther, focus on the Photography Book and launching of the Paris Photo – Photo Book Prize.
Below are some photographs from this acclaimed event and a five minute clip from the Paris Photo 2009.
