About PARIS PHOTO
Paris Photo is the premier international art fair for works in the photographic medium. The Fair will be held in Paris' historical Grand Palais from the 13th to the 16th of November, 2014 and will host 165 galleries and art book dealers.
Renowned for its innovative and high-level programming, Paris Photo is a key event for collectors and art world professionals, as well as photography enthusiasts. Extensive programming includes special exhibitions for the following sectors:
- The "Private Collection" exhibition introduces visitors to the pioneering role played by private collectors who, driven by their own passion and perseverance, gathere masterpieces and develop new approaches.
- The "Recent Acquisitions" exhibition presents the new photography collections from international institutions.
- "Open Book" honors the role of the photo book in the history of the medium.
In partnership with the Aperture Foundation, Paris Photo has established the Paris PhotoBook Awards, celebrating the ever evolving role of the photobook in the narrative of photography. Prize categories include: First Photobook, Photobook of the Year, and Catalogue of the Year.
The Paris Photo Platform brings together key figures in the international art community for a cycle of conversations, interviews, debates and performances organized by guest curators.
The Fair is enriched by the support and participation of our partners, such as the Giorgio Armani Acqua exhibition program; selected works from JPMorgan Chase Art Collection; presentations from BMW Art and Culture and Leica; and SFR Jeunes Talents.
