ARLES 2024 - LES RENCONTRES DE LA PHOTOGRAPHIE

ARLES

55th EDITION OF THE RENCONTRES DE LA PHOTOGRAPHIE
FROM JULY 1 TO SEPTEMBER 29

"Tremors and tremoil, spirits, traces, parallel readings and rereadings all constitute new perspectives underlying the 2024 edition of the Rencontres d'Arles. Photographers, artists and curators reveal their visions and stories, not least that of our humanity, by turns thwarted, in endless redefinition, resilient, but also visionary. Whether on the margins or established at the center, the narratives lead to divergent, multiple paths, all emanating from the faults in a porous surface: they intertwine, superimpose and overlap. It's an exciting time, as this ensemble opens a plurality of itineraries to follow"

Christoph Wiesner, Director of Rencontres d'Arles
