Workshop 2023

How to add value to your photo projects ?

—

During two intense weekends of professional practice, Fetart collective accompanies participants to make concrete progress on their projects in order to make the best presentation of them. Valuing an existing photographic work, presenting it to an audience, expanding your network and advice for future projects: the objective is to step back with a note of intent, a coherent portfolio and all the keys to pitch their projects!

A 4-day workshop led by Laetitia Guillemin, curator, iconographer and teacher at Les Gobelins, and Marie Guillemin, curator and communication specialist — both members of the artistic direction of the Fetart collective.

// This workshop is conducted in French
