La carte blanche d’agnès b. 2016

2016

Since 1984, agnès b. and the “galerie du jour” have supported photography and photographers.
It is a passionate commitment to these artists whose work creates new ways of seeing the world and reflects their times.
Nan Goldin, Martin Parr, Ryan McGinley, Massimo Vitali are all photographers who began their bright careers first on the walls of rue du Jour and then on rue de Quincampoix.
It has always been about trusting young artists whose work is less often exhibited and who are less financially supported and about helping to expose their work to as many people as possible.
We are convinced in the need to support students and new graduates and even self-taught artists.
Finally, in keeping with a European tradition, photography must be a part of a communal way of thinking and cooperation.
To participate in the Festival Circulation(s) at the CENTQUATRE in 2016 is to continue on a path that was initiated more than 30 years ago.
