Encompassing ten simultaneous exhibitions in various venues, the festival presents visitors with a wide spectrum of portrait photography. This year’s offerings include the poetic series Place Blanche by Swedish photographer Christer Strömholm, capturing a group of transsexual women in late 1950s Paris. Also featured is the understated and skilfully composed Camouflage and Disputing by Liu Bolin.
The Centre Culturel Valery-Larbaud presents a comprehensive group exhibition by members of Modd – a French agency predominantly dedicated to portrait photography. Pierre Gonnord’s Light of the Soul, an almost melancholy portrait series of young people, will be showing at the same venue.
