Autumn in Paris is all about photography! 📷
There are several events that honour photography this autumn in Paris, such as the Paris Photo fair at the Palais Éphémère, an exhibition of photographs by collector Martin Karmitz at the Centre Pompidou, the Photo Days festival, a retrospective of the pioneering photographer Julia Margaret Cameron at the Jeu de Paume, and Sophie Calle taking over the Musée Picasso. The schedule may seem overwhelming, but our playlist is here to guide you. We have curated a selection of podcasts and videos that will take you on a captivating and emotional journey into the world of photographers, both historical and contemporary.
Artist Sophie Calle recounts her serendipitous path to becoming an artist, beginning with a chance stay at a photographer’s home in Bolinas, California, and an experimental visit to a cemetery with a camera.
