The 19th edition of Paris Photo will feature over 147 leading galleries from 34 countries in the Grand Palais, presenting both historical and Contemporary works. Joining them are 27 publishers and specialized art book dealers providing a complete panorama of the photographic medium. For the first time this year, a selection of galleries will also present photo series and large formats in a new PRISMES sector in the Salon d'Honneur. The Salon d'Honneur will also host guest collector Enea Righi, who will present major works from one of Italy's most important private collections, featuring leading artists such as Cy Twombly, Nan Goldin, and Hans-Peter Feldmann, among others. Paris Photo Platform will bring together key figures from the art world for a four-day cycle of talks focusing on three key topics: the collection, photography after the crisis, and photography and its relation to the book. In partnership with the Aperture Foundation, Paris Photo will present the 4th annual Paris Photo-Aperture Foundation Photobook Awards. Also new this year is BOOK MACHINE , an event connecting emerging designers and public participants through the creation of books. Following a call for submissions, 30 projects will be designed and presented at the fair.
