4th edition of the Parliament of Photography
The Parliament of Photography is a place of exchange and dialogue between all actors in the world of photography.
4th edition of the Parliament of Photography
June 8 and 9, 2023 - Palais de Tokyo
New horizons for the photography
The Ministry of Culture renews in June 2023 the holding of the Parliament of photography with its 4th edition in a hybrid form allowing great accessibility to the event: two days of face-to-face and online meetings from the Palais de Tokyo.
Attentive to current and new issues in the sector, the Parliament of Photography strives to report, explain and debate the subjects that animate photography and its ecosystem.
Four main themes paint a portrait of a sector that deals with major societal and cultural issues: eco-responsibility and ecological transition, the photographer’s career-author, image education and finally the market and technological future of photography.
Eleven round tables and meetings will punctuate the two days of Parliament, inviting more than forty personalities from the world of photography (photographers, journalists, historians, directors of structures, network managers, teachers, lawyers, etc.) to nurture a rich and diverse program reflecting the plurality of issues in photography.
