Paris Photo 2012

With 135 galleries and publishers coming from twenty or so countries and more than 50,000 visitors, Paris Photo presents the best of photography from its origins to today. Heightened by its arrival at the Grand Palais, the Fair displays the richness and vitality of historical and contemporary photographic creation.

In addition, each year Paris Photo welcomes a rich programming that celebrates “a private collection”, “the recent acquisitions” of three major international institutions, an “open book” exhibition on a cult book on the history of photography, the Prize for the Book of the Year, a platform of interviews and round tables that gather together an exceptional panel of around fifty participants.
