Paris Photo 08

Paris Photo 08 - Event details   11/13/2008 - 11/16/2008 CARROUSEL DU LOUVRE, Paris, FRANCE   Description Since it first began more than a decade ago, Paris Photo has won recognition as the world's premier fair for still photography. This unique event offers a panorama of fine art photography from its early days to the present day, and presents a forward-looking overview of global trends and expressions available in this medium. The 2008 edition, which brings together some one hundred galleries and publishers from around the world, will coincide with Paris Photography Month, making the City of Lights the international epicentre of art photography. Paris Photo was created in 1997 by Rik Gadella, a Dutch publisher, who managed to bring together at the prestigious Carrousel du Louvre a potent mix of galleries that championed photographers of the “photographie pure” movement as well as contemporary artists working with photography. Paris Photo soon became the world’s first photography fair, owing to the high quality of the exhibitors, the originality of the concept (a balance of 19th century, modern and contemporary photography), its international scope (over 70% of exhibitors come from abroad) and its discerning, enthusiastic audience ranging from collectors of antique photographs to lovers of contemporary art. In 2002, Paris Photo was taken over by Reed Expositions France which owns and organises the event. Every year, Paris Photo highlights a specific foreign scene.
