The Louis Roederer Foundation and the Rencontres d’Arles
03/07/2019
The Louis Roederer Foundation participates in the Rencontres d’Arles for the third year as sponsor of the Louis Roederer Discovery Award
Since their creation, the Rencontres d’Arles have been a force for the promotion of photography and all its players, from photographers to exhibition curators and publishers.
In that spirit, the festival wishes to associate the Louis Roederer Discovery Award with photographic galleries considered to represent the finest pool of tomorrow’s talents. These galleries have been asked to propose an exhibition featuring an artist they support and whose work has recently been discovered, or deserves to be discovered, by an international audience. Ten projects have been selected and will be exhibited in Arles.
During the opening week, the jury will give the Louis Roederer Discovery Award to a photographer and the associated gallery with an acquisition to the value of €15,000, while the public will award its designated winner with an acquisition to the value of €5,000.
