Visa pour l’Image at La Villette

Photographie · · Paris

19.09.20 → 20.09.20

Free Admission

See the 32nd International Festival of Photojournalism Visa pour l’Image-Perpignan in Paris in 2020.
Visa pour l’Image offers a broad view of the world, and every year the city of Perpignan becomes an international hub.  While there are no natural disasters, snipers or razor wire to be seen, there are plenty of photojournalists and exhibitions at a number of venues open to the general public, with color and black & white reports of experiences and lives around the world spanning many different horizons.
In Paris, La Villette will be showing Visa pour l’Image for the third time, featuring the 32nd festival, helping build a bridge between Perpignan and Paris so that audiences in Paris can have the Perpignan experience of reporting from around the world.
In the Grande Halle (“Espace Charlie Parker”) at La Villette in northern Paris, a selection of reports will be projected on a giant screen, taking the pictures well beyond the scale of the pages of a newspaper or magazine.  The program, scheduled twice, will be presented by Jean-François Leroy and Pauline Cazaubon.

  • 8pm, Saturday, September 19, 2020
  • 4pm, Sunday, September 20, 2020

(Same program on both days. Free admission, to maximum seating capacity.)

Outside, in the Parc de la Villette, a selection of photos from the 2020 exhibitions in Perpignan will be on display from September 18 to November 2.
