The newly announced photography festival aims to establish a vibrant connection between the French city of Arles and the Moroccan city of Marrakech, as stated by the organizing committee. This year’s edition not only celebrates the art of photography but also pays homage to Italian artistry through the works of renowned photographer Massimo Listri. The festival will feature contributions from notable artists including Graziano Arici, Antonio Denti, Priamo Tolu, and Pierpaolo Mitika, enriching the cultural tapestry of the event with diverse artistic perspectives.
Additionally, the festival will showcase a collective exhibition titled "Crossed Perspectives: China – Morocco," which will highlight a visual dialogue between photographers from both nations. This exhibition is set to explore themes of heritage and contemporary transformations, shedding light on the artistic synergies that emerge from these two distinct cultures.
Beyond the exhibitions, the festival program includes workshops, masterclasses, and roundtable discussions that will bring together stakeholders, publishers, and experts in the field of photography. These interactive sessions are designed to facilitate the exchange of ideas and foster professional partnerships, enhancing the overall experience for participants and attendees alike.
