In 2026, the 29th edition of Paris Photo takes place at a historic moment: the Bicentennial of Photography.
Edition 2026
An edition marking the bicentennial of photography
Two hundred years after the invention of the medium, the fair will bring together galleries, artists, publishers, institutions and collectors from around the world at the Grand Palais.
Founded in 1997, Paris Photo has supported the evolution of photography and image-based art within the international art market. Each year, the fair presents a highly curated selection of works spanning eras, from historic prints to the most contemporary practices.
Analog processes, large-scale formats, installations, photobooks and digital experiments will unfold beneath the glass roof of the Grand Palais.
The fair is structured around five sectors: Main, which includes the large-scale Prismes projects, Voices, Digital, Emergence and Book.
The Voices sector will be curated by guest curators Zasha Colah and Francesco Zanot.
The Digital sector will be curated by Marco de Mutiis.
Supported by the French Ministry of Culture, the Elles × Paris Photo program will continue its commitment to increasing the visibility of women photographers. Curated by a guest curator to be announced soon, this special path will highlight artists presented at the fair.
To mark the Bicentennial of Photography, a specially conceived guest collection will enrich the program, alongside Conversations and Book Talks, curated tours, the Paris Photo–Aperture PhotoBook Awardsd and an educational project.
