Join us for the official launch of “YES TO ALL”, issue 14 of Der Greif curated by Sylvie Fleury. To celebrate the launch, Sylvie will sign copies and we drop a super limited apparel collection in relation to the issue. We are also re-launching “Surplus Management”, issue 13 of Der Greif curated by Penelope Umbrico. The issue was virtually launched in 2020, and we’re now looking forward to presenting it to the public, alongside an intervention by Penelope. Since its inception in 2008, Der Greif has been committed to researching subjects affecting the production, distribution, presentation and perception of photographic images – in print, on screens as well as in exhibitions.

EIKON

Austria

On the occasion of EIKON’s 30th anniversary the quarterly “International Magazine for Photography and Media Art” will organize a casual get-together with contributors and artists within the frame of PARIS PHOTO: Meet and greet the editors and their friends like Stéphane Couturier, Arno Gisinger and Abigail Solomon-Godeau, browse through the most recent issues and order your special anniversary subscription.

EIKON, established in 1991 and based at MuseumsQuartier Wien, views itself as a platform for Austrian and international artists from the fields of photography and media art. A major feature of the magazine is its close collaboration with the presented artists. It places special focus on the presentation and promotion of young artists as well as on the introduction of new approaches of established artists."

FRIDAY 12, 5 – 7.30 pm

NUMERO

France

International magazine of reference on contemporary art and photography, Numéro art invites photographic artists, specialists and curators who have been contributing to the magazine for four years to discuss young photographic creation and more broadly the very meaning of the term «photography» in the age of the globalized image and in a world where anyone can improvise as an image maker with their phone. Since 2017, artists Daido Moriyama, Harley Weir, Lea Colombo, Maisie Cousins (presented in the Curiosa sector at Paris Photo this year), Ari Marcopoulos, Synchrodogs..., fashion photographers Cass Bird, Tim Richardson, Miles Aldridge, Lee Wei Swee, Charlotte Krieger..., and specialists Patrick Remy, Jean-Kenta Gauthier, Mouna Mekouar, and Martha Kirszenbaum, all contributed to the magazine.

SATURDAY 13, 2 – 4.30 pm

HOTSHOE

UK

Chris Killip, one of Britain’s greatest documentary photographers, died last October at the age of 74. Throughout a career spanning more than 30 years, he made some of the most striking images of life in the British Isles as a response to the social situations resulting from deindustrialisation, and in the process created what Martin Parr referred to as “a different way of looking”.

With the help of his son Matthew Killip, and his widow Mary (nee Halpenny), we’ve put together a collection of portfolios, including previously unpublished images, alongside Killip’s own words, as well as personal accounts from photographers who were influenced by his work like Martin Parr, Gregory Halpern, Sage Sohier, and Mark Steinmetz.
