Institut pour la photographie

Started by the Region Hauts-de-France in collaboration with Les Rencontres d’Arles, the Institut pour la photographie is a new resource centre, for dissemination, dialogue and experimentation in order to develop the photographic culture within the general public and to support research and creation. Its programme is based on synergy between five main lines: exhibitions, conservation of photographers’ archives, education, edition, and a grant programme for new projects. Situated at the crossroads of Europe, this new structure forms part of an inclusive approach stemming from initiatives and local expertise with an international ambition.
