Arles 2015 : 5 nominators for Discovery Award

Preview

The five nominators of the 2015 Discovery Award are photography experts dealing with emerging practices and working as festival directors, heads of institutions and independent curators. This years, nominators are : Krzysztof Candrowicz, director of the Fotofestiwal in Lodz, Poland and artistic director of the Triennial of Photography, Hamburg ; Louise Clements, co-founder of the FORMAT International Photography Festival in Derby, United Kingdom ; Fannie Escoulen, independent exhibition curator; Claire Jacquet, director of the FRAC Aquitaine and Francesco Zanot, curator of Camera, Turin.

The Discovery Award is given to a photographer or an artist using photography whose work has recently been discovered or deserves to be. Every year since 2002, each of the five nominators invited by the Rencontres d’Arles has nominated two photographers, who exhibit their work in a solo show at the Parc des Ateliers. During opening week, professionals choose the winner, who receives the €25,000 award during a ceremony in the antique theatre.
