The PMU launched its call for entries for “Carte blanche PMU 2016”, open to any photographer or artist. One month remains to participate. The PMU pursues its commitment in favor of contemporary photographic creation by giving once again ‘carte blanche’ to a photographer or artist, to interpret the betting universe.
As part of the continued partnership between the PMU and the Centre Pompidou, the PMU Carte Blanche will be conceived together with the Centre Pompidou photography unit.
The winner will receive a grant of 20,000 euros for the realization of a new project. This work will be the object of an exhibition in the photography gallery of the Centre Pompidou in the fall of 2016 and will be published as part of a collection by Editions Filigranes.
