Alta Vista Arts is pleased to announce the exhibition SHE PERSISTS opening Saturday, November 8th at 8 Rue Chapon, 75003, Paris.
SHE PERSISTS highlights twelve female photographers whose work explores culture, history, and the lived experience. The show will be on view from November 8–15, 2025, in the heart of Paris’s Marais district during Paris Photo Week.
Through photography, self-portraiture, alt-processes, and mixed media, these artists examine how women see and represent themselves – as subjects, storytellers, and makers of meaning. Whether intimate or bold, quiet or confrontational, their works reveal an ongoing dialogue between visibility, identity, and power.
