Every year, by mid September, the city of Nantes celebrates photography. For the 15th year on a row, the Quinzaine Photographique Nantaise will be deployed all around the city from September 16th through October16th, offering visitors free access to over twenty exhibitions. As many events of this kind, the festival will evolve around the theme “À la vie, à la mort” (To life, to death), the title for the 2011 edition.
The QPN features around twenty exhibitions by international photographers in seven venues around the city. Many other events are organized alongside with the exhibitions: meetings, book signings, projections…
