Paris Photo is an annual international art fair dedicated to photography. It was founded in 1997, and is held in November at the Grand Palais exhibition hall and museum complex, located at the Champs-Élysées in the 8th arrondissement in Paris.
The fair consists of photo-based artwork alongside a public programme of exhibitions, prizes, art signings and talks. The website states that it includes 6 sectors, including a 'digital' sector and a 'book' sector.
The 2024 edition takes place 7 to 10 November 2024.




History


Founded in 1997, Paris Photo presented 53 galleries for its first edition at the Carrousel du Louvre. The Fair was acquired by Reed expositions France in 2001 and relocated to the Grand Palais in 2011.
In 2006, public attendance was 40,000. In 2017, over 64,500 visitors attended over the course of the 5-day fair.
Florence Bourgeois is its current director alongside Christopher Wiesner, the Artistic Director. She was preceded by Julien Frydman (2011–2015), Guillaume Piens (2008–2010), Valerie Foujerole (2005–2007), and Rik Gadella (1997–2004).
In the past, there have been two sister editions of Paris Photo: Paris Photo Los Angeles from 2013 through 2015 at the Paramount Pictures Studios in Hollywood and Photo London at Old Billings Gate in 2007. The inaugural edition in New York City was postponed in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The artwork was displayed online instead.




The Paris Photo–Aperture Foundation PhotoBook Awards



First taking place in November 2012, The PhotoBook Awards have three major categories. This includes: First PhotoBook, PhotoBook of the Year, and Photography Catalogue of the Year.
After a call for submissions, a shortlist is selected by a preliminary jury. The shortlisted books are exhibited at Paris Photo and profiled in The PhotoBook Review, Aperture's biannual publication dedicated to the photo book, which is released at Paris Photo and distributed through Aperture magazine, and online. A final jury announces the three category winners at the Fair. The winner of the First PhotoBook category receives a $10,000 prize. The winners of the other two categories each receive a commemorative award.
