Luc Delahaye is a French photographer whose work has evolved from frontline war reportage to large‐scale, formally precise explorations of contemporary society.

Edward Weston — Modernité Révélée
Maison Européenne de la Photographie (MEP)

Until 25 January 2026

This retrospective is the largest dedicated to Weston in Paris in nearly thirty years, featuring over a hundred vintage prints from the Wilson Centre for Photography collection. It traces his shift from pictorialism to a modernist photographic language defined by clarity of form, light, surface—and transforms everyday objects (shells, vegetables, bodies, stones) into motifs in a visual grammar of subtle power.More info

Isabelle Giovacchini — Plongées, Fragments, Répliques
Centre Photographique d'Île de France (CPIF), Pontault-Combault. 

Until 21 December 2025

In this solo show, Giovacchini works with found archival photographs as raw material—scanning, cropping, reframing, creating replicas and even fakes—to disrupt the official narrative of the image and highlight the materiality of photographs themselves. Her work dwells in the space of image-loss, fragment, double and spectral trace.More info

‍

François‑Xavier Gbré — Radio Ballast
Fondation Henri Cartier‑Bresson 

Until 11 January 2026

French-Ivorian photographer François-Xavier Gbré follows the north-to-south railway line of Côte d’Ivoire — built during the colonial era — as a route to capture the layered traces of human activity, architecture and history. His photographs blend colonial, post-independence and contemporary temporalities into a visual archive of landscapes and structures.More info

‍

We Others — Donna Gottschalk, Hélène Giannecchini with Carla Williams
Le BAL 

Until 16 November 2025

This exhibition brings together three photographers from different generations whose practices diverge yet converge through a shared commitment: to make visible lives that have been excluded from dominant narratives. It features the work of Donna Gottschalk documenting LGBT+ activism from late 1960s New York; Hélène Giannecchini’s archival and queer-memoir literatures; and Carla Williams’s exploration of Black women’s photographic self-representation.More info

Conversation: Intimes réalités (Photographic works by Graciela Iturbide & Claudia Andujar)
Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain 

Fri 14 Nov 2025, 17:00

The photographic works of Graciela Iturbide and Claudia Andujar go beyond mere testimony to give reality a deeper, poetic dimension. Their images emerge from a relationship of proximity and trust with their subjects, and reflect lived experience rather than observation. The event in Paris’ newest museum space is a discussion in English with French subtitles, featuring Kristen Gresh (Museum of Fine Arts, Boston) and Thyago Nogueira (Instituto Moreira Salles, Brazil).More info

How the Nazis photographed their crimes. Auschwitz 1944
Mémorial de la Shoah 

Until 16 November 2025

This photographic exhibition presents the so-called “Album of Auschwitz” created by the SS during the deportation of Hungarian Jews to Auschwitz‑Birkenau in the summer of 1944. It invites a critical reading of the images — often taken to document the extermination process — by pointing to what the perpetrators wanted to hide and what the photographs nonetheless reveal.More info‍‍

‍Araki Nobuyoshi — POLARAKI: A Thousand Polaroids
Musée National des Arts Asiatiques 

Until 12 January 2026

The works are displayed in an immersive installation of 43 columns of 9 frames each — a visual diary of eroticism, intimacy, ritual and the fleeting instant.More info
