Arles 2023: a state of consciousness
From its inception in 1970 by the Arlesian photographer Lucien Clergue, the writer Michel Tournier and the historian Jean‑Maurice Rouquette, the Rencontres d'Arles quickly became a mainstay in the world of photography. Year after year, photography which was previously regarded as a "minor" art, would gain significant critical acclaim through the festival.
For over half a century, its global-reaching line-up embraces artistic engagement and eclecticism to reflect the state of the world. The 54th edition centers on the idea of "a state of consciousness" as a nod to the transformations we are experiencing. Like a seismograph of our times, the event brings together photographers, artists and curators to capture these profound changes.
Discover the festival from July 3 to September 24!
Women In Motion and the Rencontres d’Arles: celebrating women photographers
Women In Motion and the Rencontres d'Arles announced their partnership in 2016. To mark the occasion, for the first time, the program supported the Prix de la Photo Madame Figaro. In 2019, Kering strengthened its partnership with the Rencontres d'Arles, extending the Women In Motion program to the festival’s calendar. Together, they created the Women In Motion Award for photography, which aims to shine a light on women photographers. 2019 also saw the creation of Women In Motion Lab , an initiative providing tangible support for any project showcasing women in photography.
The Women In Motion Award for photography was previously awarded to Susan Meiselas in 2019, Sabine Weiss in 2020, Liz Johnson Artur in 2021 and Babette Mangolte in 2022.
As the program celebrates five years of collaborating with the Rencontres d'Arles, Kering is pleased to renew its commitment to the festival for another five years as one of the Main Partners.
