Paris Photo
Posted by Hans Ericsson | Under Festivals and Events of Note Monday Oct 12, 2009
Paris is a world class city when it comes to many things, but what it may be known best for is it’s love of art. In 1997, a Dutch publisher named Rik Gadella created Paris Photo, the world’s first photography fair. Since then, it has grown and turned into one of the largest most prestigious photo events in the world. From November 19th through the 22nd, visitors can head over to the Carousel du Louvre and check out some of the world’s best photos. 87 galleries from 12 different countries will be on display, which should keep you entertained. This year, the spotlight turns to Arab and Iranian photography, which should be impressive. Admission to the event is 15 € for adults, 7.50 € for students and free for children under 10. Don’t miss out on this fantastic photography extravaganza! Of course if you’re looking to see more of the country, a rental car in France is always a great way to get around!
