A htel photo, an artists view 2011
Since 2005, the "Htels Paris Rive Gauche" group has organised a
photo project "A
Hotel Photo, An Artists View" aiming to support artistic
creation and contemporary
photography. The concept of the project is simple: each month we
let a young
photographer spend one night in one of the hotels belonging to
the Htels Paris Rive
Gauche group and allow him/her to submit one photo, and one
piece of text inspired
by his/her stay. The selected photograph, text and a
presentation of the artists are
given their own online gallery on our site.
The prize
Since 2007, the artists are also exposed in a prestigious venue
in Paris (the Thtre de
lOdon for the 2008 and 2009 editions) and are in the running for
a 3000 euros prize,
as well as another popular prize (the Virginie Clment
prize).
The selected artists will start taking their photos in december
2011 and will be
published on www.hprg.eu on 2012 and exposed in 2013.
