The main themes of ImageNation Paris 2025

In 2025, the exhibitions will address universal themes:

  • Memory and storytelling : how the image bears witness to time, society and intimacy.
  • Identity and the body Powerful portraits, questions about self-representation.
  • Nature and the city : duality between urbanity and wild space.
  • Visual experimentation : polaroids, superimpositions, revisited silver gelatin works.

Photographers such as Mustafa AbdulHadi, Natalia Alana, Aurélien Longo, Bas de Graaf and Maria Siorba are among the talents being honored, confirming the diversity and richness of the selection.

During Paris Photo and the Week of Photography, Galerie Joseph becomes one of the epicenters of Parisian artistic life. Its bright, modular, and elegant spaces allow the artworks to be showcased to their best advantage and offer artists unparalleled visibility.
