Paris Vu Par Ses Photographs

Doisneau鈥檚 iconic black-and-white image of young lovers portrays a certain happiness that comes from living in a city whose beauty seems timeless. However, the face of聽Paris聽is constantly changing; districts have been destroyed, small businesses have disappeared and traditions have been lost. Since the end of the 19th聽century, photographers have captured such transformations leaving us traces of a聽Paris聽lost in history. Whether known or anonymous, photographers around the world聽provide their visions of the city, idealizing the quotidian or emphasizing more somber perspectives. Reporters have photographed historic events 鈥 such as the occupation, the liberation and May 1968 鈥 as well as their impact on聽Parisian life, 颅showcasing conflicts that threw French society into turmoil.

The objective of the Paris Vu Par Ses Photographes course is to use the camera lens to decipher the city鈥檚 history. Each photographer has a unique vision, whether idealist, surrealist, humanistic or聽provocative. What will be yours? In creating your portfolio, you will tell your own story of聽the French capital. Whatever inspires you 鈥 be it secret places, a chance encounter or even graffiti on walls 鈥 it鈥檚 your turn to discover Paris and share your聽version of the city.
