Transphotographiques is a photography festival based in Lille, France.[1][2][3] It was created in 2001 by Olivier Spillebout, and organized since 2003 by the House of Photography (Maison de la photographie).[4]
Activities
editEvery year, or biannually, Transphotographiques runs exhibitions, workshops, conferences, and educational programs in the Lille area. For each festival, the work of a special guest (invité d'honneur) – or marraine (godmother)[5][6] or parrain (godfather)[7] – "defines that year's theme".[8] It is chaired by Bertrand de Talhouët, managed by Olivier Spillebout and organized in partnership with the magazine Photo, and runs from mid May to mid June.

Notes
edit- ^ There seems not to have been an explicit title for the festival. "Les liens et les réseaux tissés au fil des éditions, nous ont amenés naturellement à présenter en 2009, une thématique tournée vers l’Europe et ses frontières: regards croisés de photographes russes, polonais, tchèques, roumains, hongrois, français... qui confrontent leurs visions de la frontière tant territoriale que sociétale et culturelle." "Communiqué de presse", "Dossier de presse" for the 2009 festival (PDF, 3.2 MB). Emphasis added.
