In Conversation With The Land

How we think about and engage with the land has been an ever-evolving relationship. As we come to terms with the climate crisis and how human intervention in the land has irrevocably changed our planet, photographers' and artists' images help us understand these essential conversations. The Centre of Fine Art Photography in Boston gives an opportunity to explore loss, longing, mystery, and hope.

Submission deadline: July 18th, 2021
Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
Exhibition Dates: September 3 December 31st, 2021

Elles font la Photographie

The Diversity-Equality team of the French Ministry of Culture is currently working on the launch of a platform providing useful practical resources for women photographers and members of gender minorities and putting these professionals in touch with each other: "Elles font la photographie" is the first part of the more global project "Elles font la culture" which will then be declined with other disciplines. A questionnaire gives the possibility to give feedback and enhance the project services.

La mission Diversité-Egalité du ministère de la Culture, accompagné par l’Atelier numérique, l’incubateur de services numériques du Ministère, travaille actuellement au lancement  d’une plateforme de mise à disposition de ressources pratiques utiles pour les femmes photographes (et appartenant aux minorités de genre) et de mise en relation de ces professionnelles entre elles : Elles font la photographie, lequel est le premier volet du projet plus global Elles font la culture qui sera décliné ensuite dans les autres disciplines. L’équipe du projet a besoin de retours de femmes photographes pour affiner au mieux les services de la plateforme.
