About the Photo Folio Review

REGISTRATION OPENING ON MAY 17th 2017
For over 15 years, Photo Folio Review & Gallery offers portfolio assessments during opening week in the Salle des fêtes d'Arles, maison de la vie associative Arles.
The event is geared toward professional photographers, art school students using photography and amateur photographers who already have an advanced practice.

Assessment is carried out by international experts: publishers, exhibition curators, museum directors, agency heads, gallerists, collectors, critics, press art directors and others. Through individual exchange, each participant benefits from a constructive critical appreciation of their work and invaluable advice. Every year, a few of these meetings lead to exhibitions, acquisitions and publications.

In 2023, we have the pleasure of welcoming 162 international experts, with meetings organized for over 300 photographers from around thirty countries.

The 2022 Photo Folio Review winner is Olenka Carrasco with Patria will be presented as part of the festival's official program.


Registration required, online only.
