Outside Arles

International Photography Symposium NIDA.
Meeting Photography
September 3 — 19, 2021
Vilnius, Lituania

Thursday, September 16, 8:30 pm
Screenings at Lithuania’s NIDA 2021 festival will feature artists participating in the Rencontres d’Arles 2021 Louis Roederer Discovery Award.


The Louis Roederer Discovery Award selection process is open to all exhibition venues and galleries. This year, the 11 shortlisted projects have been considered a single exhibition, designed by curator Sonia Voss from selection to hanging. She and scenographer Amanda Antunes have innovatively and eco-responsibly showcased the emerging scene at a signature festival venue, the Frères-Prêcheurs church.

During the Rencontres d'Arles 2021 opening week, a jury gave the Louis Roederer Discovery Award to Tarrah Krajnak, proposed by AS-IS.LA Gallery. The prize comes with a €15,000 acquisition of works. Ilanit Illouz, proposed by MABA | Fondation des artistes, received the Public Award, which entails a €5,000 acquisition of works.

With support from the Louis Roederer Fondation and Polka
