DANIEL COHN-BENDIT
Fifty years ago, Gilles Caron’s iconic image put a face on the name of a student protest leader fighting the established order. Since then, Daniel Cohn‑Bendit has embodied a certain idea of freedom. As May 68 is commemorated, we take the opportunity to question his view of history, the power of images and the connections between them.

Opening week’s unmissable festive event features a photographic walk through around 50 proposals projected in loops on four giant screens: the festival’s favorite artists and photographers, cartes blanches to institutions. This great celebration of photography combines a concert, food truck, bars and DJ sets. Free admission.

Live Magazine is a crazy idea, a unique, ephemeral show. That’s probably the secret of its success. Live Magazine restores all the power of true stories, their ability to captivate, to move and to carry the audience away by inviting 10 photographers, journalists and artists to the Théâtre Antique’s stage.
