The purpose of this residency is to support young African artists and to highlight practices that explore new forms of photography. The aim is also to promote artists’ mobility to enable them to share their work and expand their artistic and professional networks.
With this program, the Collection Gervanne + Matthias Leridon and its partners commit themselves to support the laureate’s project by offering him/her a special support and a three-month residency in the heart of Paris.
