Description

The City of Levallois organizes every year the Prix Levallois to support young international photography, an opportunity to encourage and promote new talents. Created in 2008, the Prix Levallois is a springboard for young international photographic creation.  For ten years, it has been rewarding photographers under 35. A freedom of tone and expression that seduces young photographers whose approaches are free from any artistic division. The Prize doesn’t require a theme nor a format, only the quality of the work counts in the process of selecting artists.

Each year there are fifteen nominees. Their projects are presented with impartiality and good will in front of a jury in order to reward a Laureate and a Special Mention. The jury is composed of five members : four people from the world of photography and a member of the City of Levallois’ town hall.
