At Centquatre, Circulation(s) Highlights the Diverse Perspectives of Young European Photographers

Au Centquatre, Circulation(s)s met en lumière la diversité de regards des jeunes photographes européens

The 16th edition of the Circulation(s) festival has opened at Centquatre-Paris, showcasing the work of 26 emerging photographers from 15 European countries. Organized by the Fetart collective, this year’s festival features Ireland as the guest country and emphasizes the hybridization of photography with other mediums, such as embroidery, tapestry, and digital installations.

As a vital laboratory for contemporary image-making, the festival highlights how a new generation of artists is navigating global instability through themes of memory, identity, and ecology. By moving beyond traditional photographic prints to explore experimental forms, these artists transform the medium into a space for social resistance and personal storytelling, solidifying the event's reputation as a premier launchpad for young European talent.
