Returning to Paris for its 25th year, Paris Photo is a dazzling celebration of contemporary photography. This year’s anniversary edition brings together 183 exhibitors from 31 countries, including 18 that are new to the fair.

In addition to the main section, featuring leading galleries including Eric Dupon, Huxley Parlour and Gagosian Paris, is the Curiosa section, which spotlights image-based art practices as well as photographic explorations beyond traditional genres of the medium. Curated by UCCA curator Holly Roussell, it brings together 16 galleries showing emerging artists from around the world. Don’t miss the solo shows by Elliot & Erick Jiménez and Pao Houa Her, both of whom are exhibiting in France for the first time. Another highlight is the book section which gathers 34 publishers offering unique editions and new book releases.

While you’re there, be sure to scope out the Elles x Paris Photo fair path, which highlights a selection of women artists exhibited at the fair as well as historic figures who have significantly contributed to the medium. Names for your radar include the early 20th-century Italian American activist Tina Modotti and South African photographer Zanele Muholi. Taking place alongside the fair is a curated programme of events, talks and prizes.
