To accompany the exhibition Michel Butor, portrait ultrasensible, Université Paris Cité and PhotoSaintGermain are publishing a book dedicated to one of the most important authors of the Nouveau Roman literary movement. This edition will be available at the Musée d’Histoire de la Médecine and in bookstores.

In 2026, photography will celebrate its 200th anniversary. To mark the occasion, the Ministry of Culture, in France, is launching a major event to honour historical and contemporary photography, national and regional public collections, and photographic publishing, from September 1, 2026, to September 30, 2027, in metropolitan France, the overseas territories, and in more than forty countries around the world.

As part of the Bicentennial of Photography, the Réseau LUX and its members are pleased to invite you to the opening of their 200LUX EXPO exhibition on Saturday, September 19, starting at 3:00 p.m. at the Maison des Arts in Créteil.

200LUX EXPO:
PhotoSaintGermain presents the work of Tshepiso Mazibuko and Sibusiso Bheka looking back on thirty years of democracy in South Africa. These two photographers belong to the so-called “born free” generation—a term referring to the Black generation born after the first non-racial democratic elections in 1994, who never lived under apartheid. They symbolize the promise of a free and more egalitarian South Africa, a promise they challenge through their photographic practice.
Exhibition supported by RUBIS MECENAT
