Centre de la photographie de Mougins

Open to all forms of photographic modernity, the Center, as a municipal institution, boosts the cultural and tourism sector of the town of Mougins, seeking to enhance the region and foster international communication. It has the mission of supporting creation and experimentations by artists, both French and foreign, emerging and established. This support takes the form of production, exhibition, publishing and an artist residency.
With 330 square meters of usable space, the building’s three-level layout encompasses reception and information areas, exhibition and meeting spaces. Other locales in the village of Mougins fill supplementary functions vital to the proper running of the Center of Photography: administration, storage, artist residency, educational workshops and documentation center.
The program choices are guided solely by the principle of connection to reality through a selection of powerful and timely subjects, with respect for gender equality and proper recognition of women photographers, constantly alert and on the lookout for non-European expression. This desire, this ambition, calls for the devoted application of measures and actions to facilitate the diffusion of contemporary art.
