A CURATED BOOKSHOP

Considering the photobook as a work of art in its own right, and wishing to showcase photography in all its forms, L'INAPERÇU offers a selection of exceptional, rare or out-of-print books, sometimes accompanied by exclusive artists' prints. In order to offer an eclectic, high-quality choice of books, every three months L'INAPERÇU invites a personality from the world of art or publishing (artists, publishers, critics or art historians) to present a curation: a thematic selection of photography books. These "cartes blanches" are an opportunity to discover unique photographic writings, past and present, proposed by experts in the field. INAPERÇU's guest curators include artist photographer Valérie Belin and publisher Patrick Remy. Putting sharing and encounters at the heart of its project, the bookshop regularly organizes a variety of cultural events: book launches, signings, installations... With a capacity of up to 200 people thanks to a system of removable partitions, L'INAPERÇU hosted, among others, the German photography magazine Der Greif and Éditions Louis Vuitton for an evening event.
