À propos de cet événement

A Masterclass by Steve McCurry, in the presence of Biba Giacchetti.
On December 9, the Museum Maillol will launch the largest and most complete retrospective dedicated to the photographer Steve McCurry: “The World of Steve McCurry”. This is a great opportunity to invite the artist to come to Sciences Po to present his work and to talk with our students.
What is the world of Steve McCurry? How does he define photography and the work of a photographer nowadays? What makes photographs such a powerful and vital medium? Is photography a political art? How is such a major exhibition created and set up?
This Masterclass will give Steve McCurry the opportunity to return to his life’s work, from Afghanistan to Southeast Asia and from Africa to Latin America. After presenting a slideshow of his work, he will answer questions prepared by students from the Culture/Cultural Policy & Management’s stream of the Sciences Po School of Public Affairs.
He will be accompanied by Biba Giacchetti, Curator of the exhibition.
A discussion moderated by Florence Botello, Academic Advisor for the Culture / Cultural Policy & Management, Sciences Po School of Public Affairs.
This Masterclass will be in English. It is organized as part of the “Masterclasses Culture” of the School of Public Affairs. Please note that sanitary passes will be checked at the entrance and that wearing a mask for the whole duration of the conference will be mandatory.
