L’association des Gens d’Images et la photographie en France entre 1954 et 1985
Abstrak
During the “Glorious Thirty”, in order to develop reflection on the new “civilization of the image” and to promote the use of the photographic medium as a means of artistic expression, Albert Plécy, Raymond Grosset and Jacques Henri Lartigue founded on October 15, 1954 the Gens d’Images organization. Still active nowadays, this organization awards two annual prizes every year since 1955: the Niépce Prize, rewording the work of a French photographer, and the Nadar Prize, honoring a photographic book published in France during the year. This article traces Gens d’Images’s history, from its origins until 1985, in order to consider the influence of this association in French photography and thus highlighting certain hitherto unknown actors, events and networks that participate to the evolution of the status of photography in France during this period.
