This Fall, Paris falls for photography… and your Hotel Louvre Marsollier falls along! Let us take you to the Petit Palais (Paris Museum of Fine Arts), for an inspiring journey alongside the women of India.
In an attempt to make Western stereotypes about Indian women a thing of the past, six photographers roamed the country in search of its true feminine spirit. Olivia Arthur, Martine Franck, Alex Webb, Patrick Zachmann, Alessandra Sanguinetti and Raghu Rai set the lights on the modern Indian woman, a pillar of her community, unafraid to challenge male supremacy in politics, economic development, education, business, and even fine cuisine!
The exhibition has been presented with great success in major Indian cities, and 100 photographs were chosen for the latest Reporters Without Borders album, which can be purchased in support for the NGO’s work.
