Global photography to shine at Xiamen festival
This year, the Jimei × Arles International Photo Festival will focus more deeply on integrating with local culture, exploring the connections between photography and the cultural heritage of Xiamen and its surrounding areas. As an international platform for photographic arts, the festival's 10th edition will also connect with local art and culture through parallel exhibitions and the "Isles Project".
Leading up to the festival's opening and throughout its duration, experts, scholars, artists and curators from around the world will engage audiences with a diverse array of events, including university lecture tours, curatorial seminars, artist talks, workshops, guided tours and performances.
The Jimei × Arles International Photo Festival is a cultural and artistic exchange project between Xiamen's Jimei district and France's Rencontres d'Arles. Since its establishment in 2015, the festival has showcased outstanding photography from around the globe, embodying a spirit of openness and diversity.
