FUTURES is a photography platform dedicated to the so-called ‘emerging’ European photography scene. It pools the resources and programmes dedicated to emerging photography from cultural institutions across Europe in order to support new talent. The Centre Photographique Rouen Normandie is the French representative within the platform. Established in 2017, the network now comprises almost eight hundred photographers. Each year, FUTURES members each nominate a group of artists to join the platform. For this first edition of the Frutescens programme, the following have been selected: Anaïs Boileau, Coline Jourdan, Nolwenn Brod and Pauline Hisbacq.
As part of this partnership, the Centre Photographique Rouen Normandie is launching FRUTESCENS, a programme dedicated to emerging French photography. Four artists (who have entered the field of photography within the last ten years) are selected and brought together for a week of workshops and meetings in Normandy. These artists join the FUTURES platform and, as such, benefit from the European network provided by the platform and its members.
