Mobile Photography / Art Exhibition – Freedom of Panorama in Paris – On Until 9th March, 2016
Freedom of panorama is an exception to copyright, first introduced into German law at the end of the XIXth century. It considers that all artworks (including buildings and sculptures) located in the public domain can be photographed or filmed without the authorization of the author.

It is within this framework that the Mobile Camera Club in Paris has decided to gather photographers from various countries whose main photographic subject…

Mobile Camera Club Presents ‘Outsiders’ – Exhibition Open To 28 March 2015

‘Tiny Collective in Paris Show’ at the Mobile Camera Club
For the first time, the international collective of photographers “Tiny Collective” will exhibit in Paris, at the Mobile Camera Club gallery.

Always on the hip, they share the…

Mobile Camera Club, Paris – Presents New Mobile Photography Exhibition
Many thanks to Lynette Jackson, who we just interviewed in our latest Day in the Life Interview series, see here, for letting us know about this new exhibition by the Mobile Camera Club in Paris opening next week. “One century after the futurist, constructivist and vortices’ movements, six photographers coming from different countries and backgrounds, equipped with their smartphones, question the reality and modernity of their urban environment. Sharing the same fascination as their predecessors for the graphic and geometric imagination that shaped our megalopolises, they use framing, perspective, photomontage or typography to show a world between visible and invisible, real and virtual. These “image builders” intend to show us…
