The competition is open from this Tuesday, September 1 and will close on October 14, 2020.
In the photograph of Man Ray hovers some form of the strange
“In Man Ray's photography there is a certain form of the strange. The beauty of the models is inhabited by a mystery that emerges, mixed with fantasy. The staging raises questions. Often a backlight or overprint triggers a surprise. Everyone is free to establish a unique dialogue with the setting, between the inert and the flesh, the object and the human. " Can we read in a presentation of the competition by Wipplay and the Luxembourg Museum. If Man Ray, photography and the bizarre fascinate you, then this online event is an opportunity to let your inspiration speak.
Wipplay, what is it?
Wipplay is an essential platform for all photography and image lovers in general. The goal is to make art as accessible as possible and to highlight the spontaneity of this discipline. From emblematic figures of the cultural world, to amateurs without forgetting students and exhibition venues, Wipplay is a benevolent digital space that welcomes the greatest number of people.
Why this collaboration with the Musée du Luxembourg?
Wipplay and the museum wish to echo the Man Ray and Fashion Photography exhibition which will begin on September 23. This fascinating theme, set up on the occasion of this unmissable event, is an opportunity to address a wider audience. Making culture more accessible and spreading the desire to see this major exhibition to as many people as possible are the main concerns of Wipplay, the Musée du Luxembourg and the RMN. With this competition, photography is an object of interaction and exchange. If it is not to be missed under any circumstances, it is also because it will give rise to an exhibition of the winning images at the Musée du Luxembourg. In addition, the winners will also receive passes for the event "Man Ray and fashion" but also catalogs of the exhibition. Please note that a special aufeminin prize will be awarded to the author of the most beautiful image.
