After two successful years, cutlog isn’t only about to hold its third edition – it is also getting ready to launch its first international fair dedicated to photography. From November 10 to 12, 2011, cutlog Photo will take place under the dome of the Paris Bourse de Commerce, France’s historical equivalent of Wall Street, and will present a selection of international galleries and artists specialized in photography. cutlog Photo will be held in parallel to Paris’ other established photography fair, which brings the world’s leading professionals and specialists to Paris for the middle week in November. cutlog Photo is an independent, trend-setting alternative and acts as a continuation of cutlog’s Contemporary Art fair.  Both events offer a fresh vision in their field of creation thanks to the selection of cutting-edge galleries and cutlog’s committee of professionals that hand picks them.

In an effort to offer a fresh and innovative vision of photography, cutlog Photo creates the « Publisher square » and will present a selection of publishing houses.

PRIZE:
Higgins / cutlog Prize: the Publisher Higgins and the Auer Foundation will select 5 participating photographers from the fair.

cutlog, a Parisian, cutting-edge contemporary art fair dedicated to promoting international galleries which are supporting emerging artists, will hold its third edition from the 20th to the 23rd of October 2011. The galleries of cutlog 2011 will present artworks from their emerging artists, as well as the latest works from their established positions. cutlog is both an alternative and a complement to the other art fairs, focused on presenting under-the-radar galleries, it offers a platform to up and coming artists, as well a bridge between galleries and established collectors. Held under the dome of the Bourse de Commerce, France’s historical equivalent of Wall Street. It is a skip and a jump away from the Grand Palais, the Louvre and the Centre Pompidou. There, in the circular, 1000 meter square room, it disrupts th e typical, stern patterns of fairs and encourages a dialogue from galleries to visitors.

A selection of 35 international and French galleries, will offer a new visibility and a move away from Parisian art fairs. Since its kick-off three years ago, Cutlog has steadily gathered the upper crust of worldwide press, collectors, museum directors, curators and art lovers. The fair opens to the Guest of Honour and for the press on Wednesday 19th, followed by 4 days of open views alongside thematic conferences and artists films.
