Planches Contact Festival unveils first artists in creative residency

Selected by various juries, the festival today announces the names of the four winners of the Prix de la Jeune Création Photographique: Émeline Sauser, Mathias Benguigui, Juliette Pavy and Flore Prébay, and the four winners of the photo4food grant: Claire Adelfang, Sylvie Bonnot, Cécile Genest and Tina Merandon.

These eight photographers will be the first to set their sights on Deauville, developing original works that resonate with the town and its landscapes.

Their work will be presented at the Planches Contact Festival, to be held from October 17, 2026 to January 3, 2027.
