Perhaps you saw the engrossing film ‘Finding Vivian Maier’ in Aix back in 2014?
It was the story of the young man who bought some boxes of prints and negatives in a Chicago market and set out to find the photographer. This turned out to be an enigmatic lady who had worked as a nanny in the city for 40 years and spent her free time, Rolleiflex in hand, taking extraordinary photos of people and the street-life around her. A bequest also financed a solitary round-world trip in 1960. She was to take 100,000 pictures in all.
Now some of them will be on show in Marseille, from 22nd June-8 July.
The organisers, Phocal, will also be showing the film and holding a weekend photography stage.
At Les Docks Village, space 200.
Daily 10-19hrs.
