Kofi Annan to announce the Prix Pictet 2009 Winner
On 22 October at the Passage de Retz gallery in Paris Kofi Annan, Honorary President of the Prix Pictet, will announce the winner of this year’s award. Planning for the exhibition of work by the Prix Pictet Shortlist 2009 is complete and it is clear that that the Jury face a considerable challenge when they sit down to consider this group of images that range from the painterly to the documentary and all points in between – often within a single submission. The power of the shortlisted images was summed up by Stephen Barber when he introduced them at the Rencontres d’Arles. “We are all of us, all too familiar with the great issues of sustainability – climate change, environmental degradation, deforestation – yet how many of us have experienced personally the devastating consequences de... - Exposition

Kofi Annan, Président honoraire du Prix Pictet, annoncera le lauréat de l'édition 2009 le jeudi 22 Octobre au Passage de Retz. L'exposition des photographes nominés pour le Prix Pictet 2009 est prête et il apparaît clairement que les jurés ont relevé un défi de taille lorsqu'ils ont dû sélectionner ces images allant du pictural ou documentaire, souvent au sein d'un même dossier. La force des images choisies est bien résumée par Stephen Barber lorsqu'il les présenta en juillet dernier aux Rencontres d’Arles. “Nous sommes tous familiers des graves problèmes liés au développement durable - le changement climatique, la dégradation de l'environnement, la déforestation - mais malgr...
