PHOTOGRAPHY COMPETITION

7L PHOTOGRAPHY GRAND JURY PRIZE

Since 2023 edition, the Photography Grand Jury Prize
becomes the 7L Photography Grand Jury Prize.

7L will support the winner of the 7L Photography Grand
Jury Prize on:

• the production of a book co-editied by the Éditions 7L,
  the Atelier EXB and the villa Noailles ;
• the creation of a book launch event with the production
  of an exhibition during Paris Photo at 7L.

The winner of the 7L Photography Grand Jury Prize will
be offered an exhibition of his work at the villa Noailles
during the following year’s Festival.

The 7L bookshop was founded in 1999 by Karl
Lagerfeld in Paris. 7L stands for 7, rue de Lille, in the 7th
arrondissement of Paris, and for Karl Lagerfeld’s favourite
number. “I love this place so much that it is part of me,”
said the great couturier, an insatiable seeker of beauty
and knowledge.

Acquired by CHANEL in 2021, 7L celebrates its
founder’s unconditional love for books and photography.
It brings together a bookshop dedicated to works in
the field of visual arts, a cultural programme named
Correspondances for the Friends of 7L, inspired by his
personal library present in his former photo studio, as well
as the Éditions 7L publishing house.
The Éditions 7L were launched in 2001 by Karl Lagerfeld,
with the idea the of a book-object standard and the will
of publishing books that are emphasizing the work of his
talented friends as Grace Coddington, Roni Horn, Fran
Lebowitz… or to re-publish some books mainly dedicated
to photography that became rare as Moï Ver Paris,
The Japanese Box…

CHANEL is a partner of the 7L Photography Grand Jury
Prize, with a prize of 20,000 euros for the winner.
