Over the course of twenty years of continuous photographic presence in Montpellier and across Europe, the Boutographies have become THE photographic highlight in the city.
The event is also a time for initiatives, meetings and partnerships for all photographers with projects, with special emphasis on those who have already been selected for the Boutographies.
