Created in 2018 by Christian Dior Parfums, in partnership with LUMA Arles and the Ecole nationale supérieure de la photographie (ENSP), the Dior Photography and Visual Arts Award for Young Talents is an international competition for students and recent graduates of leading art and photography schools.

The works of ten emerging artists are on view at La Lampisterie, from July 4 to October 4.

Candidates were invited to answer to the theme of "Face-to-Face", and the exhibition presents the works of ten artists selected by the jury, chaired by the British photographer David Sims and composed of Vasantha Yogananthan (French Photographer) Maja Hoffmann (Founder and Executive President LUMA Foundation and LUMA Arles), Julie Jones (Director of la Maison Européenne de la Photographie) and Peter Philips (Creative and Image Director of Dior Makeup).

The winner of this edition will be announced on July 9.
