Mobile Camera Club will exhibit mobile photography in all its forms. The name of the gallery is a tribute to camera clubs and photographic societies, which were the real “test kitchens” of the early photographic years. It is also a reference to Alfred Stieglitz, a photographer and gallery-owner born 150 years ago, who was a real talent scout, a forward-thinking artist, and a staunch defender of photography as a fine art in its own right. At Mobile Camera Club, you will find art prints for sale, either mounted or framed, or not.
The gallery will also provide lectures and workshops to help you use your smartphone as an effective camera, and make the best use of photography apps. It aims to become a reference spot for mobile arts. 2 Mobile Photography The undisciplined granddaughter of traditional photography, mobile photography, made with a smartphone, celebrates the rise of a new generation of digital artists and the era of photography 3.0.

Amid the flood of amateur snapshots captured on the go and posted on social networks, there is gradually emerging a truly creative artistic movement, which is inventing a new photographic language. Its thirst for experimentation and freedom and its unorthodox ways are shaking up artistic dogmas and aesthetic boundaries. Mobile Camera Club offers a real place for expression to this silent and virtual revolution. Mobile Photo Paris Mobile Photo Paris is an event that brings together photographers, professional or amateur, whose styles and approaches are different but who share the same tool, their phone, which they find high-tech, fun, and innovative. From 21 to 25 November 2012, the first exhibition at the Bastille Design Center showcased over one hundred works produced only with smartphones.
