Maximum number of people: 23 people "Carros en lumière / Photographs 1983-2025" This exhibition is part of the program of the Rencontres de la photographie d'Arles as part of the Grand Arles Express. In 1983, the city of Carros, emblematic of the urban planning policies of the 1960s-1980s, became the site of a unique photographic investigation. Commissioned by Maisons Phénix, six photographers – Sabine Weiss, Jean Dieuzaide, Bernard Gille, Guy Le Querrec, Emil Schulthess and Jacques Windenberger – capture the social and architectural essence of this "new city". Fallen into oblivion, these images are rediscovered in 2023 after their acquisition by the Museum of Decorative Arts of Paris and their presentation in the exhibition "La maison pour tous. A social photograph of the 80s. In 2025, the CIAC of Carros extends this exploration with an exhibition combining this collection and works from creative residencies by contemporary artists Hélène Bellenger, Jürgen Nefzger and Eloïse Baille as well as photographs from its collection signed Suzanne Hetzel, establishing a dialogue between memory and creation. This initiative makes Carros a living example of the interactions between art, urban planning and collective history, while paying tribute to the vitality of its inhabitants.
