Guest Room aims to spark collaboration. Christoph Wiesner, head of the Rencontres d'Arles, has decided to collaborate with philosophy and photography graduate Aurélien Valette.

Together, they have developed the following framework for your submissions: “Close Encounters of the Third Kind”.

Christoph Wiesner is head of the Rencontres d’Arles since 2020, the first international photography festival, and was artistic director of Paris Photo from 2015 to 2020. After spending 15 years at Berlin’s Esther Schipper gallery, he became senior director of the Yvon Lambert gallery in Paris in 2012. Christoph Wiesner was born in 1965. He lives and works in Paris and Arles.

In the VIII EDITION of BETA PUBLICA and with more enthusiasm than ever given the situation in which we live, we continue to seek that the public, choreographers, dancers, cultural programmers, media, producers and other participants are - physically and virtually - present in the creative processes of the selected pieces giving rise to new reflections and bringing together points of view that contribute to enriching the creative process.

This VIII EDITION we continue to develop new features introduced in the last Edition:

* The Registration Process that we carry out from our own website and using our Instagram profile to facilitate the voting of the creative proposals preferred by our followers. The Registration Process is already open.
