INTERNATIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY CONTEST

"We play on earth"

Closing date: December 19, 2013

This competition organised by the Fondation Alliance Française in Paris involves the submission of photographs on the theme:“We play on the Earth”. The idea is to display games from varied social and cultural backgrounds (social games, money games, video games, games played outside, children’s games, sports competitions etc).

This photographic “report” will also provide the opportunity for the viewers to discover the evolution of practices of games worldwide.
