In collaboration with the Musée de l’Elysée, Lausanne

Every five years since 2005, the Musée de l’Elysée in Lausanne, Switzerland, has staged an exhibition to review tendencies and look at perspectives in contemporary photography. regeneration 4 accompanies the 2020 exhibition and features works by a wide range of emerging international  photographic artists. In addition, the book includes statements from participants in the earlier exhibitions, commissioned by the curators-editors, about their individual artistic evolution, in which environmentalism, social equality and inclusion, digitalization, and securing their own livelihood appear as key topics and practical challenges. The book presents these insights alongside depictions of the works by all thirty-five artists selected for reGeneration 4, brief commentary texts, and an introductory essay.

Named on the Longlist of the German Photo Book Prize 20/21.

"While the first edition in 2005 was all about discovering rising photographers, the series has since developed into a radar that scans developments in photography." Regula Fuchs, Tages-Anzeiger and Der Bund

« Le catalogue ouvre une réflexion majeure sur les perspectives présentes et futures non seulement de la photographie, mais aussi de l’institution muséale en charge de sa conservation et de sa mise en valeur. » L’Œil de la Photographie
