Paris Photo Los Angeles would like to recognize its corporate partners:
Official partner
Giorgio Armani, Paris Photo’s Official Partner since 2011, will take part in the fair’s first edition in Los Angeles. Within a dedicated space at the center of the fair, Giorgio Armani will present “ACQUA #3,” a new body of work by photographer Jim Goldberg. Taken in Haiti, these images reflect the continued challenge of access to clean drinking water as the country struggles to rebuild in the aftermath of the devastating earthquake of 2010. Water supply has been a social cause supported by Mr. Armani through the “Acqua for Life” project, which he established in 2011, and has helped to collect more than 95 million litres of drinkable water for Green Cross International and its programs in Ghana and Bolivia. ”Acqua for Life” is now joining forces with J/P Haitian Relief Organization (J/P HRO), Sean Penn’s NGO dedicated to saving lives and bringing sustainable programs to Haiti.
Associate partner
At the inaugural fair in Los Angeles, BMW and Paris Photo celebrate the tenth anniversary of their partnership. The company has been involved in the arts for over four decades with hundreds of initiatives worldwide. In 2005, at the opening of Zaha Hadid’s BMW Leipzig plant, BMW donated its unique collection of commissioned photographs by Thomas Demand, Wolfgang Tillmans, Rineke Dijkstra, Candida Höfer and Thomas Struth, among others, to the Leipzig Museum of Fine Arts. At Paris Photo Los Angeles, besides providing the VIP shuttle service, the company will present the M1 BMW Art Car by Andy Warhol, created by the pop artist in 1979. Originally raced in Le Mans, Warhol, in his own words, meant to “give a vivid depiction of speed. If a car is really fast, all contours and colors will become blurred.”
