La ville comme lieu d’exposition de sa mémoire

Abstract

The popular movement that started on 22 February 2019 in Algiers, has become a key date of Algerian history but also for visual history. In a matter of weeks, Algiers became a place of unprecedented photographic expression which contributed to build the new visual narratives of the city. This article intends to question the expression of political claims through the use of images and to underline significant elements for the study of the photographic practice in Algeria.
