The exhibition officially opens tomorrow, April 26th, (which also marks the 10th anniversary of the release of the first volume of De Paris Yearbook), and will be open for a few months. If you happen to be around, look for it at 39 rue de Rivoli, on the fences of the Tour Saint Jacques.

The man behind the exhibition, Thomas Busuttil, tells us:

"Introspection Narrative raises the question of what we want to convey through the images we publish. Whether as a media outlet or as individuals, everyone shapes the image of their culture based on what they show to others."

With a variety of incredible photos published between 2013 and 2022, each which has really helped shape the life and evolution of Parisian skateboarding in one way or another, the exhibit offers a unique perspective of their local scene through the lenses of some really creative photographers. Get there!
