Photo exhibition - Michel Joly : En première ligne

From 13 March to 28 September 2025, Michel Joly, an author and photographer based in Burgundy, will be exhibiting a series of photographs at the Cité du Vin as part of the Month of Photography in Bordeaux, in which he pays keen attention to his environment. Free access in the Hall Garonne, on the ground floor of the Cité du Vin.

Observing changes to the landscape due to the effects of climate change, over the course of a year he set out to meet wine-growers who are facing these new challenges on a daily basis.

Alongside these experts, he captures the thoughts and the efforts that drive them to maintain a sustainable viticulture. He puts himself in their shoes and takes pictures from a human perspective, capturing the fleeting moments, techniques, and labour which reflect the energy within a world of viticulture faced with climate change. This series of photographs is the result of work carried out as part of the "Bal des Rejetons" collective.

This exhibition resonates perfectly with the commitment which the Foundation for wine culture and civilisations : upholds on a daily basis to raise awareness of the challenges of preserving and protecting the environment.

The texts presented in the exhibition will be available in French, English and Spanish.
