Overview
On display at the IMA library, a precious testimony to Palestinian daily life, its faces, its places, and its memory, through a photo reportage created twenty-five years ago and never before shown to the public.
Exhibition organised as part of the 2026 European Heritage Days and in honour of the new name of the IMA library, renamed Bibliothèque Leïla Shahid, after the great voice of Palestine in France and Europe who passed away last February.
In 2001, Joss Dray was commissioned by the IMA to produce a photographic reportage in Palestine. Through her photographs, she documents the daily lives of Palestinians, whether they live in the Palestinian territories, in refugee camps, or within the diaspora.
Her work notably covers the camps of Jabalia, Shati, Kalandia, Dheisheh, Jenin, as well as several camps in Lebanon. Joss Dray, a French photographer, began documenting the daily life and forms of resistance of the Palestinian people in 1987.
Her work has been the subject of numerous exhibitions and publications, including Revenir à Jénine. Une histoire vivante du camp de réfugiés (1989-2018), published in 2020 with a preface by Leïla Shahid.
