Founded in 2006 by Nathalie Locatelli on the 2nd floor of a 1930s building on Avenue Mohammed V, Galerie 127 was the very first gallery in North Africa exclusively dedicated to contemporary photography. It showcases fine art photography by Moroccan and international artists focusing on Morocco and the Arab world, ranging from poetic documentary to vintage and experimental prints.
