While engaging with the history of photography and the diversity of its uses, Ciel variable pays particular attention to practices situated within the field of contemporary art. The magazine explores the many ways in which images question their own means, impact, and place within today’s culture.

For nearly four decades, Ciel variable has documented contemporary photographic practices, supported artists, fostered critical reflection, and contributed to the recognition and appreciation of photography in Québec, across Canada, and internationally.

As a non-profit organization working in the cultural sector and recognized as a charitable organization, Ciel variable contributes to the dissemination, critical reflection, and promotion of current photographic practices.
Supported by its partners, subscribers, and members, the magazine creates a space for exchange between artists, authors, researchers, and the public, fostering dialogue around the many forms of contemporary image-making.

Your support directly contributes to the production of the magazine, fair compensation for artists and authors, and the preservation of our archives.
