I finally got around to creating gallery of images from Arles. So many points of inspiration, particularly for installations. I noted a couple that really stood out, here.
Here is a link to the gallery. I will add a few more notes to this post over the coming days.

And a few screen shots of the installations, with the odd note.
Susan Meiselas
Loved the use of Susan’s detailed notes and research.
Mood light, spotlights.
Walls of Influence
Multi-media … maps, videos, stories.
Fifty Years of Rencontres D’Arles
Innovative hangings. Bulldog clips on strings.
Mixing image sizes, text. Lots of ‘flat’ photographs affixed directly to the walls.
My Body Is A Weapon
Libuše Jarcovjáková’s use of large scale wall mounting, with smaller photos on it. And handwritten notes on the wall.
La Movida
Transparencies, contact sheets, negatives everywhere. Use a loupe.
Datazone / Rhone
Our favourite shows – amazing scale and use of space. And Rhone used lovely metallic prints.
Guillaume Simoneau – Murder
Printing on silk, against the light.
Home Sweet Home
Bold wall colours, dramatic spotlighting.
Books
Lots of plain covered, embossed, stylish books.
