As the Cannes Film Festival approaches its 78th edition, the Queer
Palm—a prestigious award celebrating LGBTQIA+ cinema—has unveiled its
2025 poster, crafted by acclaimed French artist and photographer Marie
Rouge. Known for her evocative imagery that blends cinematic aesthetics
with emotional depth, Rouge brings a fresh yet timeless perspective to
the festival’s visual identity this year.
Marie Rouge: The Artist Behind the Vision
Marie
Rouge, who has risen to prominence through her work in fashion,
editorial photography, and visual storytelling, is no stranger to
capturing human emotion and cinematic ambiance. Her work often explores
intimacy, memory, and identity through a lens that is both contemporary
and nostalgic.
“It’s a tremendous honor to be entrusted with this year’s poster,” Rouge said in a statement.
Rouge
is the latest in a line of artists and filmmakers invited by the
festival to interpret its most emblematic symbol. Her selection reflects
Cannes' ongoing commitment to celebrating not only cinematic excellence
but also visual innovation across creative disciplines.
Celebrating 15 Years of the Queer Palm
Established
in 2010, the Queer Palm honors films that explore LGBTQIA+ themes,
feminist perspectives, or challenge gender norms within the Cannes
Official Selection and its parallel sections. As the award celebrates
its 15th anniversary in 2025, the new poster serves as a visual
testament to its enduring mission.
Marie Rouge's design not only
commemorates this milestone but also encapsulates the spirit of
inclusivity and artistic expression that the Queer Palm represents.
Looking Ahead to Cannes 2025
The
78th Cannes Film Festival is set to take place from May 13 to May 24,
2025. With the unveiling of the new Queer Palm poster, anticipation
builds for a festival that continues to champion diverse voices and
groundbreaking cinema.
