A six week biennial festival that will include exhibitions on contemporary Russian photography, international meeting place portfolio reviews for artists, forums, workshops, evenings with photography artists and an international print auction.
FotoFest International, founded in 1983 in Houston, Texas, is the first and longest-running international Biennial of photography and photo-related art in the U.S.
The FotoFest Biennial and art programs are known as platforms for ideas and discovery, combining museum-quality art with important social and aesthetic issues. The Biennial exhibitions curated by FotoFest give priority to the works of important but little-known photographic artists from the U.S. and around the world.
In addition to exhibitions, the FotoFest Biennial features a large portfolio review program for photographic artists, a film and video series, conferences, multi-media installations, a Fine Print Auction, and four-color exhibition catalogue.
This six week biennial festival event begins on March 16, 2012 and will include exhibitions on Contemporary Russian Photography, International Meeting Place Portfolio Reviews for Artists, Forums, Workshops, Evenings with Photography Artists and an International Print Auction.
