The theme for this Summer Photoworkshop’ 2010 was chosen as indeterminacy, being at crossroads and at the same time new opportunities – the “Ways of Photography”. The inconsistency in our logo is about the same thing – photography today is a bit stumbling, being unsteady, vitally dependant on industry and market conditions, and is in need of support from those who appreciate human and artistic position, and believe in necessity of independent expression.
At the same time photographers have gained vast opportunities for working independently – internet as a place for selfpromotion, publishing books and selfmade magazines as a means of expression, creating multimedia, and other spheres where one can immerse himself. Simultaneously documentary and art photography are changing, merging and supplementing each other, both on behalf of changes in visual language and on behalf of business. Many of these new trends and opportunities in contemporary photography are proposed for discussion at the International Summer Photoworkshop ‘2010 “Ways Of Photography”.
That is always an intence week of learning when lectures or meetings start early in the morning and are over in the everning.
This year every eager photographer can design his own particular program from a number of daily lectures, one-day masterclasses or workshops 3 to 5 days long. The cost of attending is being formed by the number of courses chosen, and the more you attend the lower is the cost!
Masterclass, workshops and lectures attendance rates are available here: ATTENDANCE FEES.
Schedule of events at Fotodepartament and all events of the International Summer Photoworkshop is available at Google Calendar.
Open screening of photo movies collection “Foto in motion.vol.3″ titled “Home” will take place during the summer workshops ‘2010 and will be issued on a CD. “Young Photography 2010 1/2” Exhibition is a part of summer workshops’ programme as well.
