The Foto8 Award & Summer Show 2008
23 July - 31 August
Foto8, in association with HOST gallery,
presents the first annual Foto8 Awards & Summer Show – a
celebration of the best in reportage, portraiture and landscape
photography, where emerging and established photographers come together
to exhibit their work and sell prints
Foto8 is
committed to engaging audiences. In 2008, this commitment will be
culminated into the first annual Summer Show where audiences will
experience Foto8 quality photography while also being able to purchase
affordably-priced prints. Rarely has this type of event been accessible
in London, as Foto8 hopes to pave the way for beautiful, inspirational
and affordable photography.
Photographers have been encouraged to submit entries of their work, as
single images or as a short series, to be considered for inclusion in
the Summer Show. Images will be chosen according to aesthetics and
substance, yet all works, regardless of photographic genre, will be
considered to allow for a wide-range of styles to be exhibited.
Audiences can expect to see the work of emerging and established
photographers on display in the one space for this seven-week long
event.
Our expert judging panel, comprising of Chris Boot, Zelda Cheatle, Ken
Grant, Jon Levy, Steve MacLeod and Di Poole, will ultimately choose the
Best in Show, presenting one person with £1,000 for their winning entry.
