October 2008 Brighton will be the host of the third edition of the Brighton Photo Biennial, the leading photography festival in the UK, showing new and commissioned bodies of work by internationally recognised photographic artists.
Brighton Photo Fringe will once again run in parallel with the BPB, using the increased awareness of photography in the media and public, and the audience of international arts professionals attending the BPB, to raise the profile of and create opportunities for photographers and lens based artists.
Brighton Photo Fringe supports photographers and lens-based artists by organising and marketing a fringe festival, in collaboration with Brighton Photo Biennial, which raises the profile of the visual arts in Brighton & Hove and reaches a broad and new audience. Through this it aims to embed photography into the cultural fabric of Brighton & Hove and to provide a unique insight for the public into the range of current UK photographic practice.
A series of professional development workshops and networking events will be organized in the lead up to October 2008. These are designed to support artists wishing to take part in the event. Please visit the workshops and events section of the website for more details. If you would like to join our e-mailing list to find out up to date news about workshops and events please visit our contacts page.
Brighton Photo Fringe is an open and inclusive event aimed at representing the broad nature of photography. During the Brighton Photo Fringe 2008 a brochure publicising all exhibitions and events will be produced and for a fee anyone exhibiting or staging an event as part of the Photo Fringe can be included in this.
