PHOTO 2020 International Festival of Photography Calls for Submissions

May 04, 2019

What power does photography have in revealing social and political truths in the digital age? How are new methods of making, sharing and viewing photography changing our understanding of reality? How can photographic images reshape perception and alter preconceived beliefs? What roles do fiction, deceit and manipulation play in photographic discourse?

Berlin Art Link Open Call for PHOTO 2020

PHOTO 2020, the International Festival of Photography, invites artists and photographers to submit proposals for the festival’s outdoor program. Thematically, the festival explores photography’s role in today’s era of social media, fake news, artificial intelligence and augmented reality. Australian and international artists and photographers are eligible to apply in response to the theme interrogating the complexities of truth in the post-internet age.
