13.01.2022 LIVE FROM FED SQUARE

13.01.2022 There have been hundreds of people who have worked extremely hard over the past few years in some extraordinarily difficult circumstances to prepare for PHOTO 2021. Even though we have faced a 5-day lockdown right before our launch we are most certainly not going to let this get in the way of honouring their hard work by delivering a truly spectacular world class event. The ramifications of the lockdown have meant that some exhibitions may open slightly later than planned du...e to restrictions over the past 5-days with installing artworksin most cases this will only be a a matter of days. The PHOTO 2021 team have worked collaboratively with our artists, Exhibition and Program Partners to collate all program changes into one Channel article which will assist you in planning your visit to PHOTO 2021 over the next 18 days. We hope that you will be able to joins us at our inaugural festival and will continue to support our artists, partners, venues, stakeholders and audiencesthat have been through so much over this past yearby attending as many events and exhibitions as you can. https://photo.org.au/channel/photo-2021-program-update

09.01.2022 Excited to announce New York-based photographer David Rothenberg is the winner of the inaugural PHOTO 2021 x Perimeter International Photobook Prize with his book Roosevelt Station which will be published by Perimeter Books and launched at PHOTO 2021. Drawing on a series of photographs made between 2019 and 2020 in the Jackson HeightsRoosevelt Avenue/74th Street train station in Queens, New York, Roosevelt Station proves at once mundane and almost ethereal in its tenor.
