comunicato stampa

The Tenth International Photography Gathering will be held from the October 1st through the 15th 2009. This annual Aleppo event is an international photography exhibit and festival accompanied by activities such as lectures, workshops, and musical concerts. International and local artists come together to show their work and participate in the activities. This year the International Photo Gathering will be held in an exciting new cultural venue, the Old Electric building, which lies in the heart of Aleppo. The Photo Gathering is now in its ninth year and has continued to grow and make a significant contribution to the cultural life of Aleppo and Syria. This success has encouraged us to continue working, and as a result more and more artists from around the globe are participating.

At this time, the Photography Gathering is expecting approximately forty-five artists from twenty-four participating countries including Armenia, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Iran, Italy, Jordan, Lebanon, Switzerland, Syria, and The United States of America….

The Electric Building is the new center for the festival. Contemporary art works hang on the eighty year-old walls in a newly renovated vast industrial space. In past years the exhibits have been held in the one hundred twenty year-old Shibani Building in the old city, in the Old Ottoman army building and in the Train Station. These buildings are now established as exciting cultural centers. Also, in the last two years it has been organized at Le Pont Gallery for political reasons.

The Photo Gathering lasts for 15 days, (October 1st through the 15th ). Attending artists are encouraged to host a workshop(s) during the exhibition and are provided with accommodation for a maximum of 3 days.
