1 ottobre - 14 novembre 2010, Brighton (Gran Bretagna)
Brighton Photo Biennial 2010, entitled, New Documents, is guest curated by the internationally renowned photographer, editor and curator Martin Parr. Brighton Photo Biennial 2010: New Documents will reflect the immediacy and vibrancy of contemporary photographic practice by a new generation of practitioners, the eclectic passions found in collections of historic and vernacular photography produced by commercial and amateur photographers, and present new commissions by internationally celebrated photographers informed and inspired by the diverse communities and contexts of Brighton & Hove. Artists and photographers include: Wout Berger (NLD), Mohamed Bourouissa (DZ), Alejandro Chaskielberg (ARG), Josef Heinrich Darchinger (DEU), Esteban Pastorino Diaz (ARG), Ju Duoqi (CHN), Stephen Gill (UK), Oscar Fernando Gomez (MEX), Rinko Kawauchi (JPN), Molly Landreth (USA), Oumar Ly (SEN), Dhruv Malhotra (IND), Billy Monk (ZAF), Suzanne Opton (USA), Viviane Sassen (NLD), Alec Soth (USA) and Zoe Strauss (USA). Many of these artists will visit Brighton & Hove to present on their work during the Biennial Opening Weekend. The curated programme will be presented in partner venues: Brighton Museum & Art Gallery, Fabrica, Lighthouse, the University of Brighton Gallery and an unusual, alternative exhibition space, and working with Design Council Archives and Photoworks all in the centre of Brighton & Hove. Visitors can view the entire Biennial programme by foot. All the images will be pinned onto the wall, making BPB 2010 the first frame-free photography festival in the world. A related programme of photography exhibitions will be presented in Biennial partner venues across the South East: Aspex (Portsmouth), Pallant House Gallery (Chichester), Towner (Eastbourne) and De La Warr Pavilion (Bexhill on Sea). The BPB 2010 education programme responds to Parr’s curatorial vision. Multi-platform, artist led projects will present projected, texted, installed, moving, mobile and online photographic images during the Biennial period created by young people from Brighton & Hove and across the South East.
