2020 Visions

Exposure celebrates photography by hosting thoughtfully curated exhibitions that showcase internationally renowned practitioners alongside emerging and established talent from Alberta. Exposure provides an exciting, innovative meeting place for practitioners to connect and communicate with curators and industry professionals from around the world. This year, through its program of exhibitions, portfolio reviews, artist talks, discussions and events, Exposure 2020 explores what photography has been, what it is now, and what it can be. Through the lens of 2020 Visions we engage with photography’s current place in contemporary art and begin to envision the future of the medium.
