PHOTOMONTH IN KRAKOW — 2010
For the fifth time, we are holding the PORTFOLIO REVIEW, one of the flagship events of Photomonth in Krakow 2010.
On Saturday May 15th from 11:00 a.m. till 5:30 p.m. at the Jewish Community Centre on ulica Miodowa 24 in Krakow over a dozen professionals will be awaiting photography lovers who are hoping to make their names in the profession. The reviewers will be photographers, photography editors, editors, merchants, critics, and representatives of agencies, photography magazines and galleries.
The Portfolio Review is a one-day event aimed at both experienced photographers and those who are only starting off on their road. In either case, the Portfolio Review offers the opportunity to meet the professionals, who are ready to offer their knowledge and experience, and to show participants how they might go further.
This year our invited reviewers include:
• Bill Kouwenhoven - HotShoe Magazine (Germany)
• Beata ĹyĹźwa-SokóĹ – Gazeta Wyborcza (Poland)
• Krzysztof Miller – Photographer, Gazeta Wyborcza (Poland)
