ISSP 2013 noslēguma darbu fotoprojekcijas "Šķūnī", LU Botāniskā dārza teritorijā

Pasākuma "Šķūnis" ietvaros, Baltajā naktī, šo sestdien, 7.septembrī no plkst. 18.00 - 21.30 rādīsim ISSP 2013 noslēguma darbu fotoprojekcijas.

Vieta - lieliskā un mājīgā jaunā kafejnīcā "Šķūnis", LU Botāniskajā dārza teritorijā (Kandavas ielā 2), blakus tauriņu mājai.

Daudzveidīgajos ISSP 2013 noslēguma darbos fotogrāfi pievērsušies mūsdienu Latvijas vides dokumentācijai, dziļi personiskiem stāstiem un līdzcilvēku portretiem. Projekcijās būs redzami arī grāmatu taisīšanas meistarklases rezultāti. Jāpiebilst, ka šī ir pagaidām vienīgā vieta Rīgā, kur plānots prezentēt ISSP 2013 rezultātus! (Izstāde gan apskatāma Kuldīgas mākslas namā līdz pat 29.septembrim)

Profesionāļu aprindās par Eiropā labāko dēvētajā fotogrāfijas vasaras skolā, kas Latvijā norisinās jau astoto gadu, šogad piedalās 71 fotogrāfs no 23 pasaules valstīm. Šogad meistarklases vadīja viens no pazīstamākajiem ASV laikmetīgajiem fotogrāfiem Tods Haido; māksliniece un pasniedzēja, pārlaicīgo fotogrāfiju autore Estere Teihmanedaudzkārtējais “World Press Photo” un citu balvu laureāts, fotožurnālists Jurijs Kozirevs kopā ar “Russian Reporter Magazine” fotoredaktoru Andreju Poļikanovu; atzītā Somijas pašportretiste Elina Broterusa; viens no pasaules labākajiem fotogrāmatu speciālistiem Teuns van der Heidens, kā arī Francijas fotožurnālistikas pionieris Jans Morvans.

Turpat "Šķūnī" no 21.30 videoinstalācija "Augošā māja" un 22:30 Vizuāli muzikāls meža ceļojums ar grupu “DAS SONNTAGS LEGION".

ISSP is moving to Kuldīga

Now, this is not a 1st April joke, its official: the ISSP international summer school is moving to Kuldīga! Though it all happened a little suddenly, we are happy with the new situation. The new location, Pelči boarding school, is 4 km away from town, so we’ll keep all the intimacy of the campus. Kuldīga is a gem and a runner up UNESCO world heritage site, it will for sure charm everyone.
Besides, we will have a real castle all for ourselves - imagine ! :)
