Foam Talent | Berlin 2020

Foam präsentiert vom 22. Oktober bis 1. November die Ausstellung Foam Talent 2020 mit Werken einer neuen Generation bildender Künstler.

Öffnungszeiten: 12-18 Uhr, Eintritt frei

Jedes Jahr lädt Foam Fotografen dazu ein, Portfolios über den Talent Call einzureichen – eine internationale Suche nach außergewöhnlich talentierten Fotografen unter 35 Jahren. Ausgewählte Fotografen erhalten internationale Bekanntheit und Anerkennung in der Fotoindustrie durch eine Reihe von Karrieremöglichkeiten, die Foam bietet. Dazu gehören die Veröffentlichung im Foam Magazine, die Teilnahme an einer Gruppenausstellung und die Möglichkeit, dass die eigenen Arbeiten in die renommierte Kunstsammlung Deutsche Börse der Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation in Frankfurt aufgenommen werden.

On the occasion of the European Month of Photography, Foam proudly presents the first Berlin-edition of the exhibition Foam Talent 2020, showcasing works from a new generation of visual artists at KühlhausBerlin. Together, the 19 emerging artists featured in the exhibition are exceptionally placed to give us insight into the state of contemporary photography.

In light of Foam Talent 2020 Foam is organising a programme of talks and the official opening on Wednesday 21 October.
