For the first time in its 7-year span of existence- Photoville landed in Los Angeles, CA. Created by the United Photo Industries and presented by the Annenberg Space of Photography- this was a massive interactive exhibition- with its photo cubes, light boxes, shipping containers, work shops, night time projections, and live talks by some of the most influential photographers. This festival was not to be missed by any photography junkie. Located outside the Annenberg Space of Photography lawn area & surrounded by high rise buildings in the middle of L.A, this really set a beautiful display for the exhibition itself. I had so much fun walking around, exhibiting works of many talented photographers, eating delicious food, and snapping some shots myself. I loved the experience so much I found myself revisiting the exhibition a few times. I captured some photographs of my experience. Enjoy.
Alongside Photoville LA & Inside the Annenberg Space of Photography- exhibited Contact High- A Visual History of Hip Hop. From walls filled of some of the most memorable photographs to a short documentary with interviews of the photographers that captured some of the most iconic photographs in Hip Hop culture. You get to see and hear what it was like to capture the many classic photographs that embeds a time in the Hip Hop community and culture. Iconic photographs that will go down in history and the photographers that captured the shots. Curated by Vikki Tobak and creative directed by Fab 5 Freddy. This is a must see. On view April 26th through August 18th, 2019. Make sure not to miss this one. I have captured some of my favorite works below. Enjoy.
