FORMAT17: Open Call

Artists: Gijs van den Berg & Jan Dirk van der Burg, Christopher Bethell, Dominika Gesicka, Katrin Koenning, Drew Nikonowicz, Alexandra Polina and Alexey Shlyk

This group exhibition presents the work of photographers who have been selected via an international open call for projects in response to the FORMAT17 festival theme of HABITAT, and showcases diverse approaches to the theme, ranging from projects concerned with human impact and ecologies to an autobiographical journey across the United States in search of family truths.

FORMAT presents the best international photography talent in venues throughout Derby alongside a wide programme of talks, tours, workshops and interactive projects. The theme of FORMAT17 is ‘Habitat’ and takes place 24 March – 23 April 2017. FORMAT was founded in 2004 and is directed by Louise Clements, organised and hosted by QUAD and the University of Derby.
