Paris Photo 2009

Paris Photo - the world's biggest photography event, takes place this week between the 19th and 22nd of Nov. The event is scheduled to showcase 89 galleries from 23 different countries. It is a great place to meet and greet international photographers besides other photography enthusiasts and collectors. Paris Photo 2009 is expected to be attended by thousands of visitors over the 4 days. So, if you are an amibitious photographer, this is that 'not-to-be missed' event of the year :-) This year the spotlight is on Arab countries and Iran - an intriguing subject given that photography as an art and a way of expression, is relatively new in that part of the world!

As you would guess, a team from FotoTV is heading to Paris....right where all the action is. And if you are too, then do catch us at the event!

FROM OUR NEW VIDEOS DEPARTMENT - First, we have have a vidoe featuring Julia-Fullerton Batten, a world famous female photographer. In an exclusive conversation with FotoTV she tells us how her teenage years unconsciously triggered her first major fine art photography project. Second video, demonstrates how you can make a heavy duty Boom Stand with things bought from a hardware store!
Howzzat?
