Young Greek Photographers 2010

Antzela Svoronou

Since 1987, the Young Greek Photographers Exhibition has been trying to constructively contribute to the effort of new artists presenting their work to a wider audience and bring forth the contemporary photographic production of young Greek artists. Proof of the importance of this particular exhibition in the Greek photo scene is that many of today’s most acknowledged photographers were first featured in it.

In an era of global economic, social and environmental crisis, young photographers are searching for ways to surmount the impediments of every new start and test their abilities through the unique process towards their artistic maturity. The work presented here was selected out of a large number of participants, which proves a blooming of artistic production as well as the advancement of this art in Greece.

Diverse elements and multiple approaches are met through a pluralism of techniques and styles reflecting the freshness of a new point of view.
