Fotofestival Schiedam takes place from the 18th until the 28th of October 2018 and is an annual 10-day photo manifestation with exhibitions and activities showing current and actual developments in photography. The program is based on a theme that explores the relationship between photography and the world because this once trusted medium increasingly shapes and colors to the way we perceive our reality. Fotofestival Schiedam wants to highlight exciting and high-quality imagery that does justice to the complexity of contemporary seeing, showing that there is a world of choices and thoughts hidden behind the final result.
The theme of the festivals sixth edition is Re: Search. A theme that explores and contextualizes the role of the photographer as researcher and renaissance man. The festival contextualizes the theme by programming exhibitions and offering artistic interventions between disciplines. It also offers a fringe program for a broad audience ranging from amateurs to professionals that consists of lectures, workshops, and guided tours.
