Press Kit 2o1o
6th edition - November 2o to 27 2o1o
SIEM REAP – CAMBODIA
The first photo festival created in Southeast Asia
Created in 2oo5, the Angkor Photo Festival is the first such event to be organized in Southeast Asia.
Each year, the week long festival showcases exhibitions and outdoor slideshows by celebrating international
and emerging Asian photographers’ works in Siem Reap. The temples of Angkor become a hub that draws
both famous and passionate photographers from around the world in creativity and sharing spirit.
The strong educational goals of the Angkor Photo Festival set it apart from other photography events.
During their stay, famous photographers tutor Angkor Photo Workshops for emerging Asian photographers
and the festival also presents its outreach programs Anjali Children’s Photo Workshops.
For the festival’s 2o1o program, 11o photographers, including 5o Asian photographers, will present their
works photographed around the world. This is consistent with the festival’s mission of highlighting emerging
Southeast Asian photographers. These works are curated by two well-known figures in photography, Yumi
Goto and Antoine d’Agata, as well as by Françoise Callier (Program Director of the Angkor Photo Festival).
All events at the festival are entirely free of charge !
