WELCOME TO THE
2015 FESTIVAL
Hahnemühle Photo Pearl
Digital Photo Media
Welcome to the 7th annual Filter Photo Festival!
This program is a guide to all four days of the Festival, from September 24th
through September 27th. Inside you’ll find a daily schedule of the workshops,
lectures, exhibition receptions, artists talks, and other programming taking
place (pages 4-5). With a plethora of events planned, from the aesthetic to the
technical to the social, there’s plenty to keep even the most avid photo lover
busy! We’re especially pleased to welcome artist/academic Penelope Umbrico
as this year’s keynote speaker.
As helpful as we hope the published schedule is, some of our favorite Festival
moments are those that take place by chance. Every year we look forward
to the atmosphere in the Festival Lounge, where attendees have a chance
to share their work and connect with each other. Thanks to our sponsors, the
Lounge is also a place where attendees can learn about a variety of resources
to help them realize their creative visions and professional goals.
This exclusive paper features a true Baryta coating below the ink-absorbing layer. This coating is comparable with
the structure of an analogue Baryta paper and allows for an extraordinary color space for brilliant color rendering.
In addition, the unique barium-sulphate coating ensures a remarkable picture result – from creamy shades of
white up to a velvety deep black. High color density and brilliance guarantee impressive detail sharpness for vivid
high-definition exhibition quality prints.
We’re proud to be contributing to the amazing photographic community that exists here in Chicago. In case you do have a little extra time during the Festival,
please consider exploring a little. A full listing of area exhibitions taking place
concurrently with the Festival is listed in the later part of this program (pages
31-35).
2015 has been a big year for Filter Photo! In February we opened the doors
to Filter Space, a new photographic arts venue for exhibtions, workshops, and
projects. If you haven’t had a chance to visit yet (or even if you have!), please
join us on Sunday the 27th for a closing Festival celebration/juror’s reception
for our exhibition Abstract.
Thank you again for joining us. Whether you’re here for one event or for all four
days, we hope you have an excellent Festival experience!
