It's Been Golden

Exposure 2010 comes to a close today and I have to say I wish it could keep going on for another month.

From the brilliant photography from Japan showcased at Triangle Gallery, the stunning new work of Bill Anderson at Banff's Whyte Museum of the Canadian Rockies, poignant black & white portraits by Erin Wallace at Canmore's Avens Gallery to the awe inspiring presentation by Larry Towell - Canada's leading photojournalist. This is photographic art at its very best.

A special thanks goes out to the festival's sponsors: VISTEK, Calgary Arts Development and Gowlings. Also sponsor Lowepro for providing seven camera bags which were given out as prizes at select special events during the Festival.

Without the support of the sponsors, galleries, media and the broader photographic community Exposure would not be possible.

A special thank-you also goes out to the Board of Exposure 2010 with Craig Richards as the Chairman working tirelessly to make the Festival the success it is.

The Board is already working on Exposure 2011 where even more photographic art will be exhibited, viewed, discussed and enjoyed.

Photography plays a vital part of our cultural experience and Exposure is determined to be the most listened to voice in Southern Alberta promoting this wide ranging and dynamic art form.
