WELCOME TO THE 8th EDITION

W

hen the festival first began in 2oo5, the town of Siem Reap had a rather different look. Back then, the now popular tourist-‐haunt of Pub Street was still an unpaved, muddy road, and the bustling alleyways downtown had more livestock and cattle than cafes and restaurants.

Just like the town that has hosted it for eight years, the Angkor Photo Festival has gone through several changes of its own. Over the years, we have been constantly refining and developing the event, so as to bring us closer and closer to our aim of having the best international platform for photography in the region.

We work hard to keep all our events free, affordable and accessible, so as to be as inclusive as possible. We want people to feel that this is a festival that welcomes you regardless of who you are, where you're from, and what you do.

One of the most rewarding aspects of being a part this festival is being able to witness photographers whose work was first shown at our festival go on to become recognised for their talent and work.

In deciding this year's programme, it wasn't only a question of our own taste -‐ we also took note of what has captured the attention of others, especially the emerging generation of younger photographers. Photography is always evolving, new ways of story-‐telling are emerging all the time -‐ and it is the younger generation who are often the most knowledgable in this aspect.

The Angkor Photo Festival does not impose a theme on any of our events. Instead, we concentrate on discovering and re-‐discovering talent from all over the world.

Change isn't always easy, but it is quite often necessary. In our case, we believe that these changes have made us better, and we hope you do too.

GUEST CURATORS Each year, the festival dedicates two evenings of slideshows to two well-‐known figures in photography, who are invited to present a showcase featuring work and photographers selected by them.

2 O12 EXHIBITIONS This year, 8th Angkor Photo Festival is proud to present ten exhibitions, held at indoor and outdoor locations all over Siem Reap. Curated by Programme Director Françoise Callier, this year’s line-‐up will take us from the north of Ethiopia to intimate spaces of Latin America; from watching fishermen on the beautiful beaches of Bali to scenes of life in India more than 4o years ago.

We’re also proud to present Andri Tambunan’s work on HIV/AIDS in Papua, an amazing project which won him the inaugural 2o11 Reminders Project Asian Photographers Grant.

This year also sees unique partnerships with two major international non-‐governmental organisations -‐ Greenpeace International and Médecins du Monde, highlighting the importance of photography for such organisations.
