Middle Town: Picturing the Unspectacular, carried out by ISSP, GAPO and FotoForum, has engaged 12 emerging photographers from Latvia, Turkey, Poland, Estonia and Italy. Two workshops – initial one in Turkey in March 2012 and an editing workshop in Latvia in August 2012 were carried out, led by experienced Dutch mentors, curator Bas Vroege and photographer Hans van der Meer, being the collective moment for the realisation of work.
Each of the participants carried out an individual documentary project within the subject. The results have been put together in form of 11 dummy books and two video works. In addition the newspaper summing up the whole project is printed.
