Urban Photo Fest is an international photographic festival focusing on urban photography and associated visual research. The international event draws on a wide range of approaches to image-making within contemporary and historical city-based photography and lens-media arts. Its primary aim is to provide critical engagement within and between the fields of visual urbanism, lens-based arts practices, photojournalism, filmmaking, urban sociology, cultural geography, anthropology and art history; in order to encourage dialogue between the visual and theoretical realms.
