LOOK13, Liverpool's international photography festival, has announced the theme, dates and delivery team.
LOOK13, one of the UK's leading photography festivals, will be launched on Liverpool's Light Night, 17 May 2013. Taking place in venues across the city, it will present an exciting mix of events, exhibitions, participative projects and public realm works.
LOOK13 asks 'who do you think you are?'. It looks at what happens when we turn the camera on ourselves and others, to explore or project images about identity, subjectivity and the self. The theme will be developed through a wide range of material, from historical archives to cutting-edge contemporary work by photographers from Liverpool, the UK and beyond.
LOOK13's programme will reflect the multiplicity and dynamism of photography, featuring solo and group presentations, historical and contemporary material, emerging and established artists, gallery-based and public-realm works, participative projects, performances, competitions and screenings.
The festival's launch night of 17 May 2013 joins forces with Liverpool's Light Night, a city-wide late-night extravaganza of events, performances, previews and parties. An event-packed long launch weekend, from 16 to 19 May, will feature the National Photography Symposium (presented by Redeye), portfolio reviews, talks by artists and curators, workshops and pop-up studios. LOOK13 exhibitions will be open to the public throughout the main festival period - from 18 May to 15 June - with many running throughout the summer.
