October Photo is coming with a month of presentations at the Italian Institute of Photography, www.istitutoitalianodifotografia.it
The first weekend—October 3rd and 4th—will be dedicated to Street Photography, featuring an event organized by ISP (Italian Street Photography).
We will be joined by many photographers previously published in CITIES Magazine, who will give fascinating talks. The event follows a format inspired by TEDx—one of the world’s leading platforms for culture—featuring short, free, public presentations (20 minutes each with an extra 5 minutes for questions/answers). These will be repeated on Saturday afternoon (2:30 PM – 6:00 PM) and Sunday morning (10:00 AM – 1:30 PM) to ensure everyone has the chance to attend.
