Contemporary Photography

FESTIVAL OF PHOTOGRAPHY

Photography is one of the most diverse and prolific areas of contemporary art, including the work of multi-disciplinary artists and practitioners who see themselves in the more traditional guise of ‘photographer’. As part of the NGV Festival of Photography, explore two galleries dedicated to new acquisitions by international and Australian emerging and established artists. Works actively collected by the NGV in recent years include some of the most challenging and exciting photographers working today, such as Elad Lassry, Sophie Calle, Paola Pivi, Pieter Hugo, Danny Singer, Ceal Floyer, Lucia Koch, David Rosetzky, Polly Borland, Adam Fuss and Thomas Demand.
