FotoFest 2010 is opening in Houston soon and there are enough curatorial dialogues, lectures, workshops and portfolio reviews to tide us all over until 2012 (and that’s not even including the numerous exhibitions happening).

Workshops are just $75 and take place on March 16^th and 21^st.

FotoFest’s International Portfolio Review has four separate sessions to attend. You can still register here.

All exhibitions are free to the public, and with this year’s theme being Contemporary U.S. Photography the who's who of the US photographic community will be a plenty.

Whether you’re a student, professor, young artist or seasoned vet, FotoFest is THE photography event to attend and it lasts over a month!

Between the David Alan Harvey workshop and lecture in Austin, FotoFest in Houston, and of course that little thing called SXSW, March stands to be quite eventful for photography in Texas.

Stay tuned and we’ll keep you up to date on the openings, workshops and lectures from FotoFest.

The FotoFest 2010 Biennial, the Thirteenth International Biennial of Photography and Photo-related Arts takes place March 12 through April 25, 2010 in Houston, Texas. The FotoFest Biennial is the longest running and most acclaimed photography biennial in the United States. Five curators are invited to put together the exhibition program, which focuses on Contemporary U.S. Photography. The FotoFest 2010 Biennial will also see the return of its most popular programs: the Meeting Place Portfolio Review, the FotoFest Fine Print Auction, the FotoFest Workshops, as well as Curatorial Dialogues, Symposia, and film and video programs that will encompass the whole city of Houston for a month and a half. In addition to the exhibitions produced by FotoFest, The FotoFest 2010 Biennial features hundreds of exhibitions at Participating Spaces across the city. These spaces include every major museum and non-profit art space, most commercial galleries, corporate office spaces and dozens of retail and restaurant spaces.
