Nida International Photographers' Symposium 2020

Biography

The International Photographers' Symposium in Nida is one of the longest-running professional photography events in Lithuania. The first symposium in Nida took place in 1973 and the event has been held annually from then onwards. From the very beginning its goal was to provide a space for photographers, curators and cultural professionals to meet, exchange ideas, create and respond to global trends and contemporary issues. A section of Nida 2020 was given over to the A Woman's Work symposium, with an accompanying portfolio review. The programme included:
