Background
Photon Gallery, inspired by events that took place in 2004 in a number of European cities under the name European Month of Photography initiated the Ljubljana Month of Photography, also with the purpose of expanding its project Photonic Moments from 2005. Up to 2008 it was organised annually, involving a great number of exhibitions and accompanying events in the Slovenia capital, focused on presenting contemporary trends in photography from different countries of South-eastern Europe and the broader international scene. After the 2008 edition, the festival's board decided to switch to a biennial format, and renamed it to Photonic Moments – Month of Photography.
Profile
Photonic Moments features carefully selected programme with a thorough overview of the international contemporary art and photography production and collaborates with a dispersed network of partner organizations. The festival's programme committee has involved several figures of Slovenian contemporary art and photography, e.g. Dejan Sluga, Miha Colner, Antonio Živkovič, Rajko Bizjak, Jan Babnik, Vasja Nagy and Peter Koštrun.
The Photonic Moments – Month of Photography 2010 presented a number of relevant internationally-based exhibitions and a strong accompanying programme. The main venue Cankarjev dom hosted the central group exhibition Tension Field exploring different tendencies in the development of art photography in the region accompanied by a two-day forum Talks on Contemporary Photography, while Museum and Galleries of Ljubljana hosted and co-organized three exhibitions at their venues: Lee Miller at the Jakopič Gallery, Trine Sondergaard & Gina Zaccharias at the City Art Gallery Ljubljana and Marko Jamnik at the Vžigalica Gallery.
