Breda Photo Fair
2nd International Photo Fair

From the 23rd to 25th of  September 2005 Breda Photo Fair will be presenting 
an international company of photo gallery's, art photographs, publishers and 
specialized antiquarian book dealers. Breda Photo Fair forms part of the 
photo festival Breda Photo 2005.

A great number of cultural activities take place throughout the year under 
the late gothic arches of  "Onze Lieve Vrouwen" church - the most beautiful 
building of Breda. Breda Photo Fair has chosen this magnificent location to 
organize the 2nd International Photo Fair, an unique event in the Benelux 
whereby quality and diversity are of the highest priority. The set-up of the 
fair is professional and luxurious and is managed by the same organisation 
as the antique fair "Antiqui Breda".

Ambitions
The ambitions are high. Breda Photo Fair will develop into an event that can 
meets the same level as the photo fairs in London, Paris, Cologne and New 
York.

Interest
The national and international interest in photography is growing. Museums 
often buy photo collections, the number of private individuals that collect 
art photos is rising and an increasing number of gallery's specialise in art 
photography. Breda Photo Fair will therefore host a number national and 
international galleries.

Since the development of photography as an art form many devoted publishers 
and designers have published expensive and rare photo books. Breda Photo 
Fair will host a selective group of publishers and dealers in rare book.

New talent
Besides national and international photo galleries, independent art 
photographers are invited to present themselves to the public and the 
professional photo galleries. Before the application to attend the fair is 
approved the collection of the photographer is subject to inspection by an 
independent vetting committee. An additional condition is that the 
photographer is not represented by a national or international photo 
gallery.

Breda Photo 2005
Breda Photo Fair forms part of the festival Breda Photo 2005. In 2003 the 
festival received a lot of national and international publicity.

With the title 'Imaginary Beauty' Breda Photo 2005 starts on the 17th of 
September and closes five weeks later on the 23rd of October. A series of 
exhibitions in the "Beyerd", Breda's Museum and "Lokaal 01" will focus on 
this theme. Besides that there are many smaller exhibitions spread over 
several locations within the boundaries of the city.

The heart of the festival is the Photo Hall which offers an experimental 
program: short exhibitions, lectures, workshops, performances, links with 
other disciplines and meetings with photographers and photo collectors. As 
in 2003 an "Amateur Weekend" and "Youth Project" will be held. A close 
cooperation is established with the photo museum in Rotterdam and Antwerp.
