Rhubarb Rhubarb Presents - The Crossing: A one day artist development event in London

Continuing the theme of the 2010 Rhubarb International Festival of Photography, this one day event considers the shifting terrain of the contemporary image world and what will be necessary for photographers to embrace to fulfill their creative aspirations and goals. With concerns such as future funding and commissioning; the impact of social engagement on the print market; the overlaps between commercial, documentary and fine art; the demise of the white wall gallery and the rise of the virtual showcase, stills becoming moving...

The Crossing asks one question – are you going to stay where you are, live in the past, or cross over into the new world offered to photographers through technology, tenacity and a mind shift around what is possible and how it can be achieved. Rhubarb brings together some of its favourite thinkers with new style partners such as DMB Media and those boys at Duckrabbit.
