MONTH OF PHOTOGRAPHY
Still/Moving: Photography & Cinema

Month of Photography (MoP), the annual Singapore-based photography festival, returns in 2008 with the theme of ‘Still/Moving: Photography & Cinema’. Comprising several exhibitions and talks, the festival explores the relationship between two art forms which share a common heritage and history: photography and cinema and looks into questions concerning the cinematic and the photographic. What are the convergences and divergences between photography and cinema? When and where do they come together and when and where do they separate?

In its sixth year, the Month of Photography 2008 will be on from 13 June to 20 July and features several exhibitions in various venues. Each of these exhibitions addresses the theme through different genres of photography with exhibits of classic to conceptual and experimental photographs. The festival also features a series of workshops, talks and lectures led by artists and photographers.
