Contact Toronto Photography Festival 2009: Junction BIA Call for Submissions


CONTACT 2009 THEMATIC FOCUS: STILL REVOLUTION
Still Revolution will look back to the revolutionary foundations of photography while looking forward to the innovations that are stimulating a transformation of the role and function of the medium.
