Foam Talk: Spotlight on Talent: 23 March, 6.30-9pm | ICP International Center of Photography | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From the series Lviv – God’s Will, 2017 © Viacheslav Poliakov | | | | | | Foam returns to Red Hook Labs in Brooklyn, New York to present Foam Talent; the group exhibition bringing together 20 international artists selected through the annual Foam Talent Call for Foam Magazine.
The artists featured in Foam Talent use photography to investigate a myriad of historical and contemporary notions. Applying their own unique language of image and form, they examine the world, sometimes in ways that are strongly engaged or even activist in nature, at times with irony, or a lightness of touch. These 20 image-makers are constantly introducing us to unexpected applications of media and digital aesthetics.
