Copenhagen Photo Festival celebrates its 10 year anniversary on June 6-16 with a new festival center in the city’s new creative and culinary area, Refshaleøen, and exhibitions all over Copenhagen and Scania – a total of 64 exhibitions with more than 300 photographers.

The programme includes Mary Frey (US), Espen Rasmussen (NO), Per Bak Jensen (DK),
Fiona Tan (NL),
Keld Helmer-Petersen (DK), Mathias Svold & Ulrik Hasemann (DK)
as well as solo exhibitions with talents chosen among 217 applicants:
Franziska Gilli (IT), Marco Marzocchi (IT), Jana Sophia Nolle (DE), Mathias Løvgreen (DK) and Garrett O. Hansen (US).

Together with Reffen – Cph Street Food, a must-visit according to Lonely Planet, and Copenhagen Contemporary, we present a programme that not only celebrates Danish photography, but also takes relevant questions up for discussion. About xenophobia, staging reality through photography and photography as a form of art – in exciting new surroundings.
