Photoville 2013, A Photo Exhibition Village Made From Shipping Containers in Brooklyn, NYC
Brooklyn-based art cooperative United Photo Industries will host the second annual Photoville, a pop-up photo exhibition village made from shipping containers, in Brooklyn Bridge Park from September 19th to 29th, 2013. Feature Shoot has compiled a list of 15 must-see exhibitions, panels, and events at this year’s Photoville.
PHOTOVILLE is a new Brooklyn-based photo destination, a pop-up village of freight containers transformed into temporary exhibition spaces, which first took place in the summer of 2012. Photoville featured a feisty mix of exhibitions, lectures, hands-on workshops, night-time projections, a photo dog-run, a camera-flower greenhouse, and a summer beer-garden with food trucks that created a photography destination like no other.
Occupying more than 60,000 sq. feet in the heart of Brooklyn Bridge Park, in its first year Photoville was located on the uplands of Pier 3, along the Brooklyn Waterfront and attracted close to 40,000 visitors over 2 long weekends.
