The theme exhibition ‘The Wind of Time’ of Lianzhou Foto Festival 2018 will gather the work of 25 local and international photographers, all investigating the ways we have shaped our world to fit our modern needs, technological ambitions, globalized and liberal ideals – and how in turn, this new modern world has shaped us, impacted labour and trade, modified the way we interact and occupy space. Curated by French curator Jérôme Sother, the theme exhibition will present artists such as Mathieu Pernot, Mohamed Abakar, Jacqueline Hassink, Yann Mingard, Oliver Sieber, Zhou Tao, Tom Wood, Salvatore Vitale, David de Beyter, Eline Benjaminsen, Lau Wai and more.
