The IYL Showcase is a high profile photography event with 20 images chosen by a Jury including Dazed & Confused, The Guardian, It's Nice That, British Journal of Photography, No Culture Icons, Art:i:Curate, Lomography, Der Greif, Paper Journal etc..
The exhibition runs for 3 weeks in 20 East London venues and has one of the main windows at Foyles Charing Cross Flagship store.
More Info..The IYL Showcase (offshoot to the popular photography publication If You Leave) is an international photography competition acting as both a platform for upcoming photographers and an annual event to connect the global photographic community.In aiming for a more dynamic display than a conventional exhibition in a gallery space, we are working with 20 exciting local venues around East London, each hosting one of the final photographs.
We have also developed an app specifically for the Showcase that acts as both an information and voting platform to engage with our audience.We feel that not only is this an opportunity for local businesses to connect to their immediate community as well as expand their global network , but it is also a unique cultural event for a broad audience to participate in.To get a taster of the images that will be exhibited, please feel free to take a look at our shortlist: http://iylshowcase.tumblr.com/tagged/showcaseblog.
