For the second year, Fotoweek took place in Washington, D.C. The event displays art exhibits, museums and other events that take place all throughout the city.
It's simple. All you have to do is get a pass, which is free, that will permit you to view all of the exhibits. A map and schedule are also conveniently included!
The first gallery consists of two floors of art work, from National Geographic displays, FotoWeek finalists awards and the works from photojournalists Peter van Agtmael and Pete Muller (which depict the aftermath of a conflict in northern Uganda.)
A projector also casts images on the side of the building in the evenings of FotoWeek.
Most of the work displayed in the FotoWeek galleries is news or documentation oriented.
Lots of photos of the devastation and conflicts people are going through appear in the galleries.
There are also several political pieces ranging from the White House to Barack Obama.
FotoWeek serves as a great opportunity for newer artists and photographers to display their works as well.
Pretty cool, just wish it was closer.
