After seven days of thought-provoking photography by over 400 artists hailing from 43 countries, 61 exhibitions & installations, 43 talks & workshops - we've shared meals in our beer garden, watched splendid fireworks light up our East River skyline view, crossed paths with a spaceman and a pup named Gilbert wandering around our photo village.
OVER 70,000 people visited Photoville and experienced a unique way we tell our stories through images - quite a humbling and magnificent feat!
We're so pleased you've stepped through the Photoville gates and joined our growing photo-loving community. Each of you brought our photo village to life -- sharing your stories, connecting with old friends and making new ones, inspiring one another while getting inspired for future collaborations.
We really couldn't do it without our Partners, Artists, Friends and Supporters including Photo District News, Two Trees Management, One Brooklyn Bridge Park, Children's Charity Organization Smile Train, the Consulate General of the Netherlands, The Financial Times Narratively, Smorgasburg, Duggal Visual Solutions, Getty Images, Canon, Photoshelter and the DUMBO Business Improvement District
And of course we owe an enormous debt of gratitude to our hosts and partners in crime at Brooklyn Bridge Park for giving us the space, the support, and the freedom to make our dream of Photoville a reality!
A BIG Thank you to all of our Volunteers who were so brilliant and crucial to the running of such a large event!
Once a Photoville citizen, always a Photoville citizen. You're one of us now - so join us for a brief walk through Photoville in pictures. We'll be in touch in the coming weeks with more cool re-caps!
Onward to Photoville 2015 (and many photo adventures along the way),
