The Association of Photographic Artists began a collaboration with Korjaamo Culture Factory at the start of 2020. The collaboration enables the production and presentation of events in a new context and space that benefits both organisations. Under normal conditions, over 100,000 visitors attend to public, cultural and corporate events at Korjaamo. Hippolyte Korjaamo increases the exposure of photographic artworks and exhibitions in the Helsinki cultural scene.<\/p>\n
The exhibitions are selected on an open call basis. Only members of the Association of Photographic Artists can apply.<\/strong> Artist groups and curators can also apply with a finalised exhibition concept if at least one member of the group is a member of the association. The exhibition programme is based on photographic art, and proposals with a strong link to photographic art or the extended field of photography are preferred.<\/p>\n Hippolyte Korjaamo is located in Korjaamo Culture Factory , T\u00f6\u00f6l\u00f6, near to the National Opera. The address is T\u00f6\u00f6l\u00f6nkatu 51 a-b, 00250 Helsinki.<\/p>\n The exhibition space consists of two hanging walls in the gallery corridor at Korjaamo Culture Factory. The walls are 9,5 m wide and 5,3 m high (NB: see the location of the cinema emergency exit in the images below).
