Despite many changes to the format of the annual Photoville festival, Tisch Photography & Imaging is again well-represented.

Now in its 9th season, Photoville is primarialy online and outdoors this year. The iconic temporary galleries in shipping containers are nowhere to be found, and there are no crowds or temporary restaurants in Brooklyn Bridge Park this fall. Despite the challenges of the COVID-19 panedemic, the United Photo Industries team has organized a full slate of outdoor banners and virtual events

We are thrilled to be presenting an outdoor banner at Photoville 2020 with excerpts from the senior thesis projects of 23 recently graduated young artists who received their BFAs from NYU Tisch Photography & Imaging in 2020.

In addition to the outdoor exhibition, the 2020 cohort of Tisch Future Imagemakers will host an online panel on October 15 for Photoville's Education Day.
