PRESENTATION

Tangophoto. Towards a dance, movement flowing into movement. The photographer in the flux, making a moment.

A multicultural group, a multiplicity of experience, a cosmopolitain ogranization. Supported by a network of cultural insitutions, media, editors, agencies, independent photographers and creative artists, Tangophoto functions not in a single office in a single city, but as a web across many cities around the globe.

The members of Tangophoto support a free photography, a documentation of many perspectives. Created in 1996, Tangophoto's nine members grouped in order to produce and distribute their images. These photographers emphasize long-term projects and experimentations that explore the varied paths between documentary photography and contemporary photo-art.

Their work has been shown in many international newspapers: Le Monde, Courrier International, Libération, L'Humanité, The New York Times, The Guardian, Frankfurter Allgemeine; international magazines: Leica World, Zoom, Private, Soda Magazine; and has exhibited regularly: Photo Biennale de Canton, RIP Arles, Festival des Trois Continents, Visa pour l’Image Perpignan.
