The Antiparos International Photo Festival (AIPF) is delighted to announce that the headliner and guest of honour at AIPF 2020 will be Korean photographer Youngho Kang.

One image can change us.

A picture, a moment can change the way we feel. Change how we see ourselves. Change our understanding and change the rules. Provoke and change history.

MPB puts photo and video kit into more hands, more sustainably. Every month, visual storytellers sell more than 20,000 cameras and lenses to MPB. Choose used and get affordable access to kit that doesn’t cost the earth. Sell the kit you’re not using to MPB. Trade in for the kit you need to create. Buy used, spend less and get more. Buy. Sell. Trade. Create.

Youngho Kang was born in 1970 in Seoul, South Korea, where he is well known as a commercial photographer. Often called "The Dancing Photographer", he communicates with his models through dance, or very much as a conductor, with music always playing in the background. 

The works exhibited at the AIPF are taken from his series "The Picture of the Photographer" and will be accompanied by a video presentation. For more information about Youngho Kang, take a look at his website. 

Call For Submissions

Submissions for the Antiparos International Photo Festival are now open and will run until 27 March. The theme of this year’s festival is 'The Wild Side' and photographers wishing to submit work can do so on the AIPF 2020 website.
