Mobile eyephoneography (Murcia)

Ir a la versión española

After the second stop of Mobile eyephoneography in Barcelona, the third stop in its itinerary will be at the Fnac in Murcia. On Saturday, 14 January 2012, the show will open and will stay at this venue until 22 February 2012.

This traveling exhibit is the result of the collaboration between eyephoneography and Fnac and features a selection of the work by the eight mobile photographers featured in the two editions of eyephoneography held so far: Carlein van der Beek (The Netherlands), Matt Burrows (USA), Sion Fullana (Spain), Stefano Giogli (Italy), Marco La Civita (Italy), MissPixels (Canada), Jordi V. Pou (Spain) and Greg Schmigel (USA).

Since September 2011 and until at least March 2013, Mobile eyephoneography will tour eight Spanish cities aiming to establish a dialogue with local citizens about mobile photography with a vast array of activities.

This wonderful collection of images will change during the next months to include the four photographers that will have been selected for the recently announced eyephoneography #3.
