ARTSingapore will celebrate this October with its first Asia International Photography Fair (AIPF) poised to show the diversity of contemporary photography as artistic form within the scope of major contemporary art. AIPF will be devoted to the photographic art genre, which demonstrates that this once denigrated art is now part of the mainstream.

This International photography fair will take place in conjunction with ARTSingapore 2009. The project is specifically produced to meet the demands of a specialised market on art photography and intends to act as an engine to develop cultural, leisure and business activities in this new area. This would make AIPF an artistic meeting point for both photography enthusiasts and art collectors in Asia Pacific.

AIPF seeks to bring together contemporary art galleries & studios devoted to photography. Applications would be vetted and chosen by a committee depending on their artistic trajectory and their contributions towards the photographic scene.
