EXPOSURE 2022 EXHIBITIONS 

The Exposure 2022 exhibition programme has nearly doubled in size, encompassing over 40 shows that display a wide range of narratives, subjects, practices, and explorations of the photographic medium. Exposure’s 2022 exhibitions promise an exciting and diverse programme of group and solo exhibitions and diverse curatorial themes that audiences can engage with in Calgary, Banff, Canmore, Edmonton, Grimshaw, Red Deer, and Lethbridge, hosted in galleries, local businesses, outdoors and online! See here for the full Exposure 2022 programme of exhibitions, participating venues and exhibiting artists.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge that the Exposure Photography Festival takes place on the traditional Treaty 7 territory of the Blackfoot confederacy: Siksika, Kainai, Piikani as well as the Îyâxe Nakoda and Tsuut’ina nations. We acknowledge that this territory is home to the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region 3 within the historical Northwest Métis homeland. We would also like to acknowledge that Exposure Photography Festival is situated on land adjacent to where the Bow River meets the Elbow River, and the traditional Blackfoot name of this place is “Moh’kins’tsis”, which we now call the City of Calgary. Finally, we honour and acknowledge all Nations, indigenous and non, who live, work and play in Moh’kins’tsis and help steward this land and honour and celebrate this territory. 

COVID-19

We are doing our best to keep up with rapidly changing rules and regulations in the City of Calgary and Province of Alberta. Please check with venues for real-time updates on opening times and requirements.
