There’s also a programme of talks:
The programme of talks, debates and round tables is designed to promote the collecting of photography and to inform both collectors and the general public on the evolution of contemporary photography since 1970 and its value on the art market. First-time photography buyers and members of the public will benefit from the experience of internationally-known experts whose presentations will provide an overall education on the subject as well as specialist knowledge on specific issues surrounding contemporary photography. Both seasoned collectors and the public will have the opportunity to ask questions and receive guidance from these leading figures in the world of photography.
