About FOTO WIEN and EMOP
FOTO WIEN is a member of the European Month of Photography (EMOP), a European joint project that currently includes photo festivals in Berlin, Brussels, Lisbon, Luxembourg and Paris. The initiative, which started in Paris in 2003, aims to promote cooperation on a European level, strengthen the international photography scene and support young artists. The biennial festival was first held in Vienna in 2004 under the name Eyes On and will be continued as FOTO WIEN from 2019. The former insider event for Vienna’s vibrant photography scene has grown into Austria’s largest festival of photographic images in just under twenty years of combined commitment. It offers a program for a broad audience interested in art and current affairs as well as for professional visitors. The festival is funded by the Cultural Department of the City of Vienna. Since 2023 the organizer is FOTO ARSENAL WIEN.
