The Revela’t Contemporary Analog Photography Festival is the first analog festival in the world and has been held for twelve years in Vilassar de Dalt (Barcelona, Spain).
Overview
The festival is a month-long celebration of analog photography that includes exhibitions, markets, workshops, portfolio reviews, residencies and many other activities, bringing together in the same space relevant and emergent artists, some of them being exhibited for the first time. During the main weekend of the festival, all the authors meet in person, a multitude of activities and meetings are prepared such as a brunch with gallerists, curators, editors and other professionals in the photographic field, guided tours, presence in the media, conferences.
In this 12th edition of the Revela’t Contemporary Analog Photography Festival, the chosen theme is Identity. It’s a broad theme that can be simplified or understood as the set of characteristics that define an individual or a group in relation to others, leaving behind the limitations imposed by roles and societal expectations of the past. Today, identity emerges through a multitude of prisms: gender, culture, society, intimacy, and technology intertwine to create polyphonic and intricate portraits of who we are. Identity is not static, it’s a constantly changing and reinventing process.
Revela’t invites visitors to observe, explore, and represent identity from various perspectives. Identity as an evolving canvas, a mosaic of faces and experiences that intertwine, diverge, and converge. It’s a celebration of diversity and an affirmation of the universal threads that connect us. Their goal is to expand this idea and represent it from updated viewpoints.
