Photo-Festivals believes that mobility is an intrinsic part of the creative artistic process that can truly enhance and enrich an artist’s work.

With this in mind, Photo-Festivals invites a photographer to travel and attend for the first time a photography festival in Europe.

Crossing point residency is designed to help photographers create links with other international photographers. The artist in residence is placed in a shared house to exchange experiences and photography practice with his or her peers.
Photo-festivals arranges meetings and portfolio reviews to help photographers to create contacts with practitioners in the field of contemporary photography.

So far Photo-Festivals has invited two photographers to attend the professional week of two renowned festivals in France.

Juan Pablo Echeverri
	Photo-Festivals was thrilled to launch its residency program Crossing Point with Colombian artist Juan Pablo Echeverri, who we invited to Les Rencontres Internationales de la Photographie d’Arles 2008.
Vicente Jaime Villafranca
	Following the success of the first Crossing Point residency, Photo-Festivals has been pleased to repeat the experience, inviting Filippino photographer Vicente Jaime (“Veejay”) Villafranca to the Festival Visa pour l’Image 2008 in Perpignan.
