Kythera Photographic Encounters

About Kythera Photographic Encounters

Kythera Photographic Encounters (in Greek, Φωτογραφικές Συναντήσεις Κυθήρων) is an annual photographic event taking place at the end of every September on the Greek island of Kythera (Cerigo). First started in 2002 and organised by the non-profit Kythera Cultural Association under the artistic direction of John Stathatos, they bring together a cross-section of Greek photographers, photography critics, art historians and curators for four days of exhibitions, lectures, seminars and assorted events, leavened by informal debates on all aspects of photography. Though the emphasis is on Greek photo.
