Opening Reception: February 6, 5-9pm 

The Exposure Photography Festival is a month-long celebration of photography across Alberta. They highlight exceptional contemporary work, create opportunities for emerging artists, and invite the public to engage with a wide variety of visual storytelling through juried open-call exhibitions and a diverse array of partner programming.

Since 2020, Contemporary Calgary has hosted Exposure’s open-call exhibitions: International Open Call and Emerging Photographers Showcase, as well as a solo exhibition featuring the previous festival’s Emerging Photographer of the Year. This year, Contemporary Calgary will also be hosting an additional exhibition as part of Exposure: Vivek Shraya: Niche.

Admission to the Exposure exhibitions is free and open to the public during regular gallery hours.
