What is the Medium Review?
The Medium Portfolio Review takes place over two days at the Lafayette Hotel in San Diego. The review is a chance for photographers to meet gallery owners, photo editors, museum curators, art space directors, and book and magazine publishers who are there to see new photography. Each participating photographer is scheduled for eight twenty-minute meetings in which to share their work with these reviewers.
The review is also a great chance to get to know fellow-photographers as well as attend artist lectures and other events. The Medium Review prides itself on being a small, welcoming, relaxed and supportive environment for everyone who attends.
