Topic: New, Novelty, Novelty

Purpose: The subject of the photography exhibition is determined in parallel with the theme of the second international cinema symposium, "NEW", and the interpretation of the subject was left to the photographers. In this context, what the concept of "NEW" means in today's photography as a "photographic vision" is aimed to be concretized through photographs by questioning the concept of "new" in a wide spectrum of producing-consuming photographs.
