Every two years you will find the «Images» as the largest photo festival in Switzerland. 50 years of experience with the program, which are based on fascinating themes such as Swiss analogue photography and intellectual property.

Zur diesjährigen Biennale Images in Vevey are the organizers, under the artistic Leitung von Stefano Stoll, were Besonderes und Zugleich Zeitgemässes einfallen lassen. The artistic intelligence is no longer in the form of the form, but can be one of the principal figures in more lives – and perhaps also bare in creative photography. Stefano Stoff compares this Entwicklung in seiner Einleitung zur diesjährigen Biennale with a «seismic Verwerfung two tectonic Platten», where our Zeitalter of an often idealizing Verleidingenheit moves in a number of versed Zukunft: «Selten war these Geschichte Zeuge are so separated Moments, denn unsere Gegenwart is in broader sprüchlichen Strömungen gefangen. The technological development of the years – how the world is moving from analog to digital age, if you visit the internets and social networking sites, there is now a single – mirror of a ground legend walk in the wider community. I think the intelligent intelligence is a “is the source of our stories, our habits, our ideas and our beliefs,” says Stefano Stoll.

The fun collections of the images are based on the theme “(dis)connected” and reflect the aussergewöhnliche and entscheidende Zeit broader, in the life, a Rätsel, in the unvermeidliche Nostalgia on the Neugier, in an unforgettable Zukunft trifft.
