Foto Art Festival 2025

Foto Art Festival 2025: 20 Years of Photography and Dialogue
Bielsko-Biała, Poland | October 10–12, 2025

Held at the foot of the Beskidy Mountains in city of Bielsko-Biała, the Foto Art Festival has been bringing together photographers and photography lovers from around the world for two decades. The 11th edition will feature individual exhibitions by artists from 16 countries across Europe and the Americas, with works ranging from classic documentary to experimental visual storytelling—many of them shown in Poland for the first time.

A signature element of the festival is the Photographer’s Marathon (October 11–12), where exhibiting artists and invited guests present their work, share creative processes, and engage in dialogue with audiences from Poland and beyond.

This year’s programme also includes contributions from professionals working at the intersections of art, psychology, and creative resilience. Among them, The Green Room’s founder Heather O’Donnell will offer a keynote presentation and lead a workshop for photographic artists—inviting reflection on the psychological dimensions of long-term creative practice.
