Last sunday 17th of June was the last day of photo basel 2018. A week full of photography, art, conversations and networking. ALPA is proud to have presented the first ALPA Award to Yoko Ikeda, Japan. She says about her work: "For me photography is neither a way to record, nor a method of explanation of either things or phenomena.Photography is a form of experimentation to create a new world through the lens while consciously working with the ambiguity of visual sensation, as well as colours, composition, and fluctuations of perspective."The ALPA Award and photo basel got a lot of press coverage, below you find an excerpt from the Financal Times, June 14, 2018.
