Sportfolio 2013: The 1st Sports Photojournalism Festival
Only sport is able to bring together so much of the world, across borders and ages. It’s electric and emotional.
PIctures of sports are a particulary dramatic form of documentary. Some of them, capturing moments and athletes at the height of their powers, become works of art independent of the sporting event where they were taken. They are astonishing, upsetting, staggering and transportative.
By bringing together the best is sports photography, the Festival Sportfolio, the first of its kind, aims to pay tribute to the neglected talent of sports photographers.
