About

12th March – 11th April 2021
Virtually & in venues across Derby

The theme for the tenth edition of FORMAT – the UK’s leading international photography festival – is Control.

Control can be passive, progressive and aggressive. Control can provide opportunities or suppress ambitions. It can be birth control, state control, border control, remote control, self-control, command and control. We can be in control, out of control, beyond control.
Founder and director of FORMAT Louise Fedotov-Clements, along with fellow FORMAT curators, Niamh Treacy, Laura O’Leary and Peter Bonnell, have curated the exciting festival programme featuring over 90 projects by artists, collectives and the mass participation Instagram event, inspired by Covid19, #massisolationFORMAT.
