At the 5 Boro Foto Fest, every image is a human original, no AI allowed
In a world where generative AI floods the marketplace, the 5 Boro Foto Fest makes a refreshingly bold promise: every print, book, and zine on the floor is human-made. No algorithms. No shortcuts. Just authentic, original work from real photographers. That commitment to craft is what started this festival, and it remains its beating heart. The event lands Sunday, October 25th at Culture Lab LIC.
The Brands Printing the Vision Behind 5 Boro Foto Fest
A festival built around real, human-made photography still needs real support to happen. The 5 Boro Foto Fest is sponsored in part by Printique by Adorama, Sigma, and Signs365, brands that make sense for an event built around actual prints and actual photographers. This is a celebration of the tangible, the curated, the authentic. For a deeper look at how the industry is evolving, read our coverage of Getty's new chapter.
Showcase Your Photography: Vendor Applications Open for 5 Boro Foto Fest
The 5 Boro Foto Fest is opening vendor applications, and we think that is exactly what this craft needs. This festival is built for photographers who want to sell their printed art in person, moving beyond the endless scroll of online posts. We love that focus on tangible, curated work. It is a fresh, authentic face for an industry that has felt stale for too long.
Artistic Vision Prevails: Gaza Photo Returns to Sports Festival
A single image from Gaza held its ground this week. A court ordered a sports photography festival to reinstate an Associated Press photographer's soccer match photo after organizers removed it under outside pressure. That decision matters. It reminds us that images carry weight, and silencing them rarely serves truth. The festival's choice to yield was a misstep; the court's correction feels like a quiet win for artistic integrity.
Real Photography Reclaimed: Announcing the 5 Boro Foto Fest

No algorithms, no generative AI, just humans and their craft. We're championing sustainability for our industry, one tangible frame at a time.
