Photo Collective

Photo Collective Photo Collective grew out of the Fox Darkroom & Gallery which operated as an exhibition and educational space in Melbourne’s inner west.

Photo collective represents photographers, advocates, educators and curators working towards the collective goal of celebrating and contributing to the changing ecology of Australian photography. Beginning as a grass-roots, community orientated organisation, Fox evolved to become an important outpost for the public to engage with photographic work. As an organisation we have a rich history of maki

ng photography accessible to the public. Our team has curated and facilitated numerous exhibitions, book launches, artist talks, award nights and specialty workshops with highly regarded Australian and international photographic artists. Photo Collective connects photographers, writers, curators and artists from all around Australia, forming long standing collaborations and opportunities as we go. We share photography based content on a daily basis, engaging over 150,000 people per year through our website platforms. Through our partnership with Momento Pro, we release multiple publications celebrating Australian photography each year. With a focus on beautiful design and meaningful content, our publications have become a record of our current times and represent a diverse range of voices within Australian photography.
