As photography takes a leading role in telling some of the most inspiring and powerful stories around the world, Xposure, Sharjah’s second International Photography Festival, is using its world-leading photography platform to share some of the world’s most inspiring stories of visual art.
The man behind the famous British Airways ‘Face ‘commercial, Graham Fink’s unique talent and passion to pursue a career in the creative field became evident when he dressed up as an old man to land his first job in advertising after he was rejected for being too inexperienced.
Graham has won just about every award possible for big brands in a glittering career spanning 25 years, working at a string of the best agencies in the UK, CDP, WCRS, Saatchi’s, and GGT. In 2011, he moved to Ogilvy China where he led the #CokeHands campaign showing outstretched hands sharing a soda, making it the most awarded campaign in Coca-Cola's history.
Fink is never entirely satisfied with the status quo, whether in the world of advertising, or in the world of art. He has long explored ideas of the subconscious and creativity through eye-tracking software and works spanning video, installation, photography, and painting.
Xposure 2017 brings together a galaxy of renowned photographers and international and local experts to share their experiences with photography enthusiasts. The four-day event will include 35 experiential and educational workshops, 25 seminars and a grand total of 27 indoor and outdoor exhibitions.
