So what's the deal with these LomoWall exhibitions?

We want to bring countries, cultures and people together through the power of photography. We’re bridging borders with the biggest series of LomoWalls ever constructed, and we want you to get involved by setting up your own LomoWall exhibition!

How do I set up my own LomoWall Exhibition?

We'll send you a selection of the winning photos that we collected from all the amazing competitions that will be running until the end of August 2017. This selection will contain digital copies of photos of your own country along with photos from five other countries on the other side of the world. All you need to do is print them out, build a LomoWall, and invite all your favorite people to come celebrate your own cultural mosaic! Here a few tips on building your own LomoWall. Take a look at them and then see what you can create!

Tell me more about the prizes and giveaways!

Everyone who builds their own LomoWall exhibition and sends us some fantastic pictures of its opening night will receive 50 EUR of vouchers to spend in the Lomography Online Shop. We’ll also enter your name into a prize draw to win one of five special edition Lomo LC-A+ cameras. And if you don’t win one of these, we’ll send you a special edition Diana F+ camera instead! What's more, if you submit your shots to our LomoWall competitions and you're selected as one of the winners, you'll automatically be entered in the special category of this year’s TEN AND ONE Annual Lomography Photo Awards. That means that you'll be in the running to win heaps of prizes, including an artistic residency at Lomography HQ in Vienna! So if you haven't shared your photos yet, head over to the Lomography Competitions page and submit your shots now.

Which countries can participate?

We created 196 competitions based on all the wonderful countries that our Community has taken us to over the years, but everyone is welcome to set up a LomoWall exhibition anywhere in the world — or even out of it! We want to get to know each and every magical corner of the globe, so don't be afraid to take us there.

Where can I set up my LomoWall Exhibition?

We want you to kick your imagination into overdrive and help us create a global exhibition unlike any other. Set up your LomoWall in a cave filled with fairy lights, an igloo in the midst of the tundra, a ship sailing the seven seas — from the top of Mount Everest to the bottom of the Grand Canyon, we want you to help us cover the world with LomoWalls.

How do I sign up?

It's super easy to sign up to create your own LomoWall exhibition. All you need to do is fill in this form.
Make sure you've set up a LomoHome so that we can send you your shop voucher!

When should my LomoWall exhibition take place?

Since our competitions end on 31 August 2017 and we'll need time to select the winning photographs, it would be best to set up your exhibition in October of this year.

Are you ready to go global? Let your imagination take over and sign up now to start celebrating with us!

Hello, maybe I'll build a lomowall in my school, but only from september. Even if in this month terms are expired, I'll happy to share the lomolove with you!
sirio174 · 2017-07-19 11:40
So for now I cannot send you the official request because I need a permission from my school before.
ellakoppensteiner · 2017-07-19 12:25
hey @sirio174 ! Since the competitions will run until the 31st of August we would start with the exhibitions in October, so I hope this would still work out for you! Let us know :) !

I'd like to build a lomowall in Mexico City

Is it possible to build a LomoWall just for the "opening night". Or should it stay at its place for a longer period?
ellakoppensteiner · 2017-07-20 09:20
Hey @Loewon ! Sure! Feel free to organise your exhibition as fits you best, from 1 day to a few weeks, everything is possible! :)
loewon · 2017-07-20 10:10
@ellakoppensteiner great Thanks :)
cmart · 2017-07-23 01:37
I'm seriously considering doing a lomowall in either Racine or Kenosha, WI
prntmkrap · 2017-07-24 15:00
How many images will be sent from each country? Or just the total number of photos for the wall?Trying to plan ahead. Thanks.
ellakoppensteiner · 2017-07-24 15:28
Hi @prntmkrap ! Usually we print each image several times and then create a nice pattern - with all the images - to build our LomoWalls. This means that you can print each image you will get as many times as you like to create your own pattern, so you decide how many final images you'll have for your LomoWall. I hope this can help you when planing your exhibition! Looking forward to seeing your LomoWall! :)

@ellakoppensteiner
Where is the Mexico Lomo Wall?
I´m crying.
ellakoppensteiner · 2017-07-25 12:29
Hey @holgardo! We only launched a few of our competitions last week, more will be added this week and the week after. So no worries, Mexico will be there in no time ;) Looking forward to seeing your photos!
holgardo · 2017-07-25 16:14
@ellakoppensteiner Thank you for the information. My crying turned into a smile immediately.
;)
ellakoppensteiner · 2017-07-25 16:22
@holgardo haha happy to hear that!
sirio174 · 2017-07-26 13:48
Form filled, I'm ready!

Is there a minimum size for a lomowall?
ellakoppensteiner · 2017-07-27 14:41
@saidseni It would be great if you could have a minimum of 500 photos, but you can set this up as you wish, thus in one big LomoWall or splitting them in a few smaller ones. Whatever fits better to your exhibition site and plan :)
saidseni · 2017-07-27 15:25
@ellakoppensteiner : Thanks. Everybody who fills the form can participate or are you going to make a selection? Just to know how to deal with my expectations... ;D
ellakoppensteiner · 2017-07-27 15:35
@saidseni Everybody who fills in the form can participate - we will follow up with all of you signing up for this. The final prizes will be given out to those who send us photos of their exhibitions :)
