The sixth annual Talent Issue showcases the work of 16 talented photographers aged between 18 — 35 selected from Foam’s annual Talent Call. Chosen from over 1.000 portfolios submitted from 72 countries – the Talent Issue aims to collate and investigate the future of photography.

This Talent issue pushes Foam Magazines Talent platform into a new era, launching at the first Unseen Photography Fair in Amsterdam. Accompanied by an open air exhibition of the Talents featured in the issue, this provides Foam Talents with an even greater range of opportunities than ever before.

Selecting Foam Talents every year proves an overwhelming and inspiring experience and this issue proves no different, providing an eclectic overview of what the next generation of photographers and image-makers are up to.

Also included, an interview with Michael G Wilson, not just a producer and screenwriter but owner of one of the largest private photography collections to date. Plus an ‘On My Mind’ feature from 6 cultural figures talking about images on their minds and plenty of book reviews.
