The ShowOFF Section is one of the most important parts of the Krakow Photomonth Festival. Every year it presents premiere projects by young artists selected through an open competition. The winners’ original projects will be exhibited during the ShowOFF Section in the form of an exhibition or photobook. The winning projects will be displayed at a collective exhibition in a specially arranged area during the Krakow Photomonth Festival, so that viewers will be able to experience the various projects.

The Foundation for Visual Arts was established in 2001 in Krakow to promote and popularise the visual arts in Poland. Its focus is on photography and its mission is to seek new definitions it in the context of contemporary art, history and sociology. The Foundation of Visual Arts is the organizer of the annual Krakow Photomonth Festival.
