McDERMOTT GALLERY (Old Market)
McDermott Gallery has been a highly regarded partner and valued supporter since the festival’s early days. The gallery near “old market”, once a historic shop house and located in a lively alleyway, is a firm favorite of many festival visitors and guests. We are happy to showcase two exhibitions from our 2014 Programme at McDermott Gallery. The Gallery first opened its doors at the FCC Angkor in 2004, exhibiting a definitive collection of photography of Angkor by John McDermott, as well as rotating exhibitions by Asian and international artists. The following years saw an explosion in creativity in Siem Reap, as international artists flocked to the town for inspiration, and Cambodian artists reclaimed their artistic heritage, pursing new styles and themes. On the heels of this energy, the historic shop house in “old market” area was renovated, and opened as a second gallery in 2006, with the broader mission of showcasing artwork focused on Cambodian and Asian themes. In fall of 2012, the flagship gallery at the Raffles Grand Hotel opened its doors.

E.F.E.O.
For the third year in a row, E.F.E.O. will host an exhibition for the 10th Edition of the Angkor Photo Festival. Take a break from the hustle and bustle of the busy old market area, and enjoy the shady river-side gardens. The E.F.E.O (Ecole Française d’Extreme-Orient) in Siem Reap Cambodia has been a major actor in the restoration of the Angkor monuments and the development of Khmer studies for over a century . It was in 1907 that the E.F.E.O. was charged with the inventorying and preservation of the Angkor Archaeological Park. It established a permanent branch named Angkor Conservation in order to safeguard the many temples scattered through some 400 km2 of forest until the Khmer Rouge took power in 1975. In 1992, the Cambodian government invited the E.F.E.O. to return to its former location in Siem Reap. Since then, many new research and restoration projects have been carried out in collaboration with APSARA, the Cambodian organization responsible for managing the site, and within a system of international cooperation coordinated by UNESCO.
