This photography fair was launched with the aim of rethinking the cultural and creative potential of photography across Asia. By shedding light on regional history, aesthetics, and unique local stories, the fair aims to be a platform that connects galleries, artists, and institutions in Asia. We aim to create a dynamic ecosystem that discovers, contextualizes, and disseminates Asian photographic culture to the world. T3 PHOTO ASIA Fair Director Jeong eun Kim says: "For 2025, Taiwan has been invited as the special guest, and We will focus on the rich photographic traditions that have continued across Asia, as well as the dynamic presence of the art community worldwide. This year's special exhibition will be held in conjunction with the T3 PHOTO FESTIVAL, and based on the annual theme of 'Garden,' we will attempt to redefine the relationship between nature and the city, memory and landscape through photography."
