Noorderlicht

Noorderlicht (Dutch for "Northern Light") is a multifaceted and international platform for documentary photography.

Based in Groningen, Netherlands, Noorderlicht organizes an annual photo festival, runs a photo gallery, a publishing house and provides an educational programme and discussions, lectures and masterclasses.

Ten years later, the Photofestival was launched, becoming one of the most important international photographic events.

[2] In 1991, the festival became a biennale, until 2000, when it was restored as an annual event.

From this date, the festival site has alternated between Groningen and Friesland.
