Tatiana Plotnikova, Christian Klinger and Oleg Videnin, Krasnodar, Russia, 2011. Photo by Sohei Yasui.
Photovisa is a ambitous fotofestival in Krasnodar, Russia, which was held the 4th time this year. By the shown photographers there were also some of my loved russian photographers like Oleg Videnin and also the unknown and mysterious russian photographer Georgy Kolosov. Georgy Kolosov is a very special class, because his photography is for foreigners a huge miracle. I never understand his work, which is always a good sign. In Krasnodar I had the possibiliy to view some of his photographs as orginal print. It was a touching pleasure.
The head of the festival is Irina Tchmyreva and a bunch of enthustiastic people organize this outstanding event. It is really a professional and hearty fotofestival. Dear reader, if you are interested to get in touch with russian photography, you should visit photovisa.

Excerpt from the article at EYEMAZING:
Photographer and director Christian E. Klinger has made an intimate portrait of several young American photographers. Tanyth Berkeley photographs people in the streets of New York whom she calls “Survivors”; Ashley MacLean and Traci Matlock (a.k.a. Rose and Olive) explore sexuality; and Elinor Carucci photographs herself and her family. In making this film, the filmmaker sought and experienced a touching sense of truth, which he shares with us in this interview.
