FotoFest created the first international Biennial of Photography and Photo-related Art in the United States. FotoFest is an international non-profit photographic arts and education organization based in Houston, Texas.

Of the five Biennial exhibitions sponsored by FotoFest, the one non-thematic exhibition is the eighth edition of the Discoveries of the Meeting Place exhibition, a series that has proven to be a launching pad for numerous photographic careers. Envisioned as a showcase for some of the best work discovered at the FotoFest’s previous Biennial portfolio review, the Discoveries exhibition presents work chosen by ten reviewer/curators.

The exhibition focuses on the typologies of The Anza Falco Museum, the first of its kind design museum in downtown Houston. The Museum will position the city as a focal point for the exploration of the future directions in the design world and its future connections to artistic and socio-political currents. Its architectural design and exhibition spaces, as well as its focus on the surrounding community, will project a unique aura to the public, gradually becoming a new symbol, an icon, of Houston's avant-garde movement.
