After what has been a truly exciting few months, the Magnum Swap Shop has come to an end. This global online print swapping project, the first of its kind, brought together photographers and enthusiasts from around the world. The event was organized by theprintspace and Magnum, aiming to foster a global community of photographers and provide a unique platform for exchanging creative works.

With over 1,500 submissions, the quality of imagery was incredible, featuring some of the most interesting and engaging work from all genres of photography. Shortlisting just 200 participants was no easy task for the team at Magnum.

Inspired by the headline exhibition at Photo London 2017, David Hurn’s Swaps, curated by Magnum legend Martin Parr, the Magnum Swap Shop allowed all finalists to swap prints with one another.

The private view for Swap Shop was one of the busiest events yet, filling theprintspace Gallery with photography enthusiasts who came together to share knowledge and celebrate each other’s work. For those who couldn’t attend, a few photos from the night capture the lively atmosphere.

Due to the overwhelming response, the exhibition has been extended to run until the 25th of July. Visitors are encouraged to visit theprintspace Gallery to view the exceptional work on display.

The Magnum Swap Shop has proved to be an inspiration, encouraging participants to continue swapping work with fellow creatives.

The exhibition runs from the 30th of June to the 11th of July.
