Welcome to UP, a group born out of the ashes of the former In-Public. That site is now archived, and we have launched this new one with fresh energy. UP takes a more expansive, less dogmatic view of street photography’s possibilities. We have emerged stronger, a non-profit collective of 24 photographers. We may be spread around the world but we’ve found community together online.
If you’re familiar with the old site, you’ll notice a few new faces here, and some which have departed. The group’s name and website are new, but our mission remains essentially the same, to provide an online resource for contemporary street photography.
This site is the traditional web home of the group. Feel free to explore here, but realize it is a more static venue than our Instagram, which is generally updated daily. Please follow us there if you want to keep up with our day-to-day activities and curatorial takeovers. In the meantime, things are looking UP.
