Art Forward is an international arts production company based in London, UK. Our projects promote cross-cultural dialogues through photography, film and the visual arts, breaking down cultural, social and political barriers in society.
Our Projects
A multi-media project created by Yamam Nabeel spanning documentary films, photography and curatorial exhibitions. Originating as a search for his lost heritage in exile through the life stories of immigrant Iraqi artists, the project has developed to embrace collaborations with artists and filmmakers from across the Arab World.
An international project inviting global documentary photographers to share their stories of migration and identity, investigating community and culture in a world of populism, conflict and division. Devised by Andrew Etherington, Document Now exhibitions celebrate diverse and personal approaches to photography from around the world.
Bringing established and emerging photographers together, Memories Carried is a touring exhibition project that provides a platform to raise funds for grassroots charitable causes, in collaboration with international partners and community groups.
