ISSP is a non-commercial platform for contemporary photography, based in Latvia and acting internationally. We offer high-quality alternative education and networking programmes for emerging photographers. Since 2006, ISSP has yearly run the International Summer School of Photography, initiated local and international education and exchange programmes, produced exhibitions, publications and events, and, most importantly, gathered a thriving community of emerging photographers in Latvia and internationally. The ISSP Gallery - an exhibition and events space for contemporary photography - was established in Riga in 2018.
