Picturehouse New York opens in new venue on October 29th

PAVILION, NY, August 21, 2008 – Stock imagery buyers are invited to meet image suppliers from around the globe in New York on October 29th. This, the 8th annual Picturehouse New York event, is the premier forum for keeping abreast of developments in the stock industry, bringing together over a hundred image suppliers for a day.

This year’s event moves to the prestigious Altman Building in New York’s Chelsea District, and will retain the fun and friendly atmosphere Picturehouse is known for, including free refreshments (including beer and wine after 5PM), many prizes and giveaways. Entry is free to professional stock imagery buyers and researchers – pre-registration required: www.picturehouse-us.com/newyork

“It’s a great venue for learning about new vendors and seeing – sometimes for the first time – vendors we already do business with,” said Christie Silver, McGraw-Hill School Solutions Group, who has attended for many years. “In my opinion, the New York event should be held twice a year, not once. It’s that good.”

More than 25 first-time exhibitors are among this year’s line-up, which include industry giants, such as Corbis, Jupiterimages, Getty Images and Masterfile; agencies representing photographers, such as Digital Railroad, IPNstock, and PhotoShelter; and a host of specialty niche archives ranging from aerospace (Boeingimages), agriculture (Grant Heilman), architecture (LOOK), humor (The Cartoon Bank), fine art (akg-images), food (Stockfood), historic (North Wind Picture Archives, Everett Collection), medical/science (Phototake), travel (Danita Delimont Stock Photography), to nature and wildlife (Nature Picture Library, National Geographic Stock). All licensing and pricing models will be represented including rights managed, royalty free, subscription and microstock. The event also features a variety of companies providing innovative software solutions to buyers.
