Spread the Word (1994-1995)

In 1994, the first international Lomographic exhibition is held in Moscow and New York simultaneously. Huge Lomowalls are installed in each city, displaying thousands of images from the other.


Several months later, the first Lomographic Embassy was established in Berlin; a regional outpost for organization of local Lomographic events and members. Building on this success, Lomographic Embassies began to spread throughout the world - to their current number of approximately 60 across all continents. The concept of LomographicTours also launched, enabling intrepid members to organize Lomographic photography expeditions to various exotic destinations. To coordinate all of this spastic growth, lomo.com was launched as the lomographic communication center.


Truly, the whole progression was more spontaneous and hyperactive than could have ever been planned - a vibrant community grew without bounds; driven by the insatiable thirst for wild, vibrant, shocking images.
