Call for Entries for Photographers
Presenting a distinctive competition dedicated to honoring the art of photography in both its dynamic color and black-and-white forms, we extend an invitation to photographers to exhibit their skills in these two distinct yet equally expressive mediums.
Featuring in our logo are images by Joaoi Coelho, capturing the essence of black and white, and Amber Seat, masterfully showcasing the vibrancy of color.
We are delighted to introduce the Color Photography Award, an exclusive opportunity for artists proficient in the language of colors. This award recognizes the profound impact of color in photography, transcending aesthetics to evoke emotions and tell compelling stories. In the world of photography, color is not merely an element; it is a potent tool that transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary, infusing life and depth into each captured moment. We welcome you to exhibit your talent and passion for color in this prestigious competition. Let your creativity shine through the lens as you demonstrate how you harness the vibrant palette of the world to craft striking, unforgettable images.
Additionally, we extend a warm invitation to participate in the Black & White Photography Award, a celebration that explores the captivating realm of monochromatic imagery. Here, the interplay of light and shadow, coupled with stark contrasts, weaves a narrative that transcends the ordinary. The absence of color in these works is not a limitation but a gateway to artistic expression, where each image serves as a testament to the timeless elegance, dramatic essence, and iconic stature of black-and-white photography. These photographs eschew the need for color, relying instead on the power of composition, the subtleties of texture, and the depth of emotions they encapsulate. The focus on intricate details, the range of tones from deep blacks to luminous whites, and the harmony of these elements collectively create a profound storytelling medium that resonates universally.
Our award is an open call to discover and applaud the expertise of color and black-and-white photographers across diverse cultures and experience levels. Our mission is to provide these artists with a global stage to showcase their distinct visions and narratives through the lens of their cameras. This initiative is crafted not only to acknowledge their artistic talent but also to offer transformative opportunities that could significantly shape their professional paths.
A pinnacle among these opportunities involves showcasing their work at an exhibition during The 8th Biennial of Fine Art & Documentary Photography. This event anticipates being a convergence of diverse, creative minds, providing a platform for photographers to share their passion, draw inspiration, and establish connections within the international photography community.
