Boosting Photographic Projects

The Art Photo BCN reviews offer a unique opportunity to present photographic projects to a panel of international experts. Through this annual selection process, we aim to recognize and reward the quality and approach of the projects, providing participants with valuable feedback and creating new opportunities in the contemporary photography field.

The process is simple: photographers can submit their projects through an open call, and a selection committee, composed of curators, gallery owners, and other industry experts, will choose 8 finalist projects. The selected participants will have the chance to present their work in a round-table session before the group of reviewers, who will offer recommendations and establish a direct connection with the presented projects.

Project Awards: 2,000€ and Visibility Opportunities

The winning project will receive 2,000€, and its work will become the image of the next edition of Art Photo BCN, gaining significant visibility. Additionally, the winning project will have an exclusive space for its presentation at the following year’s fair, providing the opportunity to be seen by an international audience and build valuable connections with collectors and professionals in the field.

In addition to the main award, which will be decided by a vote among the reviewers, other prizes will be awarded to the finalist projects, recognizing the quality and potential of several proposals in the form of grants, production, and exhibitions. Furthermore, each of the 8 selected projects will receive a 200€ fee to cover the expenses related to their participation in the reviews, reflecting our commitment to the development and sustainability of photographic projects.

The Art Photo BCN reviews are a key platform for promoting valuable photographic projects, offering a unique opportunity for these projects to be seen, appreciated, and supported on their path toward consolidation and recognition.
