Images’ 6th Annual Photography CompetitionThe competition is open to professional artists and photographers,
as well as to photographer trainees. Its first aim is to
discover new talents, with no age criteria, and give them the
opportunity to realize a unique project. The selected project
will be exhibited at IMAGES' 08, which will take place in
Vevey, Switzerland in 2008. The international jury, chaired
this year by Balthasar Burkhard, is composed of key figures
from the visual arts world. It will make its choice on the basis
of proposed files and will designate the winners of the Grand
Prix International de Photographie de Vevey as well as other
awards and distinctions. The main criteria for selection will be
the richness of ideas reflected in the content as well as in the
form of the work. Love Your Earth CompetitionAs each day goes by, the problems facing the earth become
more and more apparent. It’s quite clear that many things must
change. Throughout history, graphic design has proved itself as
one of the best means to instigate a change in society and communicate
the urgency of action. We are looking for graphic artworks
that will raise awareness of the environmental issues
affecting our delicate planet. Your graphic design work should
provoke a positive change in the many things that are compromising
our biosphere.
