One of the most important new features of this eleventh edition is new section URBAN Book Award, that will take its place beside the usual sections destined to Single Photos and Projects & Portfolios.
The new section URBAN Book Award is designed for photographers that feel the limit of 12 photos set for the Projects & Portfolio section as a restraint, and would like to submit extended projects. Extended projects are to be conceived as “dummy”, that is as drafts of photographic book.
The goal is to give the winning photographer the possibility to produce and promote their own authorial project internationally. It will be published as a paper book by dotART / URBAN and officially presented during the festival Trieste Photo Days 2020.
URBAN Book Award will replace TPD Book Award, the “call for dummies” we have launched during the past 3 years on the occasion of the festival, which has allowed us to discover, award and support several talents: in 2017, the Japanese photographer Tadashi Onishi, with Lost in Shinjuku; in 2018, the Greek artist Zisis Kardianos, with the project InLimbo, and the Japanese photographer Hiro Tanaka, with Around 42nd and 7th; in 2019, the Russian photographer Ilya Shtutsa, with the project Not Only Grey.
To enter the contest, you will just have to fill in the online form in the User Area, to upload files and pay the submission fee. Users already registered can log in with the same data.
