Festival Images is launching another round of its photography project competition. Artists and photographers have until March 9 to enter the Vevey International Photography Award.

The purpose of this award is to provide crucial assistance for projects that have not been realised in the form of various grants up to CHF 40,000 (around 33,000 EUR) in order to bring a photography initiative to completion.

At the end of May 2015, a jury of visual arts professionals will choose the projects that will be supported by the Festival. The winning projects will be realised within the following year and previewed at the next Festival Images in September 2016.

This competition represents a unique form of support for contemporary original works, with a free choice of subject matter and genre.

The Vevey international Photography Award 2015/2016 is open to all artists, and professional or student photographers. An amount of CHF 40,000 (around 33,000 EUR) is awarded for the development, realisation and presentation of the winning project. There is also the potential to win other prizes and receive exhibitions proposals at Quai1 or during the Festival Images.

Apply here between January 12 and March 9: http://www.images.ch/2014/en/
