Galician Prize for Contemporary Photography

The OF Outono Fotográfico Association, the Xunta de Galicia (Galician Government), and the Deputación de Lugo (Lugo City Council) are organising the XII PREMIO GALICIA DE FOTOGRAFÍA CONTEMPORÁNEA (GALICIA AWARD OF CONTEMPORARY PHOTOGRAPHY), to promote contemporary photography and the ethical issues that contemporary art generally raises with regard to forms of domination and the imposition of limits on thought. To promote the creation of a photographic space in Galicia that complements the one created over more than three decades by the Festival Outono Fotográfico by encouraging proposals of a visualphotographic nature from both national and foreign authors.

Any author who works with photography, regardless of their nationality, will be able to take part, bearing in mind that the jury’s verdict will be particularly influenced by its inclusion in the discourse of contemporary photography.
