Wiesbaden Photo Days - Open Call 2025

We are looking for photo series/video works that deal with this year's festival theme "Future? What future?!" An independent conceptual implementation should be recognizable.

We ask ourselves: What kind of new world do we want to create together? What other worlds are even possible? How do we want to live? What do we wish for? What do we dream of? What do we want to save from the past and present for the future or even rediscover? What can we learn from other societies? How can we rethink what seems unchangeable? What new forms of living together are even desirable? And how do we achieve that? And what future does the medium of photography have – in the age of AI?

These are just some of the questions that the Wiesbaden Photo Days would like to address. The submitted works should question supposed certainties, provide food for thought, raise hopes and open up new horizons. What we do not expect are patent remedies or blanket solutions.
