The OFF PHOTO Festival in Arles, returning in 2025, continues to establish itself as a cornerstone event within the international photography scene. Revered by passionate enthusiasts, professional artists, and key figures across the photography industry, this festival serves as a vibrant space where creativity knows no bounds. Through its celebration of artistic freedom, inclusivity, and innovation, the OFF Festival offers a rich and dynamic platform for showcasing forward-thinking photographic projects. It invites audiences to experience the future of image-making firsthand—introducing emerging voices while also paying tribute to the achievements of well-established artists. The event stands as a remarkable opportunity to engage with new talent, discover bold narratives, and embrace the constantly evolving landscape of contemporary photography.

As part of this year’s highlights, the Révélation Saif x La Kabine 2025 Award aims to champion fresh perspectives within the photography world. This award is specifically tailored to shine a light on artists whose work has not yet been exhibited or widely recognized. It is a purposeful effort to elevate the visibility of underrepresented photographic expressions, offering a valuable stepping stone for photographers at the beginning of their journey. The goal is to provide meaningful support while enriching the contemporary photography scene with diverse and authentic viewpoints.

By recognizing projects that might otherwise go unnoticed, the award strives to encourage creativity that is both bold and original. It is a celebration of untapped talent and a commitment to ensuring that these voices are heard and appreciated.

In a strong gesture of support for new creation, the Board of Directors of SAIF has chosen to sponsor this award for its 2025 edition. The award will be formally presented during a dedicated screening in the opening week of the Rencontres d’Arles and the OFF PHOTO Festival, taking place from July 7 to 12, 2025. In the spirit of accessibility and fairness, the total prize amount of €5,000 will be divided to reward both the overall winner—with a €2,000 grant—and the 30 selected finalists, who will share the remaining €3,000. This structure ensures broad visibility for multiple emerging talents, all contributing to the vibrant tapestry of today’s photographic art.
