Prix Elysée - call for applications
The Musée de l’Elysée is proud to launch a new photography prize this year! The call for applications to the Prix Elysée with the support of Parmigiani Fleurier is open until April 25!
Who can apply? The Prix Elysée is open to promising photographers or artists using photography, regardless of nationality, who have already enjoyed their first exhibitions and publications. Photographers must be recommended by a reputed professional in the fields of photography, contemporary art, cinema, fashion, journalism or publishing. There is no imposed theme or preference for any particular photographic genre or technique.
How does it work? The Musée de l’Elysée will select eight nominees upon their entry portfolios. Each will receive a contribution of 5’000 CHF towards the initial presentation of an original and new project in the nominees’ book, published for the occasion. This book will accompany the nominees’ complete portfolios in the final consideration before the jury of experts. The winner will receive 80’000 CHF to be divided between the completion of the proposed project and the publication of the accompanying book within one year. A curator from the Musée de l’Elysée will advise the winner throughout this process. Both the project and book will be presented at the Nuit des images
