Renaissance Photography Prize 2012
Photographers, both amateur and professional, have the chance to be judged by some of today’s most acclaimed photographers and to win great prizes, with all proceeds from the competition go to The Lavender Trust at Breast Cancer Care, which supports younger women with breast cancer.
Brett Rogers, Mary McCartney, Michael Hoppen, Monica Allende and Brigitte Lardinois will select 100 photos from thousands of entries to be exhibited at the prestigious Mall Galleries on London’s Pall Mall in June 2012. The shortlisted entries will be exhibited for one week, culminating in a celebrity private view on the evening of 13th June 2012, where the winners will be announced.
Martin Parr, Magnum photographer and Renaissance judge, said: “The Renaissance competition raises cash for a great charity, the Lavender Trust at Breast Cancer Care. It gives the chance for any photographer to have their work judged by a panel of industry luminaries.”
Renaissance was founded in 2006 by Fiona Gifford, a 39-year-old lawyer and keen amateur photographer who was diagnosed with breast cancer aged 34.
In the four years since its inception, Renaissance has raised over £160,000 for the Lavender Trust at Breast Cancer Care. Renaissance is open for entries until 24th February 2012.
There will be five categories this year, Expression, Environment, Memory, Perspective and Disorientation.
