Transversalidades 2016: Fotografia sem fronteiras


Deadline:
31.05.2016


The pictures collected under this contest should portray the diversity of territories, societies and cultures of different continents in order to allow crossed looks on the changes which are taking place in different parts of the world, show different styles of social organization and space, capture signs of continuity and change, archaisms and innovations that manifest themselves in the most populous cities or rural areas, located in the most remote and distant border areas, which are facing depopulation. The interpretation of the natural, economic, social and cultural landscapes validated in photos will make them an important component of territorial cooperation, as they are valuable resources of promoting the inclusion of remote and less visible regions.


Photos must allude to one of the following subjects:

Landscapes, biodiversity and natural heritage
(Natural resources and risks; use, management and planning of natural areas; diversity of contexts and intercourse between man and the environment, etc.).

Rural areas, agriculture and settlement 
(Goods and agricultural products, organization of rural areas; places and rural architecture, mobility, etc.).

The city and the urbanization process
(City, architecture, regeneration and urbanization processes; landscapes, urban environments and experiences, etc.).

Culture and society: cultural diversity and social inclusion
(Constructed legacy and cultural heritage, ways of life and social conditions; fight against poverty and social exclusion, etc.)


The Contest is open to all professional and amateur photographers and also to students attending courses which have affinities with the themes of the contest (geography, economics, sociology, journalism, arts, anthropology, geology, biology, environment, etc.).
Since the competition aims to value the aesthetic dimension of the photos, as well as formal, documental and pedagogical coherence of the image, participants must submit their applications to only one of the modalities (Black and White or Color).


Registration is free and universal.

Each applicant may submit a minimum of three (3) and a maximum of six (6) photos in a single contest theme.

Prizes:

The Overall Winner (1) for the best and most complete submitted portfolio will receive 1500 Euros.
The Winner of each theme (4) for the best and most complete portfolio will receive 750 Euros.
