以前、[報道写真/フォトジャーナリスト] トピックのhttp://mixi.jp/view_bbs.pl?id=16023342&comm_id=206259(下記に転載しました)でご紹介していたポーランドのKonkurs Fotografii Prasowejですが、受賞を知らせてくれていたWasifから、この写真コンテストの延長で現在町でTainted Teaの写真が使われているビルボードの写真を送って来てくれたので情報の再掲示とともに、ここでご紹介します。
撮影者はポーランドの写真家Rafal Milach(この写真はちょっとしたスナップショットという感じですが...)。加筆すると、このWasifとRafalhttp://www.rafalmilach.com/は今年のWorld Press Photo 2007 Joop Swart Masterclass(http://mixi.jp/view_bbs.pl?id=17669010&comm_id=206259|こちらも情報を下記に転載しときます)に選ばれた12人の2人という間柄でもあります。

※このWasifはpdfX12の記念すべきvol.1に寄稿をしてくれた写真家です。という訳で、未見の方は是非、ご覧頂きたいと思います。

KONKURS FOTOGRAFII PRASOWEJ 07

KONKURS FOTOGRAFII PRASOWEJ 07(ポーランド)第一回目のプレス写真コンテストの結果が発表されたそうです。
http://www.kfp.net.pl/index.php?PID=1&lang=en

実のところ、この賞の存在はバングラデシュの写真家Munem Wasifから、彼のtainted teaの写真がcontemporary issuesのカテゴリーで一位に選ばれた事を知らせてくれたために知った次第です。

まだ完全にサイトの方に情報が更新されていない様で、ぱっと見ると、現時点では訳が分からない感じです。せめて、受賞者のカテゴリーがこの時点でもあって欲しいのですが...。

賞については英文ですが、こういう概要です。

Contest
The Press Photography Contest 2007

The first edition of the Press Photography Contest, which was announced in December 2005, met with a favourable reception in the world of press photography. 650 submitted photo stories, consisting of over 5000 images, which received a great recognition from the panel of judges as well as an enthusiastic response from their viewers, not only exceeded our wildest expectations but also proved that press photography enjoys considerable and still growing popularity in Poland. Encouraged by this remarkable success of the Contest's first edition, we have decided to continue with the initiative of supporting press photography in Poland by starting its second, somewhat modified, edition. This year, all the submitted works will be evaluated and awarded by a jury whose members are famous photographs and photo-editors working for widely-known magazines and main Polish newspapers.

There are four categories of photo stories:
- people in the news
- arts and culture
- contemporary issues
- sport
single photo category
- news of the year

The submission deadline is February 6, 2007.

The total worth of the contest awards is 50.000 PLN

The post-contest exhibition will be held in the Warsaw Traffic Club for three weeks. Then the awarded photographs will also hit the town. Just like a year ago, they will be displayed on billboards in main Warsaw streets, and, what is more, this year they will be also visible on the city buses.

The Press Photography Contest is directed to professional photographers working for photographic agencies, newspapers and magazines' editorial offices as well as freelancers. A panel of professionals will guarantee its high level and standard. The Contest follows the example of World Press Photo and thus has similar foundations, that is the promotion of photojournalism as a way of perceiving and representing people and everyday events as well as documenting the reality around us. The Contest aims at emphasizing the importance of press photography not only in the art of journalism but also in everyday life as such. Apart from that, it also tries to show the meaning of the photojournalistic esthetics and the language it uses.

The Contest presents the condition and level of Polish press photography, whose main representatives are widely recognized and achieve spectacular successes in various international contests. At the same time, it gives the chance to compare how, if at all, Polish and foreigner photographers differ in their perception of the surrounding world.
The main assumption of the Contest is to support and popularize the works of professional press photographers, whose courage, sensitivity, devotion and the so-called "sharp eye" deserve the highest respect. It is also an attempt to consolidate the world of photojournalists by proving that, irrespective of competing interests of various agencies and publishing companies, sharing a common, very often inspirational and valuable, idea can and, in fact, do matter.

今年度のWorld Press PhotoによるJoop Swart Masterclasshttp://www.worldpressphoto.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=984&Itemid=50&bandwidth=highの12人の参加者が発表されました。

応募で集められたポートフォリオから選出し、その年に設定されたテーマに沿ったフォトストーリーの為にアサインされるというもので、今年は113のノミネートから12人が選ばれています。

これからの経験やキャリアにも大きく生かされるであろうこのプログラムに選ばれるという事は才能ある若手のフォトジャーナリストたちにとって光栄な事に違いないと思います。そして、常々、欧米主導のメディアジャーナリズムのあり方に強く疑問を抱いている才能や経験なら引けを取らない途上国の写真家たちにとって、こういう場で公平に活動する機会を与えられるという事も大きな意味があると思います。
今年の12人のリストはこちら。

• Ghaith Abdul-Ahad, Iraq
• Olivia Arthur, United Kingdom
• Christoph Bangert, Germany
• Kate Brooks, USA
• Alexandra Demenkova, Russia
• Agnes Dherbeys, France
• Cédric Gerbehaye, Belgium
• Rafal Milach, Poland
• Munem Wasif, Bangladesh
• Sirio Magnabosco, Italy
• Irina Werning, Argentina/Germany
• Xin Zhou, People's Republic of China

今年のフォトエッセイのテーマは[fragile]です。


因に、今年から開始したプロジェクト(pdfX12|photo documentary folioX12)で関わりがあるMunem Wasifが12人の一人に選出された旨を知らせてくれました。
このpdfX12の創刊号がバングラデシュの茶農園の労働者たちの苦悩をまとめた彼のフォトストーリーTainted Teaでした。このpdf版でダウンロードしてご覧になれます。是非、未見の方はご覧下さい。ダウンロードはhttp://www.reminders-project.orgより
添付写真はそのpdf版からの一部です。

下記2007 Joop Swart Masterclassのページより。

Participants selected for 2007 Joop Swart Masterclass
Twelve young photographers will come together with a group of masters for the 14th annual World Press Photo Joop Swart Masterclass to be held from 3 to 8 November 2007 in Foam_Fotografiemuseum, Amsterdam.

The 12 participants were selected from a total of 113 international candidate portfolios. During the masterclass meeting, the participant photographers will interact with seven prominent experts, discussing technical, journalistic and ethical aspects of their work.

The following 12 photographers were selected to participate in the 2007 masterclass:

• Ghaith Abdul-Ahad, Iraq
• Olivia Arthur, United Kingdom
• Christoph Bangert, Germany
• Kate Brooks, USA
• Alexandra Demenkova, Russia
• Agnes Dherbeys, France
• Cédric Gerbehaye, Belgium
• Rafal Milach, Poland
• Munem Wasif, Bangladesh
• Sirio Magnabosco, Italy
• Irina Werning, Argentina/Germany
• Xin Zhou, People's Republic of China

The purpose of the masterclass is furthering young and talented photographers' insight in photojournalism. In preparation for the meeting, the participants will execute a photo essay on one single theme, which for this year is: ‘Fragile'. The essays will be discussed during sessions with the masters and edited into a publication.

The participants were selected by an independent, international selection committee consisting of Carolyn Cole (USA), photographer Los Angeles Times, Frédérique Deschamps (France), picture editor Le Monde, Susan Meiselas (USA), photographer Magnum Photos, Adriaan Monshouwer (the Netherlands), commercial director Hollandse Hoogte and Aidan Sullivan (UK), Vice President Photo Assignment Getty Images North America.

Committee members commenting on the experience:
"In the coming years, I look forward to seeing the progress of these promising photographers from around the world." (Carolyn Cole)
"An amazing and enriching experience to see so much quality, diversity and passion for photography." (Adriaan Monshouwer)
"Knowing how important it is for these extraordinary photographers to be part of this prestigious event, makes our role tough, but so rewarding." (Aidan Sullivan)

The Joop Swart Masterclass is supported by Delta Lloyd Group, Stichting Democratie en Media and Canon, who provides all participants with a grant. World Press Photo receives support from the Dutch Postcode Lottery and is sponsored worldwide by Canon and TNT.
