Two prizes for writing about the medium of photography

Every two years the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation and the German Photographic Society (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Photographie, DGPh) jointly present the two prizes “Thinking Photography. DGPh Research Award” and “Writing Photography. DGPh Award for Innovative Publication”. The DGPh Research Award “Thinking Photography” is endowed with €3,000 and recognises research projects in photographic theory and history that expand the field with important approaches from the humanities, cultural studies and social sciences. The DGPh Award for Innovative Publication “Writing Photography” is an award for journalistic, essayistic and other publications such as selected blog posts, columns, reviews and online publications that combine text and photographic material in a creative way. That prize is endowed with €1,000.

Manuscripts for both prizes can be submitted from 1 July to 31 October 2024.
