This morning, I heard Martin Parr’s voice coming out of the radio… the local PBS affiliate WNYC had a piece on the Festival, which I will post on this website here for your listening pleasure when they make it available.
When I went to their website (note the interesting home page graphics, and PLEDGE) I found the “Street Shots” series which today features Magnum photographer BRUCE GILDEN, among others. Watch the video on that link; you are also invited to submit to the series, details there.
I urge all of you to take a look at work of the finalists for the NYPF Awards. There was fantastic work in the running, and at the event last night this list was cut to a very small group whose works were projected before the names of the winners were announced (5/18: they are now posted at this link).
The overall group of Nominees is worth of looking up the work, international in scope:
| Multimedia Photo / Audio Ed Kashi Jessica Dimmock Vincent Baillais Multimedia Video / Audio Advertising – Series Advertising – Single Editorial – Series Editorial – Single |
Personal work/ fine art – Series Aaron Hobson Adam Bell Andres Gonzalez Anthony Blasko Bill Armstrong Borkur Sigthorsson Christian Patterson Edgar Martins Erica Mcdonald Greg Merhar Gregg LeFevre Harold Glit Kyoko Hamada Lamia Maria Abillama Leslie Sokolow Loreffrey Mark W. Mann Martine Fougeron Michael Corridore Santiago Mostyn Will Steacy Personal work/ Photography Book |
Student Categories

Winners were announced last night, and at the ceremony the list posted on the festival website does not yet list those name.
From the e-blast:
ACP 10 FESTIVAL GUIDE and PORTFOLIO REVIEW REGISTRATION
ACP will begin accepting listings for the ACP 10 Festival Guide on Monday, May 19th at noon, EST. There’ll be an online sign-up, just like last year, and you’ll be able to safely pay with a credit card, via Google Checkout.
Likewise, on Monday, May 26th, at noon, EST, we’ll be opening-up registration for the ACP 10 Portfolio Review. The Portfolio Review will be Saturday, October 11th, and we’re in the process of finalizing our distinguished group of reviewers.
The Portfolio Review will be juried this year, so if you’re getting ready to register, be sure to have 3-5 jpgs ready (and a brief artist’s statement).
We look forward to working with you to ensure ACP 10 is our best festival ever. For year-round updates about the Atlanta photography community, be sure to see ACP Now!.”
