THE CARMIGNAC PHOTOJOURNALISM AWARD : SEVEN YEARS OF COMMITMENT TO FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION
The Carmignac Foundation launched the Carmignac photojournalism Award in 2009 with the aim of supporting and celebrating photojournalism. This unique Award funds a photographer to explore an area of the world at the centre of geostrategic conflicts, where human rights and freedom of speech are violated. Previous subjects have ranged from Gaza (Kai Wiedenhöfer), Pachtounistan (Massimo Berruti), Zimbabwe (Robin Hammond), Chechnya (Davide Monteleone), Iran (Newsha Tavakolian), lawless areas in France (Christophe Gin) and Libya.
A key aim of the Award is to support the winning photojournalist by providing a global platform for their work to be seen and collected. The Carmignac Foundation collaborates with the winner throughout the entire project by offering the laureate 50,000€ to go into the field, financing a monograph and developing and staging an international touring exhibition upon their return, in Paris and then in London at the Saatchi Gallery. Four photographs from this work will be integrated into the Carmignac Collection.
