ENTER LUCIE PHOTO-BOOK PRIZE: New Extended Deadline August 31, 2021

2021 Lucie Photo Book Prize

The Lucie Photo Book Prize aims to support photographers in producing and promoting their photo-books through monetary prizes and exposure opportunities. The contest is divided into two separate awards - the Traditional Prize (worth US$3,000) and the Independent Prize (worth US$2,000). The Traditional Prize will be awarded to a photographer, editor, curator, or publisher whose book is commercially produced and distributed, while the Independent Prize will be granted to a photographer, editor, curator, or publisher whose book is published and distributed independently.

The 10-person jury this year consists of many acclaimed industry professionals working in a wide range of fields, from editors and publishers to creative directors. They are Bekie Ntini (Interim Head: Market Photo Workshop), Raina Lampkins-Fielder (Curator at Souls Grown Deep Foundation), Sarah Allen (Curator, Tate Modern), Elizabeth Avedon (Independent Curator, Photography Book and Exhibition Designer), Tracey Woods (Director of Photography, The Luupe), Mariama Attah (Curator, Open Eye Gallery), Emmeline Yong (Co-founder and Director of Objectifs), Chantal Pontbriand (Contemporary art curator, critic, and art consultant), Edie Peters (Manager PhotoQ Bookshop at World Press Photo), and our own Founder and Director Giuseppe Oliverio. 

 The top finalists will have their work displayed in New York City at a date to be set in 2022 as part of the Lucie Foundation’s annual programming. Entry fees vary from US$35 to US$55 depending on the award. An application form and a PDF file of the book must be submitted by 15 July.
