OPEN CALL

Submit until 30 april 2021

The Naarden Photo Festival invites professional photographers to submit work for the upcoming edition. By "professional photographers" we mean photographers who have a professional education in photography, who have had an exhibition and/or who are a member of a professional association (like DuPho). The festival invites photographers to connect with the central theme.

DOCUMENTARY AND ARTISTIC - INNOVATION AND cross overs

The festival shows photography that is true to the basic principles of beauty and artistry. It is precisely at this intersection of documentary and artistic photography that visitors can be made set to change or develop their views on current affairs. We challenge entrants not only to show traditional photography, but also to make choices in which the autonomous image stimulates and surprises the viewer.

THE THEME: the art of living

The Art of Living is a photographic solemnisation of life. How do people deal with life in our society, in their bubble or as individuals? How do they celebrate life in good times and how do they experience life in less good times?
During the 2021 edition of the FotoFestival the curators present the search for this immaterial art form, the 'art of living' of self-willed, resilient, artistic, creative and everyday people.

CONTRIBUTION TO THE COSTS

A contribution to the costs of € 35.00 is requested for each registrator. Setting up and running a festival takes a lot of time and money. The FFN is a volunteer organization that is completely dependent on sponsor money, a number of subsidies and entrance ticketsale. It will not surprise you that it is not easy for the FFN to always complete the budget. So far we have succeeded, partly with your help. That is why we also ask for a modest contribution for registration this time. You will receive at least 1 free admission ticket, worth € 19.50.


SELECTION

The entries are selected by the curators.
