Deadline: April 30, 2013.
The Magnum Foundation and the Inge Morath Foundation announce the
12th annual Inge Morath Award. The annual award of $5,000 is given to a
female photographer under the age of 30, to support the completion of a
long-term documentary project.
One award winner and up to two finalists are selected by a jury
composed of Magnum photographers and the director of the Inge Morath
Foundation.
Inge Morath was an Austrian-born photographer who was associated with
Magnum Photos for nearly fifty years. After her death in 2002, the Inge
Morath Foundation was established to manage Morath’s estate and
facilitate the study and appreciation of her contribution to
photography. Because Morath devoted much of her enthusiasm to
encouraging women photographers, her colleagues at Magnum Photos
established the Inge Morath Award in her honor. The award is now
administered by the Magnum Foundation as part of its mission of
supporting the next generation of socially-conscious documentary
photographers, in cooperation with the Inge Morath Foundation.
